If God ordains the future, can humans have free will? Are people predestined for salvation? And what does the Bible say on the matter?
William Lane Craig is a Christian philosopher and leading proponent of Molinism, a view of divine sovereignty that seeks to reconcile God's fore-ordination with human free will.
Paul Helm is a leading Calvin Scholar. He defends the view that God predestines the future, limiting human freedom.
