Two Wills

JohnPiperDesiringGodHave you ever wondered how God can be sovereign and ordain all things that come to pass and yet man can still have a free will? How can God ordain all things – even sin – and not be the author of it? What’s the difference between God’s decretive (or secret) will and His revealed will?

Though we might turn to a number of sources to begin to address that question, I have found this article by John Piper  Two Wills  particularly helpful. I hope you do as well!
