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!”
