1 | what can God do against man's free will? | Bible general Archive 3 | Lemont | 176100 | ||
NOTICE THE WORDS "IF" AND "CHOOSE". THE BIBLE IS FULL OF SUCH REFERENCES TO OUR FREEWILL. OUR CREATOR DOES NOT NEED NOR WANT THE OBEDIENCE OF ROBOTLIKE CREATURES, BUT APPRECIATES AND DESERVES THE LOVING SUBMISSION OF GRATEFUL, MEEK ONES. Deut 30:17-20 states: "But IF your heart turns away and you do not listen, and you are actually seduced and bow down to other gods and serve them, I do tell you today that you will positively perish. You will not lengthen your days on the ground to which you are crossing the Jordan to go to take possession of it. I do take the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you today, that I have put life and death before you, the blessing and the malediction; and you must CHOOSE life in order that you may keep alive, you and your offspring, by loving the LORD your God, by listening to his voice and by sticking to him; for he is your life and the length of your days, that you may dwell upon the ground that the LORD swore to your forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to give to them." |
