True, and He created people, knowing that they will sin.

He also gave man a method to be saved. Either they choose Jesus or they don't. Either a child chooses obedience or they don't.

If God cannot be wrong, how can anything happen differently? Why create someone that He knows will choose to be a homosexual?

Why do parents have children knowing the awful things that can happen?

Incapable of being wrong, if God knows mr. x will commit a homosexual act on jan 1, 2025, how would it be possible for mr.x to NOT commit that act?

Mr X chooses to sin. God didn't make the choice for him just because he sees it's going to happen.

You want to blame God for mans sinful nature but it isn't God that chose disobedience, man did. And man has been blaming everyone else for his sin since. Not taking responsibility for ones choices is also a sin. Blaming God for those same choices is stupid.

If Mom says no cookies before dinner and the kid takes one anyway is Mom responsible for it because she said "No"?

Since He knows what we will do, doesn’t God know whether or not someone will choose Jesus?

Parents are not God, they do not know specifics and they can be wrong, right?

I agree, God doesn’t make the choice, but He knows it will happen doesn’t He? God cannot be wrong, can He?

I don’t blame God for anything, I believe though, that through His knowledge of the future, and His inability to be incorrect, He is ultimately responsible for all that happens.

I just saw this post. Wonderfully articulated. Had I seen it, I might not have responded to Stuartcr, at length as I did. Thanks for fighting the good fight. :) I’m not so patient, as you seem to be, bless you for that!
