wouldn't you realize the possible bad that might come of letting satan run free on earth? forget free will. that's just negligence at its worst. if i was a judge i wouldn't let a serial killer loose on the streets because i'd realize what sort of damage he or she could do.

no, if i'm all powerful and want people to not sin i remove the most obvious temptation. not egomaniacal, just practical.

If you were omniscient, you would know the consequences of creating a world of obedient sheep versus creating a world of people with free will. You'd probably conclude that the former was incredibly boring, and create the latter.

Of course, God isOmniscient, then I would suppose he knew what he was doing.....besides since HEis GOD Iam pretty sure he had his good reasons for doing what he did.....but if you and I would know everything then you and I will have no difference from GOD who should always and forever be different from us and above us .To GOD ALWAYS BE THE GLORY...if you were a judge you wouldn't let a serial killer loose..that is you...hmmm....maybe if you were god you would let a serial killer loose, for whatever reason you will have...your real follower will just trust you for that people with true FAITH

Hello and in order for Love to be Love it MUST be given freely, it can NOT be forced, and of course every scence He created the first angel God knew very well where this was going, when sin first came it DID NOT catch Him off gaurd, but the true nature of sin was not known, so in order to show sin and show what satan's plans really are He is allowing all to see the full effects of sin, God WILL one day end sin forever and there is no "if" at all involved, God bless.

God had arranged it that Satan does not have any power over you if you put the full armor of God around you.
He will deal with satan in the end. But like I said, satan does not have any power over your soul.Do not let him fool you.

Youre mistake is thinking that you know of a better plan than G-d can produce.
Pretty egomaniacal eh?
