Calvanism

Dr. Norman L. Geisler wrote the book Chosen But Free. The book Chosen But Free, by Dr. Norman L. Geisler, talks about the differences between Calvinist and Arminianism. Geisler chooses the best of Calvinist and mixes many different ideas with some of the more appealing Arminian ideas. He opens up the book with critiquing theism which he calls it neotheism. Geisler goes on to talk about how God is in charge of everything we do and knows what paths we will take, but we do have a somewhat free choice on what we do. Geisler explains that this describes how God can retain His sovereignty and we as humans can remain free to choose which path we wish to follow. He would love for everyone to follow Him and trust in Him, and let Him take care of our problems unfortunately, many do not believe, nor trust Him. The issue of Calvanism and Arminanism have become a huge debate in the church and is tearing church's arpart. This should not be happening. I somewhat agree with Geisler. I do believe that people do have some free will to make descions but I think that God will end up chosing what we do with our lives. I am glad that the author did use both views on this topic so people can be informed on both sides. I did enjoy this book overall. It can be a little dry if you are not into theology though.
