Bible Note: Greetings Mike! In light of your quote from Martin Luther, I would ask you the same question that I asked John awhile back. If man has no free will, on what basis did Adam and Eve choose to sin? If you really believe that man has no free will, then the following senerio must be true: 1) God makes Adam and Eve sin and then punishes them with death for sinning. 2) All of Adam and Eve's children are born with sin natures and cannot help but sin, and God punishes them with hell. 3) God chooses to save a few of them, and leaves the rest to their ordained fate. So, do you really believe that there is no free will in man at all? Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
