DEDICATION
This book is dedicated to my wonderful partner in life, my wife Rosette of forty-three-years. She has been unwavering in her faith and dedication to me and our son Mark. What a precious and beautiful person to have you as my wife Rosette. You have been an endless source of encouragement and a true example of a Christian wife.
FOREWORD
Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power
Psa 110:3
Walk the aisle of most Christian
book stores and you will find row after row of books on self-help. Whether it be How to be Born Again,
10 Steps to Christian Maturity,
or Your Best Life Now,
one thing is sure, at the heart of all those books, are an unbiblical doctrine that has taken a stranglehold on modern Christianity
and the churches
it flows from. If there be one subject that seems to cause the most contention between the professing believers of God, it is the subject of human freewill. This unbiblical doctrine is not new, however. It has spanned the course of time and reaches back before Adam and into heaven itself. The false doctrine of self determination or freewill has been held as a foundational right that all cognitive creation, men and angels, have and the very thing that makes us culpable creatures. Many verses of scripture are called upon to support this false idea. Immediate context and overall teaching of the Bible are not considered, but only a line or two, ripped of its meaning and carefully dissected and used to comfort and support the prideful heart in its yearning to be as God!
In the text above we find the foundation of what scripture really teaches. Only a short phrase, but a nicely condensed teaching of what all of scripture upholds, "It is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth but of God that sheweth
