Perhaps. Isn't that kinda childish, though? Is like when I make my dog sit while I'm dangling the treat in front of her...
And if god knows everything, then he already knew that I wasn't going to ask for it before I didn't
Sorry for not responding sooner, but I don't think it is childish. If God makes certain laws, and we accept the premise that God is perfect, then he would not hypocritically disobey the laws he designed. If free will is one of his laws/principles, then he would not intervene in an individual's life unless a request for divine intervention was made.
That's a decent explanation, thanks. There's a bit of an issue with God's perfection, and complete knowledge, and us having Free Will. Too, like I said, if he already knows that you want him to intervene, then its kinda silly to make you do the dance first. Ya know?
