Subject: What is Free Will? |
Bible Note: Greetings Lionstrong! When it comes to moral choices, yes I am free to choose against these influences. For instance, my father was an extremely jealous person. I saw the way he treated my mother. I had two choices. I could grow up to be like my father, or I could choose a different path. I choose a different path. Growing up, I had many peers who did drugs and alcohol. I choose not to use those things. Now, I don't believe in what some call abosolute freedom. There are limiting factors. For instance, I can't choose to be taller than I am. I can't choose my race. I can't choose to eliminate hell. But, within those sorts of constraints, I am free to make moral decisions. By the way, you've been putting all of the pressure on others! :-) How do you define man's will? Is he free or not? Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
