Let’s see if I can get this straight.

Before the frogmarching Reformed Holy Spirit leaps upon you, you have no free will so you can do anything you want.

After the frogmarching Reformed Holy Spirit hijacks your soul, you have the free will to only do the things that God wants you to do.

Is that the way you read it?

Reading all of this, I can’t figure out how things go sequentially. Maybe you can enlighten me.

God won’t let me go, but if I will to leave Him, He still won’t let me go? Or leaving Him, I am let go? But He doesn’t let me go? So if He doesn’t let me go, but I will to go, my will is not His will-—but still, He doesn’t let me go?

I’m not quite grasping the essential elements her.
