The Reformed movement has gotten younger and more outspoken since Chosen But Free was published more than ten years ago, making the topic of divine election one of utmost importance to the church today. Young Christians in particular are in constant debate over these issues, wondering what is true and how it might affect their lives.
People on both sides of the debate will want to read a "middle-ground" book. In addition, this revision deals more directly with the personal issues involved in the debate. For example, how do our beliefs about free will affect us when it comes to perceptions of love, personal responsibility, and purpose? And how does it affect our ability to worship God?
This is a good book that is well written and interesting to read. This debate concerning election and free will have raged for 500 years and will continue long after we are dead and gone.
Revised and updated edition of this Geisler favorite provides a scriptural framework for how real human freedom can exist alongside God's sovereignty.
