Where Credit Is Due
"Joe" wrote in message om... (Bobsprit) wrote in message ... [snip] You say "But He's God. He can do anything He wants. He can stop this." No He can't, and that's what makes Him God. He's not just some more powerful version of us. He can't be arbitrary or capricious like we are. He can't relieve us of the consequences of sin in the world. He can love you enough to purchase a pardon for your sins (it took His life) but He cant make you love Him enough to accept it. He has to be just, He has to be fair, and He has to play by the rules. These rules require Him to allow events that are not consistent with either His pleasure or His desire. When His rules are broken (we call that sin) He has to permit consequences. Joe, I suspect that you already know that I respect your views. I may call you a redneck, but I do it with some respect!! Good post. Regards Donal -- |
