God created us with free will .... in spite of the fact that He knew we would mis-use or abuse it.
Even still, He will not interfere.
OUR responsiblity is to learn of Him, His ways, and use the gifts He gave us for His glory which WILL BE to our benefit.
The lost, the un-learned have no clue what that means (which includes too many rabbi's), and we are now faced with the challenge to pray for Holy Spirit revival in Amerrica.
I think we are on the same page. I like what you wrote.
