What exactly is free will? Is it really about having choices, or is it about understanding the consequences of the paths we take?

In this episode of Spiritual Way Ministry Bitesize Teachings, Marianne explores the meaning of free will from a biblical perspective, challenging some commonly held beliefs about choice, salvation and our relationship with God.

Drawing on Deuteronomy 30:19, 1 Peter 4:17 and the teachings of Jesus, Marianne explains why understanding God's love, rather than fearing His judgement, is central to understanding our purpose.

Mike joins the conversation with spontaneous questions, including how these teachings might be understood by someone who doesn't believe in God.

Together, they also explore the gifts God has given us, why those gifts are intended to help others, and how serving others connects with fulfilling our purpose.

In this teaching, we explore:

• The difference between free will, choice and consequences.
• God's love, judgement and salvation.
• What Jesus accomplished through the cross.
• Understanding and using the gifts God has given us.
• Why our gifts become stronger when we serve others.

Join Mike and Marianne for another thought-provoking conversation designed to encourage you to look beyond traditional interpretations and explore the deeper meaning of God's Word.
