Come now, God can do ANYTHING. He could give us all upgrades.
No doubt. But it's like the supercomputer telling the Atari 800, "Trust me. I know what I'm doing. Until you get that upgrade, you'll have to just believe it."
Quote:God is, indeed, teasing Satan. It's all been decided beforehand. Like the old saying goes among us wacky Christians, "I've read the back of the book. We win."
In fact, God KNOWS everything, so the game of who gets the most souls with Satan must be spoiled.

So, free will ain't so free, and the outcome of whatever God chooses to do is known to him.
Sorry Rip, honestly, Scientology even makes more sense than this business IMO.

Just because He knows and we don't doesn't make free will a moot issue. He gave you the ability to choose as you wish, but he already knows what that decision will be. Afterall . . . He knows everything, right?
Like I said, though. It ain't easy to explain and I ain't no expert. And yet . . . it's so very simple. Maybe that's what makes it so difficult to understand? I dunno.

Tell him I will when he does...
Now let's see how HE treats the messenger, eh?

Now, see? *I* would NEVER turn you into a pillar of salt. Pillars of salt are just so jejune and unamusing.
