Did God give humans free will, or are we just puppets on a string?
God turned man loose with a free will, so humans are not puppets on a string. Even with that free will, nearly six thousand years after it all began, humanity remains right on God's timetable, not off a month, which is a miracle of Biblical history.
Les teaches that it is hard to comprehend that God turned man loose with a free will, and that man is not just a puppet on a string. Yet in spite of that free will, nearly six thousand years after it all began, we are right on God's timetable, not off a month, which he calls one of the miracles of Biblical history. He then goes to the board to bring the timeline: about 4004 B.C. Adam was created, and because of King Herod's rule and death, Christ had to have been born 4 B.C., which puts the crucifixion at 29 B.C. So the timeline underscores that human free will operates alongside God's timetable.
