[Salvation]

Yes, God is omnipotent....no hairballs there.

However, he gives man “free will.”

Some men (and women) sin. So God waits for them to come back to the Church and ask forgiveness.

But God is a loving God — the choice is that of the man or the woman. This is not limiting God at all.

Humans are the limited ones because of original sin.

[Revelation 911]

So God waits for them to come back to the Church and ask forgiveness.

so coming back to the "church" is now a prior condition of forgiveness?

Hmm

But doesnt God already know they are going to do that?

the choice is that of the man or the woman.

Well isnt God lucky they choose Him

.....almost sound like man chooses his salvation as long as he/she recites a repentance

Rather - in your linear understanding of time, it does appear we make choice - however, none are a surprise to God and He always knows the outcome -

Lemme ask you a question.....does God change His mind?
