It's interesting how you talk about free will and Martin Luther in the same breath, since Luther wrote a treatise on how the will is enslaved and all evil is caused by God.
You also mention not removing words from the Bible, yet Luther did just that by removing the deuterocanonicals (and he wanted to remove the book of James!).
He's a heretic.
I did not defend any of their actions, so do not place words in my mouth, and free will has always been in play, and like i pointed out and you missed, we make choices, and that will depend in us facing rewards or consequences. I suggest reading slower, you wont be so tired jumping to conclusions.
Where do you claim I put words in your mouth? I was just stating that it is interesting that you so frequently cite Martin Luther, and yet espouse positions radically different from his own.
I just pointed out Martin Luther noticed mistake and posted them on the door. what he chose to change or leave out, he will answer to God for. and he used free will the whole time, had you applied that logic, then this would not need to be addressed. Because what he is also held accountable. and yes, people do have different ideologies, and i noticed from a old Bible that many books from the old Bible were not in the new Bible. So who decides what is allowed and not allowed in the bible, whoever that may be will also be held accountable for their choices from free will. I was free will that had Adam and Eve kicked out of the garden of Eden. told not to eat from the tree and they disobeyed. there is the first example of free will and disobedience to God. as for frequently using martin Luther as a example, I just mentioned it here once , I fail to see frequently in that. but then once may seem frequent to you.
