You are free to choose how you live your life. God gives us a Bible that we can read and know that we are living righteously before Him. The only reason miracles were performed was to confirm the identity of Christ and to back up His claim to be the Son of God. There are no miracles today, because there is no need to prove Christ's identity any longer.

Basically, free will is allowing that person to do what they want. Divine intervention is something different. Miracles are performed to sway a course of events without directly tampering with the person's free will.

Every time God used miracles in the Bible, Man's Free Will was never usurped. God always allowed him the choice to choose good or evil, and in fact many of His miracles were performed only after a certain human chose to obey God.

Why would they not? God, is an extreme topic to many, and when Jesus was here, miracles were helpful in him proving he was, exactly who he said he was. This in no way, interferes with someones right, or ability to choose. It could be, miracles are just a fact of life, and that there is a plan of free will. I don't see a problem, sorry.

Its a part of his plan for that individual. When they put their faith and trust in him, through Jesus name.
Man was created with God's "Free Will" in mind. When Adam fell from God's Grace, God's Free Will was left or remained in the Garden. Whereas Satan's "Will" exited the garden with Man.
God's intervention is to "Put" down the Will of Satan.
Jesus has invaded Satan's Kingdom!

lots of how God solutions prayer, or extra frequently contains out his will whilst anybody is in touch is that he impacts and orchestrates devoid of relatively violating human beings's will. Afterall, commercial businesses attempt to control human beings's movements, yet for sure haven't any administration over their loose will. in spite of the certainty that they many times get the wished reaction. God works on a lots bigger scale, and with foreknowledge and omniscience. For myself, a working laptop or pc engineer, i believe God frequently solutions my prayers related to technical issues which arise on my pastime by potential of giving me perception into the subject concerns and suggestions. He could do in addition whilst praying for docs to treatment their affected person. there is alot extra to divine intervention. evaluate additionally whilst it comprises manipulating non-human issues the place loose will isn't an argument in any respect. The bible says, "The lot is forged into the lap, yet its each and every selection is from the LORD." Pr sixteen:33 God is on top of issues of the outcomes of all stochastic activities. In different words God is likewise the God of threat.

No such thing as divine intervention.
Lets see a cat. 5 hurricane spring into existence out of nowhere with no warning signs in the middle of winter over the Antarctic.

Leaving aside the question of whether the will is truly free or (as the reformers taught) fettered by sin, I don't see a problem here. Normally, God leaves us to our own sinful will. Every now again, when He feels the time is right, he intervenes in the world. What's the problem?

Because the miracles are wanted and asked for by the recipients. Their free will was to ask god to help them and he did. If my child asks me to help and I help him have I taken away his free will? No, I have simply given him what he asked for, which is something God will ultimately do for all of us.

Gods plan is far to complex for you and I to understand or question.
By the way when was the last time you saw a diviine intervention.
Helping someone or guiding them in the correct dirrection is not taking their free will away.
Free will is necessary in order for love to have any meaning.
