God In Omnipotent Part 2 Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 10, 2021

If God has really created beings who can choose, then there is a multiplicity of power sources in the world. He can no longer then be the only cause for all that is. There are now other power sources who can cause things to be that He does not will to be.

Absolute and total control means the power is not shared with other being. All is just as you will, and there can be no freedom of choice made by ...read more
