1 | Not my will? | Rom 5:6 | coffee | 58877 | ||
Dear Bartay, Please do not misunderstand me for I am not trying to attack you - You have contradicted yourself in your first sentence. Maybe you see 'follow' and 'free will' as two different things. Do you understand that Jesus had a choice? Do you understand that Jesus chose to obey His FATHER? To follow, to obey is to choose to do so. If you choose to follow you are following the will of GOD. If you choose not to you are following your own will. It seems to me you have agreed with Tim but just use a different language. Ah I just read a previous post and it would seem that you believe Jesus didn't have a choice. Do you not have a choice with your own earthly Father? Do you think your Father loves you more than GOD? Dear Bartay it is a choice and GOD already knows the choice you will make. HE knows and loves you to your very core. As Melanie here in the forum put it, HE is not after you with a baseball bat (or something like that), it is only us humans that do that. May HE bless you always Bartay, luv deb |

2 | Not my will? | Rom 5:6 | bartay | 58879 | ||
Hi deb If my Father said to me, I have set up a lifestyle here for you and you will be lacking in nothing. You will have peace happiness and a wonderful life. There is one thing however that I don't want you to do, do not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good or evil. If you however choose to do so you will be banished from this heavenly place and you will die. Now I had no choice in what my Father had set up for me. I didn't have to say I will obey everything you have asked of me. However, if I wanted to sin and disobey my Father I would have to choose to ignore everything he had done to give me a good life and decide to eat from the tree of good and evil. The free willed choice is sin. Barry |

Dear Barry, I am not going to deny what you say here - you are simply saying it in a different way and that's fine with me. In Jesus, deb |
