INTRO DUCTION
It is not, I think, common for a single book to deal with both the
theological and the philosophical questions connected with free will.
That is what this book does.
In Part I, I state what I call the free will doctrine, without proving
it and without going into any theological issues. Anyone interested
only in philosophy should read this Part and then skip to Part III, in
which I refute determinism and so prove free will.
In Part II, I discuss the theological questions connected with free
will: these are the questions of whether, as a matter of Christian faith,
human beings have free will; whether, if we do, God nevertheless
controls our actions; and whether he foreknows our actions. Anyone
interested only in theology should read Part I and then this Part.
In Part IV, I analyse the making of decisions. This is perhaps psychological
rather than philosophical, with a chapter of spirituality
thrown in.
To avoid clutter in the footnotes I have omitted facts of publication
and given only the surnames of authors and the titles of books
and articles. More information is in the bibliography at the back of
the book.
When the expression occurs only once or twice in a sentence, I use
“he or she” when referring to a person who may be either a man or
a woman, but I do not write, for instance: “When a person makes
a decision he or she may need to consult his or her spouse and take
note of what she or he wants”. In these cases I use “he” as short for
“he or she”.
Most biblical quotations are taken from the New Revised Standard
Version; if another version is used, this is noted (NJB means the New
Jerusalem Bible).
