Subject: How did sin originate |
Bible Note: Hello New Creature, you wrote this to Joe(I think): (1) If God is all-powerful, then He could save all persons. (2) If God is all-loving, then He would save all persons. If an all-powerful God can save all, but He will not save all, then God is not all-loving. For a God who is all-loving would save all, if He could save all. There are several logical problems with your argument here (for instance, the ‘if God is all-loving’ clause is not granted nor demonstrated at all, you simply smuggle in an ungranted premise into an argument and thus the argument is questionable, although I don’t think there’s time for me to pin point all the problems now) but at this point I only wish to ask this: if God is omnipotent and ‘all-loving’ (meaning willing to save all) then why all are not saved? If you say because some resist God’s will, I ask, is this resisting more powerful than God’s will? Can you please answer? Also, I don’t think it’s such a good idea to construct complex arguments where the premises are themselves arguments, the good idea, on the other hand, is to keep things simple ;-) |
