One of my sons had a tee- shirt he wore to work it was given to us by Lawn Boy
  on the tee shirt was the words  " The power to do Right"  very impressive.

What i have to ask you is this   Does God have free Will?
I see things in dimensions.  Will we have free will we we are are His fullness?

Dear Harry:  Are we better than our own LORD?
 
Joh 14:10 "Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? THE WORDS THAT I SPEAK unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. "
 
God be with you,
Ray




Peace...Mark

Hello Peggy,

People can get very confused with this topic, because most are not aware of what "free will" actually means. It is used very loosely both by the Secular World and the Church. As long as you stick to the true definition of "free will", then the answer is simple...

The American HeritageŽ Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition:

Free Will:

1.  The ability or discretion to choose; free choice
2. The power of making free choices that are unconstrained by external circumstances or by an agency such as fate or divine will.

Does God make "free choices"? Does He make "choices that are unconstrained by external circumstances or by an agency such as fate or divine will"?  [hint: That last part should make it obvious.]

Does God ever do anything against His Own Will?

Ephesians 1:11 in Him in Whom our lot was cast also, being designated beforehand according to the purpose of the One Who is operating ALL in accord with the counsel of His will


No. The answer is "no". God does not have a "free" will.


God Be With You,

Daywalker.  8)

Dennis Vogel:
The way some people use "free will" implies God changes His mind.

God never needs to change His mind.
