Article Excerpt:
Why has so much been made of the fact that we, as humans, have a “free will?” I don't think God takes any pleasure in being “chosen” by mortals, as if there were any other options. Jesus reminds His disciples, “You did not choose me, but I chose you” (see John 15:16). It is God who does the choosing, my friends, not us. First John chapter 4 tells us that we don’t love God first, He loves us first (see verse 10). Any love we “choose” to show God is merely a response to the love He has already lavished upon us. It is not the ability to choose that makes humans unique in God’s creation and it is not the ability to choose that makes mankind free.
