[greggy]

Do you think God's arm is too short to have stopped the terrior if He chose?

If he can do as he pleases, if he can extend his mercy to us unilaterally, why then does he first seek a man to pray for the nation under judgement? Obviously, he cannot just act unilaterally, for if he could, the devil would be able to call him on it and accuse God of breaking his own laws of interfering with the plans and intentions of man on the earth. Remember, we are free will individuals.

[Right_Wing_Mole_In_Seattle]

... accuse God of breaking his own laws of interfering with the plans and intentions of man on the earth.

Does God have a "law" saying that He cannot "[interfere] with the plans and intentions of man on the earth"?

Scripture reference?
