What do you mean by those terms
Free will lets man chose evil. Without free will there would be no evil. That is more loving.
I think this is quite a complex topic, that many tomes have been written poring over this subject
Without free will there can be no good either
by both philoophers and theologians
Good? I thought we were talking about love.
God is a god of love and goodness
So as a direct result of these qualities of himself, every action thereof is never in contradiction to his attributes
Why is free will good for a loving God to give when it can only lead to evil?
he cannot act in a way that contradicts his own nature
Are you sure it will only lead to evil
How can you be so sure about something like that
That is the way it turned out.
Either you are good like God or you choose to move away.
This has been an interesting convo mate, but I apologise I have to go
Good night
Okay thanks.
I'm taking the gf to see wonder woman
should be good
@Mros Why can there be no good without freewill?
Because by doing good you must be consciously rejecting evil. Without the ability to do evil you cannot be good. You would merely be acting.
Do you really have the ability to do evil if you never commit evil sometimes?
Can God create evil?
If not he is not all powerful.
It is outside of his nature to do it. He would not do evil because he is all good.
Is God also conscious of evil?
Yes, and in he works around man's evil in order to do good.
So God would never directly command man to do evil
Are you going to bring up Abraham and Isaac?
I was going to bring up Job
Ah, Job.
Killing his family members in order to prove his loyalty to him
It was actually Satan who did that
How would a loving God subject his child to such suffering
If God is all-powerful, and also loving, how can he allow evil to exist
Why not crush it instantly
You've asked this question numerous times and it's been answered numerous times.
There's no need to go around in circles with it.
I've asked it twice and you've avoided the first time
