Divine
Divine powers. What makes some powers divine and others not? Divine, described as: of, relating to, or proceeding directly from G_d or a god…
I don’t understand how you would be able to tell a Godly power apart from the power of a human power or the lore of a demi-god or goddess. To me, in order to have complete belief in G_d one must accept all things are of G_d. Even things that we don’t like, such as death and evil. Since G_ds’ power is unlimited it is wrong to try limiting it to the creation of only those things that we need or want. In His divine power He created angels, some of those angels went bad [why or how only G_d knows], now we think there is separation of power in the heavens when there is only free will.
If we begin to look at thinks threw tainted glasses we will no doubtedly begin to think that we are also endowed with some sort of power. We must understand that it is easy to be confused once the conception is made that there are different people or beings. This all stems from the initial mistake of judging books by their covers, to speak hypothetically. Because, G_d is this benevolent, merciful father of creation we have detached, by need of comprehension, all ill will from his persons. What if Eve had thought that it was G_d in the form of a snake [which she should have seeing as how they were so innocent] Would they have gotten in trouble? Would they have hid? It was the first recorded act of free will gone bad.
Once again this book has found a way to make easily understood things hard to comprehend. “What is really the definition of free will?” Noting a few concepts of free will and what the particular philosophers who came up with them think is what they digress to instead of sticking to the topic at hand. What matters is what we consider to be free will. I think free will is understanding the “I, your true Father, have set up rules to protect you. If you follow these rules your whole life there will truly be rewards for you. But you can always chose to come back to the fold. This is the gift Yesus died for. Your heavenly and earthly brother whose love, grace and mercy was the worlds reward for the covenants they chose not to brake. That is why I am not apprehensive about embracing the gospel.
The book also touches upon things like, does G_d really know the future? This question is ridiculous indeed. If any remotely intelligent human can reasonably devise the end result to his actions or of someone else with any accuracy then how can we question G_ds’ ability to see the end result of things before they occur when He is most intelligent and powerful.
