DR. E: Praise God! You're catching on.
Part of His will is that man be free to make his decisions.
In a sense, our ignorance of the greater aspects of the universe allows for our freedom to choose ... in over-simplified form, if we knew the result of every act we may commit, it would direct our editing of what we would commit. When scriptures says that EVERY knee shall bow and EVERY tongue confess, will freedom to choose to do so or not be in effect?... And would the outcome of choosing wrongly be absolutely knowable for us to know prior to bowing and therefore we would choose not to do that which would/will cause our certain destruction/torment? Or will there be only those knees and tongues left which will choose to bow?
