God created a system which gave us freewill.
Christianity would be helpless without the idea of freewill and the idea of freewill would be helpless without incongruity.
I suppose that the great questions of "Fate, Freewill, Foreknowledge Absolute," which used to be discussed at Concord, are still unsettled.
If so be that freewill were our tutor, and we had our heaven in our own keeping, then we would lose all. But because we have Christ for our tutor, and He has our heaven in His hand, therefore the covenant it must be perpetual.
I will choose a path that's clear, I will choose freewill.
The freewill you have given, we have made a mockery of.
My conclusion on Freewill and predestination- they are identical.
. . . what is really inspiriting and ennobling in the doctrine of freewill, is the conviction that we have real power over the formation of our own character; that our will, by influencing some of our circumstances, can modify our future habits or capabilities of willing.
