If God has no free will then who would he be a slave to?


You tell me, because the only logical conclusion based on what I quoted is that God has no free will.

One without a freedom need not be a slave though, could just be a robot, acting but without purpose.

You're the one who had that idea in the first place. It is you who must answer that question and not me.

If you cannot answer that question then you have taken the previous post out of context and didn't bother to properly comprehend the text.

The question is nonsensical. Not having free will doesn't mean you are a slave. Rocks have no master and do not have free will.

God does no evil.
God has free will.
Free will means one must be free to do evil.
Therefore a being with free will exists that will never choose to do evil.

Boom. It's possible to have free will and not do evil.

There you go, now you understand how God gave us free will and how it is for his purpose.

According to my Bible, page 191 is Leviticus 23. We have a long way to go before we reach 1939 pages. 30 years from now maybe?

So there can exist something that has free will but won't do evil?

The power of sin is so great that anyone who has the ability to choose evil will do evil.

With God, he is outside the realms of free will. It is called God's will. It is beyond human comprehension.

That is why we say that the LORD's will be done.

Ah. The good old 'it's beyond our comprehension' bullshit cop-out. Well if it's 'beyond our comprehension' then how can you claim to know it to be the case?
