Love freely given is not love.

God gave man a free will. It was a risk He took.

Of course HE know the evil and suffering that would result from what was going to transpire, but He did it anyway. He had a reason and He provided a way out for anyone who wishes to accept it and be free. It's available to all and easy to do. No one can blame God for what happens to them because EVERYONE has the solution available to them. If they don't appropriate it, it's THEIR responsibility, not His.

Romans 8:18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.

Love freely given is not love. ??

Still rolling this one around in my head. Is it possible that you omitted a needed not that makes that sentence make sense?

Wouldn't love not freely given be something more akin to desire?
