I understand that God designed us to choose. I may have worded my question badly because what I really want to know is why we choose what we choose.

Good answer sonofGod.

God designed this so we could choose to love God or not.
The two trees in Eden represented this choice and the angels that fell must have been free to fall from God if they chose.
God provides the mechanism by which we can make this choice.

No choice means no ability to truly love, because love with no choice is not love, rather following the…[Read more]

Nobody argues for the Trinity here any more. Just a matter of time before someone shows up saying that God is like water, ice, liquid, and gas. When that happens, just tell them that water has a fourth state, i.e., plasma.
