Willing to Believe: The Controversy over Free Will

Willing to Believe: The Controversy over Free Will by Sproul, R. C.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780801064128.

What is the role of the will in believing the good news of the gospel? Why is there so much controversy over free will throughout church history? R. C. Sproul finds that Christians have often been influenced by pagan views of the human will that deny the effects of Adams fall. In Willing to Believe, Sproul traces the free-will controversy from its formal beginning in the fifth century, with the writings of Augustine and Pelagius, to the present. Readers will gain understanding into the nuances separating the views of Protestants and Catholics, Calvinists and Arminians, and Reformed and Dispensationalists. This book, like Sprouls Faith Alone, is a major work on an essential evangelical tenet.
