This is true. Consider when Jesus asked His disciples who He was

On point! I like your deep thinking. I would say one thing: Words are meaningless without, well, meaning. So, we have to think how we are defining terms. When someone says, "I shall go touch this thing!", isn't he showing us indirectly what he might be wanting to do? It could be true that he...

Yes, in the same way that the child cam continue to desire to fly, try as he might, but still fail. He still desires to fly the most, the fact is he simply can't.

I didn't say that they have the ability to not die. That's not even an ability. You don't do, "not dying". You aren't, "doing living". If they are executed against their greatest desire, they still have free will based on my definition, which is to be able to do your greatest desire within the...

Which implies you could not agree at certain points, lol!

Lol. In fact, you are always using free will, doing what you want most, and it was your desire to do that.

That's what was in my mind when I wrote this. The Spirit of God desires within us to do good things, but we still live in the flesh, that desires bad things. Whichever desire ends up being stronger will be done.

I know. Those are not the words I was intending to start a conversation. Look at the title of the thread.

As I stated before, free will is the ability to do what you want the most within the constraints of our physical reality. I know that many people are still slaves. This in a way applies to work and employees. Slaves obey for a greater want. They don't want to die. Employees obey for the same...

Yeah, that's a great example of what we've been discussing! It's unfortunate for sure. Too bad out world is this way, and it's too bad because it's our fault! We are sinners, but thank God He saved our hearts! Not because what we have done, but because of His great mercy. It happens because of...

That's a great point! You are allowed to choose to become unemployed to not have to do someone if that's what you want most. You used a very interesting phrase I find very applicable and smart to use in this discussion that hits us personally and forces us to think practically: "How bad so you...

You will always do what you want the most. In this comic, he is doing what he wants most. When you go by the social rules, you are doing what you want most. Keep in mind: You can desire to do something you hate and despise.

If you look at my message, you can see that I only used two words within the context of the sentence. And that's true alongside the fact that I used 15 words. I said, "with two words: (the colon shows that I'm about to show you those two words) free will". You are right in what I believe free...

Here we go!

No, Mary wasn't sinless. The Word never says this. It's a traditional belief, not based on the Word.
