Rhodes\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is a Bible study on biblical election (God's choosing of His believers). It is a study dealing with people's choices in light of God's choices and sovereignty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMany questions arise from this subject: Do I exercise my will, or is everything predetermined? Do I have a \"free\" will? How does God's sovereignty really work? Am I just a puppet with God pulling the strings? Can I truly love God if my will isn't really \"free\"? How does God's \"foreknowledge\" apply to my salvation? How much involvement do I really have in my own salvation? These are difficult questions to be sure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe can observe the Bible dealing with this subject from two very different perspectives: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe horizontal perspective: Mankind's perspectives and actions. The exercising of people's will and choices as they participate in life and relationships around them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vertical perspective: God's perspective and actions, outside of people's perceptions. It requires God revealing these things in His Word for us to know about them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book deals with the obvious occurrence of people exercising their wills (which is observable - the horizontal perspective). It also looks at what the Bible reveals to us about what God may be doing behind the scenes (which cannot be observed - the vertical perspective).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEven though a few illustrations and analogies are included, this book relies heavily on the topic as dealt with from the pages of the Word of God.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.19 x 7 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 20, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51749184307488,"sku":"9781958892121","price":20.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/2017682f7b0239944d81fbc1da0f63d9.webp?v=1779925777","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/did-god-choose-me-a-study-on-biblical-election-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
