Where
do we find God's will? Is it in one of the following theories?
1.
The Tightrope Theory
This
teaching declares God's will is like a tightrope where one wrong move will ruin
your life and require you to start all over again--or worse, be eternally out
of God's will. This view assumes God is powerless to work through the faults of
man.
The
tightrope theory has a difficult time explaining how Moses could lead the
children of Israel out of Egypt with first-degree murder on his record (Exodus
2:11-12) or how Peter could preach powerfully at Pentecost (Acts 2:14-41) when
months earlier Jesus rebuked him and called Him Satan (Matt. 16:23). It seems
God is not wringing His hands worried that imperfect men will mess up His will.
