    Hi Danny. It is not a sin to lack scientific understanding.

    I leave you with this to ponder if you can.

    The globe model has the sun setting below the horizon just as the bible states.

    Why don’t you bring back the sun taking a video of the sun when it supposedly is too far away to see.

    EDJ……Good to here from you brother,  we have been down this road before,  it is unfortuniate they  who translated that scripture used that word “freewill” , but the actual word inplies whoever wants to do it, it has nothing  to do with the subject matter  of a “Will” being free, or not.  Yes we do have “freedom” to excerise our <…[Read more]

    Proclaimer…….Love does not require a, ” FREE WILL,”,

    If uou cannot choose freely to love or reject God, then there is no such thing as love. Instead there is only God directing everything and just misfortune if God decides that you cannot love him.

    If Adam and Eve had been created as robots that we control, they would not have disobeyed God. But they were created IN THE IMAGE OF GOD, which suggests that God has free will and therefore CONSTANTLY MAKES CHOICES.

    This is how some early apostles / teachers put it. See if you can see the common theme they teach regarding the differences between God and the Son of God.

    There is God and there is creation. The beginning is creation. Before the cosmos, there was God and the Word that was with him. But God is supreme. Someone had to be first. And the first would rightly be called the Son of God.
