From the Calvinist perspective: everything is predetermined. Everyone on earth is going to hell in a hand basket and only Jesus atoned for a limited group of people.
Thus, there is no free will.
So that is just something to put in this picture too, my friends.
You’re right though our focus needs to be on Yeshua who brings life to the believers, and that because of Him we are given the Holy Spirit to live by, what has been suggested through out the subject of this thread is for people to simply think and question what they have been taught.
Prayer and supplications and talking with your Father and asking Him questions will also help lead to some answers even if they may be conjectured.
God is love. He has always been loving, and even through out the Old Testament he has been loving and everything he had done was justified; due to the Nation of Israel being under the law, and the promise to Abraham to bring forth a nation.
So please my only encouragement is this “Sovereign” God people believe in that God can do anything he wants like a king on earth is a lie… a damnable heresy.
God is good, and God is love, he gave you (whoever may read this) a choice to include him your life or not, and He gave His Son on your and (the worlds) behalf so that you through faith can be made right with God, because of everything that He (Yeshua Christ) had done so that you could be set free from the bondage of sin and death. And have life (not according to the confidence of your own flesh), but because of being birthed as a new son or daughter to God by the (Spirit).
It is all in faith, if God exist He desires to help you by the spirit, no matter how tough life may get or how much you wrestle with your own flesh and Soul (mind/will/emotions) He will help you by the Holy Spirit and the Spirit of Christ.
Get into that bible read and check out everything, learn and May all of us grow in spirit just as Jesus Christ did, he grew in spirit.
Luke 2:40
And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
Thus, there is no free will.
