WLC - Answer 23 (Bob) God created a system where you reap what you sow, and then he gives you what you want. Men want to be gods, so God allows them to try. Their choices reap pain, suffering and death. This is all to teach that God alone is God. It is a challenge: If you are God, try running your own world. The consequences create the schoolmaster to the flesh, which through suffering, leads one back to God.
