Are We Predestined To Die?

The fate of the World as we sense it seems uncomfortably unpredictable these days, well it has always been but never with this much distaste about it. From the Biblical podium one could be sure end time prophecies are being fulfilled since everyday life feels like we facing one war after another, from a rational and I don't mean rational to dispute anything scriptural but from the stand point of men of science and philosophy the world is slowly ticking towards its expiry date due to many factors, over population, global warming, famine, the rise of biological plagues with no foreseeable cure, a meteor somewhere in deep space probably headed for earth that could probably destroy all life forms on impact, the sun exploding etc.

There are undoubtedly two sides to every coin but sometimes I imagine if that coin had two heads, meaning whichever you flip the universe or God has predestined the end of planet earth, think about it this way, like the great flood of Noah's days a force of nature was used to clean the slate. So if total annihilation of dear planet earth should happen it would be prompted by the hand of God facilitated by mother nature.

**Which brings me to the question, are we predestined to die since God knows the beginning and the end or is the concept of freewill leading us to our end? Tricky, but you understand don't you? Should we believe that whatever happens just has to happen or can be avoided? Adam and Eve were meant to fail? Is it all a script and we following to the letter? **

I ponder a lot on it sometimes, I'm pretty sure someone out there can break this down for me, until then I'm just searching for answers, I must remind you I'm still a student in life so it's necessary for me to be inquisitive....Just like you.

So tell me what you think or feel, explain your theories or concept to me if you will I'd be looking forward to your thoughts.

Thanks once again for taking the time out to read and possibly comment.
