Major Ian Thomas emphasizes the concept of freedom of choice in relation to God's grace and the efficacy of Christ's sacrifice. He argues against the notion that God arbitrarily limits redemption, asserting that the reluctance to repent lies with humanity, not God. Thomas highlights that without the freedom to choose, accountability for obedience or disobedience becomes meaningless. He reinforces that Christ's atonement is available to all, and it is our inherent right to choose, which is central to understanding both godliness and iniquity.

A.W. Tozer emphasizes that choosing God's will is not a denial of our freedom but an exercise of it, recognizing our limitations in making the best choices. He highlights that true saintliness comes from submitting our will to God's, acknowledging that while we have the freedom to choose, we should seek the wisdom and goodness of God in our decisions. Tozer quotes Tennyson, illustrating that our wills can be aligned with God's will, leading to a life of obedience that is freely chosen rather than coerced. The essence of this choice is the acknowledgment of our need for divine guidance in our lives.
