How are we slave of sin, and have free will? We have agency no doubt, we're told to "choose". I in no way disagree that we have choice and that choice matters. So please don't throw me in the "we're all robots" camp yet.
But I just don't like the term free will, I think it implies something that isn't true. Until we are born again we are slaves of sin. Well at least any of us that sins. Then we are born of the Spirit and are slave of obedience leading to righteousness. I know we can debate this endlessly without ever moving an inch either way, but this is what His word says.
Once choose, God, takes over, Then, Father of the risen Son teaches his children new. Those that believe God, stand in it, no matter what troubles happen, are new, do God’s work righteousness automatically. Taking no credit to self, pride ls killed in these born new kids, born new by Father’s gift. Guilt is taken away. To grow up unto maturity as Daddy, PaPa permits, knowing what is best for each child of his
i know, as I bet you do also. When confronted with sin one can’t do some and are learning to let go of the rest, while growing up into maturity. Hebrews 1:6
Hebrews 5:12- Chapter 6:3
1 Cor 3
the new begins, at born again from Father of risen Son for us to leave guilt and pride by the way side
you, and I have made our choice. We, believe God Father through risen Son Jesus we are forgiven, reconciled at that one time willing death of Son. We can say, thank you, it is finished, I will now, daily stand in trust to you Father, to teach me new.
Father has not failed me, been always faithful, carrying on the born new work of risen Son in and through me and everyone else in belief as well, doing the same through all that will not quit belief to see and become at rest in thanksgiving and praise all sin taken away
