Your question should be : why did God give man freewill if He required accountability later on .

Because God is a mysterious being and nobody knows His ways

Don't let any pastor deceive you there ..no man have seen God or knows God as they claim, they just follow scriptures still written by man

Christians in the house, your inputs are needed for clearer views.

Start by telling us exactly where in scripture God stated that He gave man this freewill you talk of so we can get on the same page as you as far as this question of yours.

You hate religion with passion

Of course I do! Jesus Christ Himself said that religion -- the doctrines and traditions of men --- were nothing but lies told using the name of God Witt the sole intention to decieve, and delude many away from knowing and following the truth of God - Matthew 15 vs 1 - 14 & Mark 7 vs 1 - 13.

Icuib4cu:
Is it that you don't believe in GOD or ...?

You have misconstrued the words of God

Icuib4cu:




In others ?

Nobody truly knows if there is judgement day

God1000:
You have misconstrued the words of God

I misconstrued it or you have no clue what Jesus Christ in fact said to you in His Gospel regarding the things you claim?

B

Icuib4cu:
■ God nor give us free will? But you fit go outside and decide to kill anybody, even end your own life. Where did scriptures say you brush your teeth.

1. So that is your interpretation of freewill as given you by God?

Kobojunkie:

Don't worry, I'm sure you read the story of one monster called Saul in the Bible who later became apostle Paul after God touched his soul on his way to Damascus.

You too will sing a new song very soon

Pay attention!

You don't know what Jesus Christ said at all, do you?,

The question of "destiny" vs "freewill" can never be answered.

Icuib4cu:
Oga na question i dey ask you not here to argue with you, if you nor believe in GOD say it, and leave me be. If you answer my question thus; there is no God. Then i rest my case.

You question is a silly one because God is not recorded to have given man what you call a "free will". From the point man was made, God made it clear that the only choice that existed for man was for man to either Obey God or die. Man chose death and here we are today with the consequence of man's choice - God's judgment against man for His sins.

If you want to believe you have freewill, at least do some work investigating the meaning behind it and understanding scripture before venturing forward. That you believe you can kill someone and go scot-free is all in your mind really. You have already been judged and condemned by God since Genesis 3 vs 19 -22, according to scripture, and are simply living life as a convict waiting for his day of execution.

Icuib4cu:
My question aint silly, i asked to know bros, this is the only reply that made sense, i'm clear now thank you end of thread. Next time simply answer question, easily no need to do like naija

1. God didn't give men free will... He instead gave man a choice between obedience and disobedience; man chose disobedience and was condemned by God to go it alone and eventually cease to exist when he dies. That you can kill the man next to you and assume you go scot-free does not change the fact that as far as God, you are simply a convict awaiting his day of execution so to speak.

Reverse your question and see if it makes any sense

Skankamola:
The question of "destiny" vs "freewill" can never be answered.

The answers are instead right there in scripture plain from Genesis 3 vs 16 - 22. The problem is most of those who come asking those questions do so out of ignorance. They come with ideas that have nothing to do with scripture yet think they can impose those ideas on the Biblical God.

Scripturally, there is no "Destiny" or "Free will".

Icuib4cu:



Typical nigeria pikin, no need to waste words on you.

Since you are shutting down,
Let me help you out:

If God made us as Robots without FREEWILL, should it be right to judge us?


Why should a baby be beaten for breathing?
Does it make sense to you?

IS THIS UNTRUE:
That
You can only punish a person legally for what he has the power to choose to act otherwise!


Your FREEWILL mean that you can CHOOSE to ACT Otherwise!

Icuib4cu:
QED Some of us are really just ignorant, so we ask to know, even though the question may look silly to you. We just need a lil guidance. So ahbeg try to dey reply msg or question, easily, sacarsm is allowed though.

Here's a question. Do you also claim to be a Christian?

.

.

Icuib4cu:
Claim? i believe in GOD that's as far as i can go.

You believe in God but you don't care to know His Truth? I mean that book is at least 1000 years old so the book isn't the problem here.
