Does God have free will, should people pray for God's free will?

Question

Or is it God's 10% will.

Answer 1

This dovetails into the question: is the good good because God wills it, or does he will it because it's the good? If the former, then good is arbitrary; if the latter, good is higher than God.

Hmmmm. Quandary.

Answer 2

Of course God has free will, but He is the same, yesterday, today and tomorrow.

There are some Biblical examples of God's free will when God was induced to change his tactics in certain cases.

I am sure that statement will get quite a lot of criticism.
But you can read about it in Numbers 14:11-24.

I don't know how people can read the whole Bible and not see that women also had power.
Sarah - Genesis 21:8-14;
Deborah - Judges 4:4-10;
Esther - Esther 2:12-10:3.

Answer 3

Most men had free will, they walked the earth as gods. It was the woman that were not permitted to think for themselves, were crushed and oppressed and owned by men. No free will for women, no siree. So the womans rights movement in the past century, is a very prominent sign that the end of mans misrule on earth is at hand. Repent, repent, repent!

Answer 4

How about God - 100%, Man - 0%? Free will for man whose very nature is to sin, is nothing to be desired. Why would we want to pray for the only thing that free will does, i.e. reject God? I'd rather depend completely on him for salvation -- he knows what he's doing.

Answer 5

I don't think it is possible for God to have free will. If you know your future decisions then you can't decide not to do something you knew you were going to do becase you'd already known that you'd change your mind and accounted for it in your prediction.

I guess God is a drone.

Answer 6

I'm not sure who would limit God's "free will".

Answer 7

Palomnik has put a spanner. I'm still thinking!
