This is completely off topic, and therefore your comment is spam.
We are not talking about what God or Jesus is, we are talking about whether or not The Bible is speaking for or against free-will.
By theologians who probably were afraid that they would loose their jobs if they didn't come up with something really grandiose.
According to Christian Theology, God already knows everything.
A believer would align his will with God's.
You would understand that we have free will if you believed. After reading your response to me, it is clear that you have that you have no understanding of who God is.

So he wouldn't be going around thinking about how he has "free" will.

According to Christian Theology, God already knows everything. If God knows I will do something, but I don't do it, that would mean that I proved God wrong and that he doesn't know everything, so the only thing that I can do is what God already knows I will do.

Are you trying to accuse God of a lie?
Are you trying to put God into a bad light for others?
Beware!!
I don't think that it is "silly", and it has nothing to do with being "annoyed".
You can choose to align your will with God's. It is a choice, of free will. But you already knew that and you are just saying silly things because you are annoyed.

In the New Testament it says, "it is not of your own doing, lest any man may boast".
It never puts it into terms of it being a choice.

And don't you remember Jesus saying the one who calls someone a fool will go to hell?edit on 15-2-2014 by jmdewey60 because: (no reason given)
