Question of the Week #343

Do you think that living as if you control your own destiny is a good idea? Do you live that way?

It’s called free will, y’all. I absolutely live this way.

*The Question of the Week can be found in The Book of Questions by Gregory Stock, Ph.D.

    • I’d like to disagree a bit on that one. Every Christian *has* free will. Its why salvation and God’s grace are so important. Life’s choices are not predestined.

      • This was always a fun theological debate in my Christian studies classes during college… Free will vs. predestination… Is the Christian saved because they chose to believe or are they saved because it was preordained by God from the start?

        • That’s the main divide between Calvinists and Arminean theology haha respectively: God has prechosen and those he has chosen will be saved vs you have control over your acceptance/openness of salvation

          I’ve been raised in the later haha
