This weeks reading was an easy read that was well written. Some of the things it spoke about it i really disagree on. God does not create evil, he is the author of all things good. "4. But even granting that God should co-operate in actions only with a general co-operation , or even not at all, at least in this in that are bad , it sufficies , so it is said, yo to inculpate him and to render him the moral cause that nothing comes to pass without his permission." I can agree with this, because everything does by-pass God but evil does not come from him.
I agree with Chafelmer, that everything does by-pass God. Also that sin did not come from God, but God chose to save us from it. While I do not believe that sin came from God, I do believe it has given the human race what we consider free will, instead of living our lives out as a perfect fairy tale where there is no evil or sin.
ReplyDeleteLike Aly said God has given us free will, and if we sin with that free will it is our choice. If he predestided man to fall would he not predestine more to rise back up and be believer of him.
