Thank you. Then “free will” is really “limited will”, since you limit it to when grace is given.

A present, but inoperative, “free will” is not a will at all, since its very function (to make choices) is not working.

In the very beginning we defined free will as something that operates under constraints and influences. However, it is working, as we see in the scripture and elsewhere men making choices for the good. They are not illusory choices because God would not judge us for something we did not choose.
