God sees guy's background as somebody who reads a background e book from one end to the different. He is familiar with the way it starts off and ends. God isn't sure by using time as we are. Time is a build created by using God for his advent. In time is the place we are residing. Time isn't something extra suitable than how briskly the earth revolves around the solar and by using itself axis in realtion to the solar. If we lived on the moon, time could be measured in yet in any different case. a similar is going for the different plant. think of there is not any time. we are nevertheless residing and making options each and every 2d. Our options confirm the effects of OUR very own existence. God does not confirm that FOR us. We do. God is extremely like the bystander or spectator. think of a stay television broadcast like a spelling beeor something. those activities are happening AT THAT 2d. think of which you taped the show to observe lower back later. once you do watch it the 2d time, does the actuality which you understand the top from the initiating replace what could have got here to be? the respond, of direction, is not any. And neither does God's foreknowledge replace our repsonsibility as human beings.

To destroy the evil from plaguing other people. Sodom & Gomorah had only ONE man (Lot) that was saved from the destruction....everyone else was completely wicked and destroyed. Lot's wife didnt even make it out.

God told Abraham that he was going to destroy them but Abraham begged him not to because his nephew and his family lived there. Apparantly the nephew and his family would not have known to leave otherwise. But apart from Biblical stories, God never saves people when he destroys things. Look at all the deaths by natural disaster and not one was spared because of their faith. If anything, it leads me to believe that Sodom and Gomorrah is nothing but a parable.

Free will not free ride. At some point you need to stop the train and make the sickos get off. Man will either destroy himself or find himself. When he becomes so bad there is no redemption just destruction. Reprobates you know.

free will doesn't mean free of consequences.
before the flood, enough of the world got bad enough it was effectively irretreivable.
sodom & Gomorrah, that one focused area became so profoundly bad, that the only way to prevent it from corrupting everything else, was to directly give it its consequences.

THE INTERPATATION OF FREE WILL ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE IS EITHER SERVE GOD OR DONT SERVE HIM BLESSINGS OR CURSINGS DEUT 30;19 WHETHER SIN UNTO DEATH OR OBEDIENCE UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS ROM6;16
SODOM AND GOMORAH CHOSE DEATH.

he gave free will for people to choose the right path or the wrong path and he let them know before hand what the wrong path would lead to-destruction and death, and that's what they chose.

Lot, his two daughters and wife were spared, his wife looked back and turned into a pillar of salt.
God sent fire and brimestone (like a nuclear bomb) to those cities.
