I posted this thread under same faith debates, but didn't receive much of a response, so I'm trying again here and rewording it, hopefully this will work better... everyone's free to respond... please do!
The Christian belief is that God is all powerful. If he wanted to, he could create a perfect world. Obviously, he didn't. The reason most christians offer for this is that since we are sinful creatures, it's impossible for the world to be perfect while we have free will. But isn't this limiting God's power? Couldn't this supposedly omnipotent God create a world that is perfect, in which we still have free will? Why or why not? If he could, why didn't he?
