THank you for both of your replies.

The book I am currently reading is titled “Decisionmaking and the Will of God”, by Garry Friesen.

I don’t pretend to be a trained biblical scholar, but I find this man’s writings to appear based on a sound biblical standing. However, as I have no completed the book yet, I reserve judgement.

He focuses on what he sees as the notion of “God’s three wills”, and seeks to show that there are only two, rather than three. Those who are familiar with this probably know exactly what I’m talking about. Those who don’t, I apologize, I just finished writing 11,000 words of a novel in the past six hours, in orded to make 25,000 total words for my National Novel Writing Month submission. So I’m tired of writing. :-)

11,000 words is roughly 50 pages. Fifty pages of fiction in six hours? That's more than eight pages per hour which is a little more than one page every seven minutes. Or 30 words per minute of coherent story-telling non-stop for six hours.

I think you're predestined for a nap. 8~)

Try Luther’s “Bondage of the Will.”
