Do Abrahamics believe that history is a summary of God's will? For example, does God decide who wins a war, how long a country should exist, who gets rich and who gets poor?
>>18064705Read the Book of Daniel for your answer.
>>18064705To a certain extent yes.Some enlightened rulers are clearly divinely guided, if not God-ordained But a millennium is a blink of the eye to GodWe cannot understand His Vision fully unless we know all of human history
>>18064705Yes. 100%. Its the point of the story where God made the king of Babylon eat grass for 7 years with the mind of an animal. That he is the one who rules over all the kingdoms of earth and gives them to whoever he wants, even to the lowliest of men. And when the king acknowledged that then God return the kingdom to him.And when his son inherited his kingdom, God disagreed that he should be king so he removed the kingdom from him and gave it to a Persian.
>>18064705I believe God wills the destruction of the Tartars.
That's a core belief especially in the more hardline traditions. They'd say God sovereignty ultimately directs the flow of history.> Kings rise and fall by His will.
>>18064705> implying God is your personal cuckservative politicianYeah, because the omnipotent creator of the universe is definitely micromanaging which senile old fuck wins the election or which mid-tier nation's economy tanks. It's pure copium to blame/credit God for every L or W in history. If that were true, then God is a massive faggot for willing the Holocaust, child cancer, and every other objectively horrific event. Maybe, just maybe, take some personal responsibility, retard.
>>18066555I'm asking, it's not a rhetorical question
>>18064705No, human free will is not intervened.
>>18064705Yes.>>18068266Neither is God's. He achieves his will while keeping ours by Providence.
>>18068284God‘s will is his wish for you to find him.
>>18064705it's a story of man's conflicting wills being bent toward god's will in the long run.if it hasn't turned out alright, then keep waiting.
>>18064705Yes. There was providencialism, who believesd in this, and whose main's job was to support monarchism. It shortly died out when something fun involving the utter destruction of Lisboa happened, causing a domino fall chain up to the French Revolution
