Chosen But Free
This article is a critical review of Norman Geisler’s Chosen But Free. The article argues that the book supports the Arminian view of election, although Geisler himself professes to be a Calvinist. The author suggests the book is aimed against the five points of Calvinism. Other flaws are Geisler’s attempt to argue that the will in man is not completely darkened, an that election or predetermination leave us with the problem of God and the authorship of sin. The article ends by examining biblical verses that the book uses to refute the standard teaching of limited atonement. These texts include John 6:37, John 12:39-40, Romans 8:7-8, 1 Timothy 2:3-4, and 2 Peter 3:9.
