What about Free Will?: Reconciling Our Choices with God's

What about Free Will?: Reconciling Our Choices with God's Sovereignty

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: Godâ€™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 Godâ€™s sovereign plans and to better understand the Bibleâ€™s views on evil and suffering, prayer, evangelism, sanctification, and more.

â€œA clear, intelligent, immensely helpful overview of one of the most confusing conundrums in all of theology. . . . Scott Christensen doesnâ€™t sidestep the hard questions. The answers he gives are thoughtful, biblical, satisfying, and refreshingly coherent. Lay readers and seasoned theologians alike will treasure this work.â€
â€”John F. MacArthur, Grace Community Church

â€œCareful in description and argument . . . eminently readable. . . . Most important of all, this book breathes a spirit of wonder and gratitude before the face of a God who is not only all-powerful but good.â€
â€”Michael Horton, Westminster Seminary California

â€œMany think that free will is the silver-bullet answer to some of theologyâ€™s most difficult questions. But do we have a free will? Short answer: it depends on what you mean by â€˜free.â€™ Long answer: read this book.â€
â€”Andrew Naselli, Bethlehem College and Seminary
