Introduction

In the book of Genesis, in chapter 2:16-17; God gave them an instruction to follow and freedom to ate everything in the garden of Eden except the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. We can see in this passage that God gave man freewill. If man is to continue to obey or disobey the command of God not to ate the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

Now let's study what is the free will, Permissive will and God's will

Free will

Permissive will
What is permissive?
In Jean Jacques Rousseau theory of human nature, he elaborated that humans beings have to form a community or civil community to protect themselves from one another, because the nature of human beings is to wage war against one another. 

This is the reason why we have the Bill of Rights in our Philippine Constitution; to protect our freedom from being deprived or being abused. 


God's plan, or the Will of God
Salvation, the saving of a soul from sin and its consequences
Plan of salvation- a Christian concept describing God's plan to save humanity.

Eschatology- a part of theology concerned with the final events of history, or the ultimate destiny of humanity

Predestination- the doctrine that all events have been willed by God

What is the will of God? 
Romans 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

1 Timothy 2:4  Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

Conclusion:
Nalalaman natin na mayaman Ang biyaya Ng Dios ngunit Hindi natin ito dapat abusuhin...

Ang Dating Biblia (1905) Mga Hebreo 10:26-27 Sapagka't kung ating sinasadya Ang pagkakasalala pagkatapos na ating matanggap ang pagkakilala sa katotohanan, ay wala nang haing natitira pa tungkol sa mga kasalanan, Kundi isang kakilakilabot na paghihintay sa paghuhukom, at isang kabangisan ng apoy na lalamon sa mga kaaway.

Tinawag Tayo Ng Dios at pinalaya sa kasalanan at huwag na tayong magpasailalim muli sa paggawa Ng kasalanan...

 Dating Biblia (1905) Galacia 5:13 Sapagka't kayo, mga kapatid, ay tinawag sa kalayaan; huwag lamang gamitin ang inyong kalayaan, upang magbigay kadahilanan sa laman, kundi sa pamamagitan ng pagibig ay mangaglingkuran kayo.

Ang Dating Biblia (1905) 1 Pedro 2:16 Na gaya nang kayo'y mga laya, at ang inyong kalayaan ay hindi ginagamit na balabal Ng kasamaan, kundi gaya ng mga alipin ng Dios.

Sapagka't tinawag Tayo Ng Dios sa pagpapakabanal...


Ang Dating Biblia (1905) 1 Tesalonica 4:3,7 Sapagka't ito ang kalooban ng Dios, sa makatuwid baga'y ang inyong pagpapakabanal, na kayo'y magsiilag sa pakikiapid; Sapagka't tayo'y tinawag ng Dios hindi sa ikarurumi, kundi sa pagpapakabanal.


God bless Po sa ating lahat..!

TRUE CHURCH FOUNDED BY GOD OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST

The Holy Bible tells us that there is one true church founded by God, Our Lord Jesus Christ. Matthew 16:18 “And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Deuteronomy 32:3-4 “Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God.” “He is the Rock , his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.” 1 Corinthians 10:4 “And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.” Ephesians 2:20 “And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;” 1 Corinthians 3:11 “For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ."
