The third in the ongoing "Tough Questions for Christians" series.

An ongoing series in which I challenge Christians to think beyond the "standard answers."

What is the point of free-will? Is it a useless gift?

  • i dont think u understand what free will is

  • @TheMrpoxman1 True that.

  • your giving the average chrisitan way too much credit, if they actually thought this deeply they would not be subscribing to any organised religion

  • @xPray2die2dayx "That would be pointless, a test is to determine an outcome, if he's all knowing he already knows it. And to do good? For what purpose? None. "

    That's what I said. In no way did your response address this.

  • @humanistheart well... duh.... if you think of God as your Father and yourself one of many brothers and sisters, than if your father watches you hurt your brother or sister, what will he do?

  • @xPray2die2dayx If you do you get punished.

  • I don't really see the point here. The person in the video seems to be assuming that free will is only valuable so long as you have the possibility of doing wrong. But that's just plain false. It never occurs to most of us to do serious wrongs, but we still consider our free will to be valuable, despite the fact we never have the option (because it never occurs to us) of doing serious wrong.

  • god wanted to be love but genuine love,not made to love.he gave us a choice keep in mind we were MADE by him in the first place.so he said"let me give them the reason i made them and let them choose".we know the penalty is death,back to the dust which you came from.the reward is eternal life.remember he wants true love and when you walk thru those doors your mental state is much more stronger so you still could be bad like satan.so he doesn't want a repeat.so you could choose death but WHY?

  • By free will means we have a choice to do bad or good. If we only do bad we are just wasting every one else's free will

  • Who said your not allowed to use it?
