Last time Dr. Beach affirmed the Reformed teaching on free will, that Christians do indeed have free will, but a will that is only awakened and enabled by the grace of God to freely obey his will, not a will of our own volition, a will left in darkness. In our Reformed heritage, we love to reflect on the work of John Calvin, of course. So what did he think of free will? You may be surprised to learn that he affirms what Dr. Beach was talking about but that he was a little cautious in using the exact terminology of “free will.”
