Looking back we see that our freedom to choose badly was not, after all, a very real freedom. When we chose because we "must," this was not a free choice either. But it got us started in the right direction.
When we chose because we "ought to" we were really doing better. This time we were earning some freedom, making ourselves ready for more.
holdout, or conflict, then we had our first glimpse of what perfect freedom under God's will could be like.
