I Object to Freewill!!!
The subject of Freewill and Predetermination is one of the highly controversial issues in contention.
Interestingly, there are those who acknowledge they have freewill even though they wished they were just like 'puppets' or 'robots'.
Objection: An unlimited God should have many options apart from making humans have "free will" or "robots". But I am not even saying that God should not have given us free will.
My point is that *whatever* makes one do wrong could be taken away.
Response: God is not only unlimited, He's also Love. And the supreme ethic of love is choice/freewill.
The fact that God is sovereign doesn't mean He should get up and do whatever He feels like doing. He's also Just and Righteous. This implies that His actions are guided by who He is.
So if God takes away your ability to do wrong, then He has compromised His essence by violating the supreme ethic of love. One main thing that makes Him God is that He's perfect in all His ways.
It would also be impossible for anyone to freely love if there was no freewill. We must be free to choose what we want to do, even though God wants us to choose Him.
Above all, God only says, "I've provided my Son as a surety and a savior for you. Believe in your heart that He died and was raised from the dead on the third day, and confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord. Then you're saved". That's a choice to make.
That's all that the gospel that brings salvation is about. Christ died and resurrected for you and I so that by faith in Him we would receive eternal life.
Jesus is Lord.
