would never intentionally quote Scripture out of context, but as far as doing that to you to praise God, well carpe diem! I'd do it again.

You didn't misquote scripture; you misquoted me by making it look like I was suggesting God was lying. If you didn't, you would have had no opportunity to open up with "God doesn't lie."

One should never confuse faith and reason

Well, that's epiphany! Faith has a purpose to "explain" that which is a mystery, like the lightening was to a primitive man. He believed it was God's wrath.

Man is not the measure of God

No one is comparing.

To the contrary. I did not misquote you. The quote was precise, I just didn't put it in context by quoting everything you said - though the first word "Then" was a give-away that there was context to it..

I didn't force you to say "Then his freedom is faux freedom. It's a charade. He is led to believe that he has freedom but God didn't tell him the whole truth—that his choices have been "preordained." He is under the impression that he is free to choose, and yet he is not. He is deceived."

You did that on your own at post 4603.

And the statement was a perfect "fall guy" for my "sermon" at 4633 as you call it, i.e. that God does not lie, Praise God!!!

Leave a door open and chances are pretty good someone will walk through it.
