And once a child is eighteen if that child still rebells and effects other family members? if that child runs away and joins a cult or gets into prostitution and drugs? Free will is part of our culture and choices have consequences.
Ask any parent whether or not they would force that child to leave the cult, or prostitution, or drugs if they had the power. Any caring parent would say 'Yes, I would force them.' God surely has the power.
I don't have to rationize God, I believe His word. I never said God can be blocked, but only that He will alow us our choice and many will make the wrong one. Read Romans 1:18-32: when man rebells, at some point, God lets them go.
Oh, certainly; rebellion leads to punishment. But punishment is not the end.
