    The last comment of mine was meant to be in reply to yours GWH.

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    You seemingly have misinterpreted my comment, very difficult to see any relationship to it in your reply. We're sharing a courteous dialogue on another post, so will give you a little while to better explain what you mean. Can't believe i've been able to post so many comments here today, won't...

    Poll about how you see predestination/freewill

    Conspiracy theorist is a label people often attached to me prior to my waking up. It often bothered them as i'm obviously a very rational, deep thinker, i also knew there was nothing we could do to change events and was terrified about what would become of my children. Knowing the LORD some now...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Well, what goes on in your mind is pretty free, it's twixt you and the LORD only unless you will otherwise. However, enacting your will freely requires unilateral action, which is usually only possible if it doesn't impact other people negatively. Even tyrants can't impose free will unilaterally...

    Poll about how you see predestination/freewill

    Cheers for that reply, i find many people to like in some locally but it's the theology side i have issues with. The early Christians got the balance right in my opinion, i live in optimism yet.

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    You carry on believing such rubbish Paul, i don't so have no need to choose between them. Should repeat from time to time on my post that we most certainly have will, agency and choice but not free will. Anything which impacts others needs their approval or cooperation, or do you want to impose...

    Poll about how you see predestination/freewill

    Hadn't heard of Open Theism but the name sounds more my thing, so read up some about it. It isn't more my thing but nor are any of the others, Rational Christian or Apologist are good definitions for my beliefs. I would have been very cosy with the Biblical, early Christian communities for...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Never read Enoch, might be a bit of a hangover from my Catholic school education but even sites like Gotquestions recognise the possibility: https://www.gotquestions.org/Nephilim.html Genesis 6 1-4 also suggests the possibility, so your response seems a bit kneejerk. You haven't read the...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Goodness! You've said something i can actually agree with, we certainly have will/can make choices and that is something where we would have total free will. it neither impacts on nor needs the cooperation of others.

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Think he was much saddened and probably angry at the besmirching of his wondrous creation, however, no way was the flood an act of raw emotion. It was an act of will, a necessary cleaning up process because of angel/human hybrid contamination in my opinion, to a degree where his will could be...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Oh glory! Hoped you were starting to see the error of your trolling ways, however, you've put the kibosh on that with one of the most stupid, irrational, emotive comments, it's ever been my misfortune to see. Woke people? Couldn't you think of anything which actually bears relation to my post?

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Forgot to reply to this yesterday BillyBob, it's such a great comment which i really agree with. I do wonder if Adam and Eve might still be resurrected, hopefully we'll refrain from lynching them if they are. Bit busy with stuff i need to sort out at the moment but so happy i'm visiting the...

    Blessings, hugs and welcome Branch, there are quite a few of us older ladies here, who get on well with each other and have pretty strong opinions. I'm busy sorting out a couple of big installations on two of my rigs currently, should have more time to visit here soon. Hugs and welcome again...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    That made me laugh friend, the Lord was entitled to get a little irate at all our shenanigans but i was thinking more we'd have driven ourselves to extinction in our early days, if we had free will. Only the LORD has the moral chops to cope with FREE will, as i said in my comment above, even the...
