Actually I don't believe in free will, in that I don't think we could have chosen to do other than what we did choose. But I figure if anyone could be said to have free will, Jesus presumably does. My question is really how does that match with him having to fulfil Scripture. Is there a possible world where Jesus said "I'm not doing this", summoned a host of angels and legged it? And if so does that make Scripture fallible? And what of Jesus' own predictions? If Peter had free will, could he have not denied Jesus 3 times, rendering Jesus' prophecy wrong? Yes I would argue that there is a world where that is possible. If (and lets assume he did, if he did not then my stance changes considerably) Jesus had free will he could have changed the path of the story (I wont say history) at any time, and I guess that old adage that in an infinite universe there is a world where Jesus just changed his mind halfway and got married, is true. Ah ok, but what then do you make of prophecy? Is it fallible? |
