What Good is Free Will ?

[John tower]

Hebrews 12(2): Looking unto Jesus : The author and finisher of our faith : Thank God : Nobody can do a better job then Jesus : Why would we even want a free will ? : Could we do a better job then Jesus ? : Is it just a pride thing ? : We want to do it ! : I am so thankful that I am just clay in the great master potters hands (Jesus), I don’t want my own free will as I could never do as good a job as Jesus ! , I will just try and stay out of the way and let the master potter finish his great work he is doing in me : Praise Jesus : Give me your thoughts on this .

One thing I've noticed about unbelievers is that sometimes they become "do-gooders" in an apparent attempt to demonstrate they are better than the God they don't believe in.

Changed the title to a more provocative title !

Without free will you cannot love.

Without free will you cannot love.

We love him because he FIRST loved us! Jer 10(23): Lord I know that the way of man is not in himself : It is not in man that walketh to direct his own steps!

Therefore you have free will.

What is the difference between a very sophisticated android and being without free will?

Would you prefer the Love of a person who of their own free will choice with other likely alternatives choses to Love you as compared to a person programmed to love you?

Is Godly type Love some programmed Love (instinctive)?

Does Christ Love God out of a free will choice on Christ’s part?

Does God chose to Love us out of His free will?

 

[John tower]

Therefore you have free will.

No the love was first given to us by God , not our free will : Scripture says without Christ we can do NOTHING : but through CHRIST we can do all things : THROUGH CHRIST : not ourselves , only through Christ : Do not falsely exalt man with power he does not have : Christ is the sole author and finisher of our faith : Do you think you could do a better job then Jesus , even if there were such a thing as free will , which there is not : Eph 1(11): Him who works ALL THINGS after the counsel of HIS OWN WILL !

Do you think you could do a better job then Jesus if you had a free will ? If you couldn’t then what good is a free will?

 

[John tower]

Do you think you could do a better job then Jesus if you had a free will ? If you couldn’t then what good is a free will?

Scripture very clearly says that we are just clay in the potters hands : and this is for the best because nobody could do a better job then Jesus : not even you! What is wrong with God running the whole show : Do you have a problem with that ? : Is this Just pride ? I have absolutely no problem with God running the whole show : Why Do you ? ?

Without free will God would be responsible for everyone who is not saved. We are given a choice to follow God or reject Him. The Holy Spirit calls people to God and each person must decide whether or not to listen.

...Why would we even want a free will ? ....

To choose Jesus. Without free will, somebody could make you want something bad. But luckily now you have the chance to choose good.

I’m not sure you’re using “free will” properly in your post.

I’m positive you’re not using colons and commas properly in your post.

John 13(18): He chose us , not the opposite : Eph 1(11): He works ALL things after his own will! There is only God’s will : Why do you people have such a problem with there being only God’s will : Do you think you can do a better job then God? : Is That Why you keep demanding your own will : You have a problem with God’s will : WHY?

Are you going to ask me if I parted my hair the right way this morning : You are a true Pharisee ! Strain at a gnat , and swallow a camel !

Can’t help it, when someone misuses term like “free will”, I can’t ignore it.

We don’t choose : he chooses us : John 13(18) : ALL things are God’s will : Eph 1(11): Why do all you people keep demanding your own will : Do you think you could do better job then God : I assure you , you couldn’t ! So stop demanding your own will and please leave it to God : We will all be better off! All these people want to exalt themselves and help God as if he needs their help : Thank God there is only God’s will, and all things will be done right : despite what these people think!

Get it through your head : There is no such thing : False , man exalting teachings totally block peoples eyes !

You can quote verses to these people till the cows come home and they still can’t see it because false teachings block them!

I’m pretty sure free will is a real thing though, you know?
