Predestination Is Compatible With The Free Will Of Man

If God knows what I will choose in the future and allows me to make that choice, then my choice is free and it is predestined by God (because he does not intervene to change the outcome of that choice). This is true in regards to salvation. God at any point can intervene and cause his will to be done in regards to salvation over riding the free will of man. For example, Paul had revelation from God that was over powering, indisputable and salvation producing. This is not the norm but the exception. God's will is always done. God therefore can accomplish his purposes completely and sovereignly, controlling all things, without man doing anything accept believing based on his calling and revelation. As faith is not a work, salvation is completely accomplished by God by the work of Jesus Christ and the drawing of God the Father. In this way, God is sovereign and all powerful, controlling all things, and man is free to believe or refuse to believe (in most cases eg Paul's example above).
