horrific tragedy - "free-agency"

<< < (4/4)

Akira329:
Hey Claudia,
Tragedies like this tend to overshadow the abundant false doctrines that follow.
Tragedies like these also bring people together but when together, they do nothing but argue over whose at fault and what laws they can enact to prevent actions again. They're free agency at work I guess.
Those that do weep and offer solace to one another turn to false statements like this for comfort. Tragic indeed.
We know his statement is false but those who hear this same message every Sunday only affirm it. Tragic and sad.
I cannot expect those who do not know God to find comfort in knowing that he is responsible and the only one justifiable in his actions.
Only he can bring life from death.
My hope is in that day.
Thanks for paying attention Claudia!
Thanks for helping us pay attention too!

very interesting thread...loved isa 57..thanks for that....claudia, i heard emilie's father say that as well, and it jarred w/ me....that murderer had free will?  who w/ "free will" would willingly do such a thing? but that helps the father make sense out of the senseless in his time of great pain so he uses his "free will" to forgive him...sad sad

I think that father doesn't know that none of us has a free will. In fact, he can't see this truth.
