Confused

[Craig]

If We do not have "Free Will" then why are constantly bombarded with spiritual choices.  Why did God make this whole creation into a complex and lenghty situation, when He could have started off where he wants everything to end??  Why would He create Sin and then devise a way to destroy it; He could have not created it to begin with!!! Why would he make Adam and Eve purposley to Sin and then punish them for sinning?  That's like telling a kid to smoke crack and then spanking him for it, It's your fault so why punish him?


Dear Reader:
Hundreds of thousands of volumes have been written on the questions you pose. It is not likely that I will explain it all in detail in one email. However, the thousands of pages of material on our site go into quite a lot of detail concerning all of your questions.
God be with you,
