    THE ANTI FREE-WILL CROWD




    The anti free-will crowd is alive and well in the world today. Their position is the those selected for salvation have no free-will. That they are predestined to receive unconditional, irresistible grace, and that it can never be forfeited.

    The anti free-will crowd believe that those not selected for salvation do have the free-will to sin and spend eternity in hell.

    The anti free-will position is not only not a Scriptural concept; it is also illogical.

    POINT ONE: If God does not select you for salvation then you have the free-will to:
    murder
    engage in fornication
    be a drunkard
    be a homosexual
    be an adulterer
    be a thief
    be a swindler
    be an idolater
    be a covetous person
    be involved in sorcery
    be a robber
    be a prostitute
    be a Satan worshiper


    However, the anti free-will crowd says those selected for hell do not have the free-will to accept God's free gift of salvation and be saved.

    POINT TWO: The anti free-will crowd believe if God selects you for salvation, all you have do is wait for God to saved you. They believe God forces "the selected" to have faith and be saved.

    POINT THREE: They believe that no man can seek God.

    ALL men can seek God. (Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.)

    The writer of Hebrews says that all who come to God must believe that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him. If I were a anti free-will advocate I would be more than a little concerned about my belief.

    ALL MEN HAVE GOD'S GRACE AVAILABLE TO THEM.John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
