    Why free will?

    What we have is choice as children of God. We can either submit to God's will, or we can just carry on in our old way of our will, which is not free but will lead us straight back to bondage and backsliding ... is that what many Christians do? When we got saved we submitted to Christ as Lord...

    Amen, Jesus is King. But all His enemies are not yet put under His feet. He is not manifestly King. God's plan for the fulness of time [the millennium] is to unite all things whether they be in heaven or on earth in Christ Jesus.
