Subject: Two aspects of the will of God |
Bible Note: Greetings John! This is the same conversation we had concerning the two wills of God in another thread! :-) If 'free will' meant only the ability to accept Christ and not to reject Him, then your point would be valid. But the whole point of a free choice is that there is a choice. Everyone can either accept or reject. Merry Christmas my friend! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
