God is free. God is not conditioned by anything other than himself. He permits good things to happen with divine pleasure and enduement, as well as evil things. But God is self-determined either way. Does this mean that God is free to approve sin? By no means! God is not free to be unloving, unwise, to ignore hard facts of reality, to be unfaithful to what is or ought to be, to be uncompassionate or unmerciful. God cannot deny Himself and His own character. He is free to be Himself--His personal, eternal, living, intellectual, ethical, emotional, volitional self.
