Hi Larnievc. I see you've asked this question a few times. May I offer my perspective to your question?I'm not asking why he has to. We know he doesn't have to do anything.
I'm asking why he hasn't. Is that a question you can answer?
Why would not needing him lead to chaos?Hi Larnievc. I see you've asked this question a few times. May I offer my perspective to your question?
The answer being: Because then we wouldn't need Him - and chaos would reign supreme.
Boy! Do I need God! Hallelujah!
I don’t get what you are trying to say. You’re meaning eludes me.Did you receive your masters degree upon entering kindergarten?
Because then it would be entirely the will of satan ruling over all earth. He does just now, but for the sake of God's children being called, and awakening by hearing His voice, He let's satan have his rule to a degree, in accordance with His Will.Why would not needing him lead to chaos?
I agree. Just like you said in one of your other posts "we are all little satans", or something like that. Unless, of course, we choose to follow the will of God.We too are just as guilty in following our own will. We just like to pass the buck and blame another.
Right! (satan means adversary and we certainly seem to fit the bill lol)I agree. Just like you said in one of your other posts "we are all little satans", or something like that. Unless, of course, we choose to follow the will of God.
Yes. Well imagine if God were gone and we never again had the chance to know, experience and join Him in a perfect new creation where there will be no more tears and no more suffering.Right! (satan means adversary and we certainly seem to fit the bill lol)
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. (Revelation 21:4)
If a robber puts a gun to your head and tells you “your money or your life” Don’t cha think it would be a bit absurd for this robber to claim upon arrest that you gave him your money via freewill? After all, you could have chosen to die!Free will means having the ability to choose. It has nothing to do with the consequences of those choices.
The Clockmaker in this scenario is neither God nor adversary; just a clock maker.Depends on whether the clockmaker is God or the Adversary
Why doesn't God get rid of Satan?Because then it would be entirely the will of satan ruling over all earth. He does just now, but for the sake of God's children being called, and awakening by hearing His voice, He let's satan have his rule to a degree, in accordance with His Will.
The robber has free will. That is, the ability to choose to rob you...or not. And yes, the victim has the free will to choose whether or not to give the robber the money. Maybe the victim chooses to try to wrestle the gun away from the robber...or, the victim refuses to give him the money, and the gun jams...If a robber puts a gun to your head and tells you “your money or your life” Don’t cha think it would be a bit absurd for this robber to claim upon arrest that you gave him your money via freewill?

I disagree. Freewill is the ability to choose from various courses of actions unimpeded.

Why doesn't God get rid of Satan?
I don't know. I don't have all the answers unfortunately. There are some things I don't feel the need to know. And that's saying something, because I used to want to know all the answers. But the rabbit hole is deep, and endless. God has shown me the futility of it.Why doesn't God get rid of Satan?
