God is offering to save the man, but he refuses the offer and goes over the edge. God, in the analogy, is not to blame for the man's fate... BUT, the analogy leaves out a few pertinent facts: 1. God made the waterfall and the river. 2. God made the boat and put the man in it. And 3. God won't allow any other means of rescue (i.e. the man is not allowed to get out of the canoe and swim to shore, nor can he call for a helicopter, etc.) The entire situation is so arranged by God so that the man has no choise but to accept God's "help" or go over the edge! If a man set fire to your home and then went into the house with a gun in his hand and said, "Either come with me, or you'll burn in this house; and if you try to leave without me, I'll shoot!", would you feel gratitude towards that man?!?!?! OF COURSE NOT! Your reply....?
