No. Satan tempted Eve, not God. Please do not deflect:
I will ask you why God put the Tree there, you'll reply: "To give Adam and Eve a choice", in which I will ask "How could there be any other choice than the one that God foreknew would happen; even before the Tree or the humans ever existed?"
I wish to address that directly.
The answer is the one that Jesus gave. It was NECESSARY. Now what you are doing is mistaking God knowing for God therefore determining. If you drop a hammer, do you know it will fall and therefore MAKE it fall? Knowing is not determining. Jesus gave us Gods motive. He was explaining the ways of God. If a person wants to understand God, this is vital.
I prefer to accept the Kingdom of Heaven as a child.
And stay in that baby Christian place your whole life? That’s it?
I prefer to accept the Kingdom of Heaven as a child. I do so by accepting Scripture, all of it.
No you don’t. I gave you a direct quote from Jesus as to why there is temptation and you saw it as deflection. You reject His answer to your question.
Does physical life have equal value to spiritual life? We're talking about salvation here.
So you think God protects a mans faith but not the body. Why did say Jesus many will fall away from the faith then?
Why didn’t he promise them God protects their faith and no one calls away?
If we want an example of falling away, look at Peter. Jesus said they would all fall away and they did. But Jesus told Peter he was specifically praying for him because Satan demanded him. There is no promise of this kind made universally though. So God does all that is within free will limits but he is not a tyrant of the soul chaining man to Himself. When the 70 left, Jesus let them go. So it is today.
That's simply awful. Why would you say that? I will never do it, sister.
If you think men always do the will of God or that God wills men to do evil, the Bible will not support that thinking. That’s all I meant.
On another post you said you prayed about this. May I ask some questions. Why does God in your theology choose some for heaven and others for hell? Make no mistake choosing some for heaven IS choosing others for hell.
Why does Jesus tell us to pray if it’s all determined anyway?
