What about Free Will?: Reconciling Our Choices with God's Sovereignty - Paperback
by M. Scott Christensen (Author)
Christensen explains two views that acknowledge God's sovereignty and its relation to human responsibility: compatibilism and libertarianism. Providing cogent, biblical answers, Christensen argues for compatibilism and shows how it makes sense of evil, suffering, prayer, evangelism, and sanctification. You will gain a deeper understanding of both arguments, as well as a greater appreciation for the significant role that choices play in God's work.
Most say that if God were absolutely sovereign, human beings would be incapable of free and responsible choices. But is this what the Bible says? Free will is a complex topic, but the Bible is clear: God's absolute sovereignty exists alongside our free, responsible choices. Only one view, compatibilism, fully embraces this truth. Making a fresh, scriptural case for compatibilism, Scott Christensen explains the issues involved and addresses arguments on both sides. His absorbing pastoral analysis will help you to develop a new appreciation for the role your choices play in God's sovereign plans and to better understand the Bible's views on evil and suffering, prayer, evangelism, sanctification, and more.
