Further proof that such a creature exists if you needed it could be found in the talk I listened to this morning by Terry Virgo<\/a> given at the recent Leaders conference in Brighton. Sadly I missed the conference as I was looking after the children so my wife could go.<\/p>\n

Anyway, his comments included the following which stood out to me\u2026.<\/p>\n

When speaking of Gods choice of specific people to be saved and have specific roles he made the point that whilst Golliath had said \u2018Choose a man for yourselves\u2019 God had said a few chapters before \u2018I have chosen a man for myself (David)\u2019<\/p>\n

People might say thats not fair, dont I have a free will. Terry said \u2018Yes but God\u2019s is freer!\u2019<\/em> The concept of limits to the so-called free will of man is crucial for our sanity. Believing in a sovereign God who can prevent certain things from happening and who \u2018Does whatever he chooses\u2019 is vital to preserve our sanity.<\/p>\n

So yes, I am a reformed charismatic<\/a> and there are many more out there\u2026..<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
