• The same people that say that “free will” is merely an illusion and that God sovereignly controls everything that happens (good and bad), will also pray many-a-prayers saying “Not my will, but Thine be done”. A statement that is in direct opposition to such a belief. In fact, Jesus prayed this same prayer, so even He had the free will to choose not to do God’s will. If people (and Jesus) never had a free will to begin with, then they are essentially lying to God. “Yeah God, I know my will doesn’t count, but I want you to know that your will is more important than the will that I don’t have. See, I’m humble.” Arrogance is in not believing that we have a free will and ignoring the truth that God works within the laws that His Word ordained. Arrogance is false humility. – Bishop Joshua Maynard
