Archer:
The catch is that, in allowing this free agent to exist, he really does have to surrender control.
You're quite right.
And as a species, we've done well with our freedom haven't we?
As I said, you're quite right... He created the possibility of hell. But God didn't create it, a demigod did.
You and CK act as though that has any impact on God's sovereignty at all... that's not the case. It only means that God is very secure with Himself. In the end of time (when the game is actually won or lost) God will show that He is in control. He will seperate heaven from hell, and this universe will be restored.
In the mean time, he allows you to listen to whichever spirits you
want to listen to.
You're responsible for your own choices, unless you give Him back, His responsibility as God of your life.
It's the same plot as in 'Lord of the Rings'... just when the band of evildoers thinks they have won... in comes the glorious reality to crush the rebellion once and for all.
