So as you might have read in my paper, I've gone with his definitions of God and made them my starting point.
Quote:If so the scriptures are not needed to undo your argument. Just sayin'.As in my argument can be undone without scripture? That's sort of a good thing I guess because this unit isn't about theology or anything. It's just moral ethics.
Mortimer defines God's will and nature as the same thing, yet you separate them as if they are different.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
