People don't do evil in a vacuum. If someone does evil, then someone else is suffering as a result of it. So while God is standing by letting a murderer or rapist exercise their "free will", some poor innocent individual - a child perhaps - has no choice whatsoever. How is the victim determining their fate exactly?
God is willing and able.
Is he able, but not willing?
Yes, no.
Is he both able and willing?
Yes.
Then whence cometh evil?
Free will
Is he neither able nor willing?
No.
Then why call him God?”
Redundant question.
Opinions on this riddle?
God enables us to have free will, meaning that some will do evil and some won't. It's our choice, God is allowing us to determine our fate and he is very patient. Evil will be dealt with in his time.
