Free Will


Free Will - For as much as many may believe we are pre-destined to hell or heaven. It would be contradictory to the gift of salvation through grace to believe that there is no hope. I strongly believe in Love , Hope and Forgiveness- if we reject God's grace then we make a clear decision based upon free will. God even forgives the undeserving as stated in the old and new testaments. Salvation is a gift , not something offered to some and not others it is for all man kind any other teaching is contradictory to God's word. Jesus himself was tempted by Satan and felt in human form what free will was. Not my will but thine will be done. He chose to follow his Fathers will knowing the suffering he would endure. Those who are the elect of God , have a calling but a case can be made in the teaching of Christ about the wedding feast where many received invitations but not all came, then the invitation was sent out to all the people in the highways and byways many did come, of those that did- those that did not prepare their garments were cast down into the pit. What does all this mean - Salvation is offered to all , we must accept the invitation and show up with the proper dress which is repentance and faith in Christ, we must become new creatures a transformation must take place with the help of the Holy Spirit, even Christ received the Holy Spirit  as an example for us to follow. For as the Father and Son are one, they are also one with the Holy Spirit. Jesus was both man and God, he could not have freed us from sin without being a man of free will, accepting not to follow the temptations of the flesh but to follow his Fathers will. We all fall short of Gods perfection therefore all are in need of salvation.
