V. Additional Considerations: As Charles C. Ryrie states: “To be sure, election assures that those chosen will be saved, but it alone does not save them. People are saved through faith in the substitutionary death of Christ. And, of course, they must learn about the death of Christ somehow in order to have content to their faith. Thus, election, the death of Christ, testimony of His death, and personal faith are all necessary in the salvation of an individual. Election alone does not save.” ~ Basic Theology, 363.
VI. Conclusion: 1. The sovereignty and the free will of man co-exist by divine decree. God sovereignly chose to enable us to choose. God sovereignly created us as moral free agents in view of the image of God. 2. There is no contradiction in God knowingly pre-determining and pre-determinately knowing from all eternity precisely what we would do with our free acts. A. God determined that moral creatures would do things freely. B. God did not determine that people would be forced to perform free acts. In other words, what is forced is not free, and what is free is not forced.
