Understanding Free Will in the Light of God's Sovereignty and Purpose

This exploration delves into the theological concept of free will, juxtaposed with the biblical truths of predestination and divine sovereignty as outlined in Romans 8:29 and other Scriptures. It highlights how God directs the hearts of rulers (Proverbs 21:1) and the plans of men (Proverbs 16:9), emphasizing humanity's struggle with sin and the need for divine drawing to come to Christ. Ultimately, it encourages a commitment to serve the Lord amidst the choices we face, reflecting Joshua's declaration in Joshua 24:15 about serving God.
