God is All powerful and all knowing of what is required from start to finish. Some finishes take time to set, some blades need time to anneal.
If God did it all for us, there would certainly be unity...but the good that grows out of the free-will of Man is an over-unity.
He's not all powerful if there is something "required" that he didn't also set the requirement up for.
Did he make the rules, or show up one day with the rules in place? It doesn't seem sensible that it's both.
Like you get the same colors from white light in the same order each time. Inherent design.
