Thanks for the response, KJ.
Is there a sense in which human choices overrule God's desires? In other words, does God give up a certain amount of sovereignty to human will?
I believe with that completely, you cannot have a verse in scripture that
says who so ever wills, and not have a will to make a choice. Jesus spoke
when he was going to Jerusalem about what He wanted to do but did
not simply due to human will. It is revealing too, in scripture we are
told that Jesus comes that we might have life and that more abundantly,
and that Satan comes to steal, kill, and destroy. If we look at what it is
that people want, we see the one with the greater following on the
planet right now.
