Why Man Free Is

Once, To the wise, I turned to and timidly, I said: “The divine plans unable I am to understand Let alone them to criticize But I beseech you, wise one, to enlighten me on just this point only: Why, Free Will to men, God has forever granted at the moment, HE knew very well beforehand, Man Incapable of being his own world according to Lord’s Logos to create?” “A difficult question you have put to me, my wondering friend..,” Retorted the wise with a smile, “In reality, no one would ever be able to say with certainty, what was God's reason, but I think…” He continued to say “.. that God, having given Man all that Man needed let him free, afterward, to do as he thought right, because God, out of respect for His creation, didn’t desire any restrictions upon Man to impose For God knew from the very start that Man able would be, in time, the divine law, under God’s guidance, alone fully to apply in that way, my dear interlocutor, Man becomes a co-creator, responsible for his doing, thus no one else is left there, Man to put on the blame for Man is the only one responsible for the world, himself, has made!” © Demetrios Trifiatis 10 October 2015

Demetrios this is so thought provoking! Very clever thought you have shared. You are so right in this clever write. I am so glad you shared this one my friend. A 7 for the depth of wisdom this wonderful write gives us. God's wisdom can not be measured in his thought process in man's creation or in any other process he chooses in his thought process. Blessings my friend.

Free will is both a blessing and curse. In relinquishing our free will back into His hands the shackles fall from our own hands. I have no doubt of God's choices, even though I am incapable of fully comprehending them.

All could be a blessing or a curse, my friend, I agree! To be born could easily belong to that category. When God grants us free will we are free, period! No blame could be put on God! God is blameless.Thank you again for your contribution, dear Richard!

I do not expect many comments on this one, Richard, but I wanted to put it on paper. Thank you for your visit and honesty. If you have difficulties imagine how few would be able to follow it! Haha! Take good care my good friend! I strongly believe that our Lord has not wasted His time with Man. On the contrary He knows that eschatologically He is right!
