1. God created Heaven and Earth. Nothing preceded God’s creation, hence God has free will and is not bound to any limitations. God breathed from His spirit into Man, hence Man has free will.
(If it were not so, God would not be master over the material that preceded Him. Man could be no better. There would be no free will.)
2. Being a creation of God, created of God’s spirit, Man must understand his greatness and strive for greatness.
