God promotes free will. He gave us free will. Free will isn't an illusion. He controls our path, but not our choices. Just because there's a fork in the road doesn't mean that they won't merge again. If free will was an illusion, we'd all end up in heaven.

@rithran I obviously disagree, and that would be made even more clear if you were to watch my other Video on universal salvation. God is the savior of all people, even though you dont believe it. Jesus Died not only for our sin, but for the sin of the whole world. God will judge the world and the wicked will suffer the consequences of their actions, but it is only for the purpose of making them a new creature in the end. As it is written, Christ "is making everything new".

the king of this world is Jesus. All power and athourity was given to him in heaven and earth. He kingdom was established and has no end. Paul was speaking of who the people saw as their king in the first century, it was the adversay of the christians.

The scriptures say he is the God of this age(aion).

2 Corinthians 4:4

"In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them."

My understanding is that the end of the age is when Christ returns and establishes his kingdom on the earth and subdues the nations. I agree of course Christ has already one the victory, but he has yet to overthrow Satan's kingdom in the flesh.

The word "World" in 2 Corinthians 4:4 is aion in the Greek and actually means age. I guess i should have mentioned that, or didn't I?

Oh, You're speaking of rev 21: 6, correct? This is true, however this doesn't mean that all will inherit this new life. Rev 21:7 "He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son."

@Ironmaw1776 I believe God is the savior of all. I believe he died for you, me, and Hitler. To say I believe otherwise is a rather large assumption.

If this is the case, that we have no free will, you are pretty much stating that through Chirst we sin.

God knew that Adam and Eve would sin, but he didn't force them. The choice was their own. Otherwise, who's the one sinning?

If you make a robot, and then program it to kill a bunch of innocent people, who's the sinner; the creator or the robot?

For the record, though I still consider myself to be an anarchist, I agree with everything you said in this video. Well, at least I agree with what I think you mean.
