The seat of faith lies in the will of the individual and not in the inclination to one's own reasoning, because reasoning is the freedom to choose what one accepts as one's own will. Considering that the will is created and one cannot blame the potter or the clay, Milton defines this reasoning as "one's revolt", while the clay of mankind is sufficient and rightly flexible to be used as a vessel of obedience or disobedience (3.117). The difficulty of this acceptance of obedience or disobedience is inherent in the natural reluctance to recognize that we are at the disposal of another being, even of God. One of the themes of Paradise Lost is humanity's disobedience to a Creator, a Creator who claims control over his creation. When a single living being created by God escapes the control of the Creator this is essentially an uprooting of the Creator God. A Creator who would create a creature over whose creation the Creator would or could not control is not a sovereign God. Because who wouldn't hold someone responsible for producing something that can't be controlled and consider it immoral to do so? To think that God created a universe that somehow abdicated its own mechanisms is to credit immorality to the Creator. Since the core of Milton's epic poem is to “justify the ways of God” to his creation, these “arguments” are put in Miltonic theological terms in his words (1. 26). Milton's terms and words in Paradise Lost relate God's vision to man and Milton's vision to the reader. Opinions seen in theological terms that have traced many wandering paths over the centuries to knot imperfect men and explain perfect God. Justifying God's ways is a well-trodden path, but there is more to just one path. Because if...... middle of paper ......or tensions. The apostle Paul wrote in the same Spirit as Milton stated that the Potter has power over clay and out of the riches of God's mercy he will show mercy to whom he will show mercy. The historical theologians, Augustine, Wycliff, Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, and others, all held this doctrine of predestination and taught it vigorously. Predestination stands strong in Scripture and the challenge for Milton was to demonstrate that the Father is reasonable, but at the same time God is the Almighty. So where does Milton's view stand on a perfect God? Like others before "of Providence, Foreknowledge, Will and Destiny, Fixed Destiny, Free Will, Absolute Foreknowledge", in the apostle Paul's response "O man, who are you that replies to God? Will the thing formed say to him who 'has formed" , why have you made me thus?" (2,559,560- Romans 9:20 KJV.)?
