Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the longstanding debate on contingent self-determination versus the dominion of God in the moral choices of humanity. The author, who adheres to the views of Edwards, argues for the latter and defends the doctrine of God's sovereignty over the hearts and actions of his creation. The text begins by establishing the significance of this topic, which is central to various theological discussions. Examining the concept of contingent self-determination, the author points out its problematic implications, particularly in relation to divine control. An analysis of the influence of motives and the dependence of volitions on preceding factors follows, leading to the conclusion that human choices are not random but influenced by a chain of causes. The author then addresses objections to this view, arguing that it does not contradict consciousness, accountability, or moral agency. Instead, it highlights God's ability to guide human actions without diminishing their freedom or rendering him responsible for sin. Overall, this book provides a thorough examination of a fundamental theological question, shedding light on the complex relationship between divine providence and human responsibility.
