Why would God honor Jephthah's deal?

[jcrichton]

The problem you are having is that you want God to intercede when it’s convenient for man (say provide a cure for aids, all other stds, and all ailments and deceases) while allowing man to roam free without worrying about any responsibilities or obligations.

Micromanagement cannot be with the sole purpose of man’s free will running unchecked and unbound.

Maran atha!

So why did he not take the time to seek a different way to own up to his own stupid vow?

A quick apology to those who have responded to me in these posts and I haven’t yet responded to them. I’ve been busy and I want to make sure I have a complete reply to everyone and not answer them piecemeal. Hopefully I’ll be set in the next few days. Thanks!
