Q
Why did God allow Satan to temp man?
A
- God allowed man to be given a choice in Eden because of his sovereign decree that both angels and men should possess Free Will.
- God granted this because of His own holy Nature
- God granted this because of His loving desire to have voluntary love and fellowship from man.
- God allowed man to be given a choice in Eden because of His Sovereign wisdom in that He is able to bring greater good out of the events that have followed the fall.
Note- one example of this is the teaching of Paul in Romans 5 that believers have gained far more in their salvation through Christ than they lost in their fall with Adam.
