So you’re response is Of course God is omnipotent. You have a bad habit of taking things literally. I clearly mean cannot because He is perfect and only creates perfect things, he could choose to make evil things but then he would break His promise about who He is and God does not break...

When Adam and Eve had the choice to listen to God and chose not to. Where does it say in the Bible that he created sin? Sin has to function through humans. God cannot sin so he cannot create it. It is not in His nature. But as Genesis says, God made us in His likeness and we have the ability to...

Sorry “...that God created sin and not*** humans”.

You just have a different definition of what free will is; you take the term rather literal than most. Like we’re not even really disagreeing, yeah free will doesn’t include that your nose and lungs work but like you said you agree you have some control over your actions so how do you believe...

We’re talking about choices in the sense that it requires thought and conscious, not automatic brain processes. I mean are you really upset that your lungs breathe on their own? LOL

That’s what we’re taking about. The control you do have to make your own decisions about who you are, what you believe and what you do about it. Those are choices. That’s free will. You’re getting into things about bodily human limitations. Yes God limits us but He gives us a choice about...

Yes humans are limited...like you’re talking about the will to fly or something? I mean duh we don’t have the option to do that, you’re defining free will be something else, as I said. We’re talking about how we think and what we believe and what we do about it as free will.

Where in the Bible does it coincide with what you’re saying? You make choices every day, either at your own benefit or detriment...was it not a choice for you to have this discussion? Do you believe you’re not in control of your actions at all?

Free will means God gave you the option to choose. No one said that free will means you can do what you want and God won’t care, which it sounds like that’s how you’re defining it.

I don’t disagree with that so how do I not understand free will? God gave us free will because He wants us to choose to have a relationship with him. Yes he could have made us just live as perfect beings who did right all the time but then that wouldn’t be genuine love, that’d just make us...

Thanks so much everyone for such warm welcomes. Bless you ☺️

What scripture says that?

This was a really good explanation!

If you always feel comfortable at church and never convicted...you need a new church! 😂

Hi everyone! I’m just kind of popping my head into all these threads to which I can relate and just introducing myself as I’m new here. Lol 😊

I love when people say “God doesn’t care what you look like” when there are several scriptures giving specific guidelines about men’s and women’s appearances. 😂

Well remember, God made us gods (little g not big G ;p) too. Think of the scriptures “we are made in God’s likeness” and Jesus is quoted asking the disciples when they were panicking “Are ye not gods?”. Thus, we have the ability to create. But being imperfect, our hands cannot create perfect...

Good morning!
