In this presentation we consider the human dilemma of being in a depraved state, as far as our affections toward God is concerned. The fact that all the children of Adam are born in a state of enmity toward God, disqualifies us from entry into the kingdom of God, unless and until we are born again.
The condition of the human will is not the same for both states of being. Freedom of the will only exists in the kingdom of God, therefore the natural man has his will in bondage to the desires of his master Satan.
In this video, we explore the concept of the faculty of the will in a person found in a fallen state . We discuss how the doctrine of total depravity teaches that every person born into the world is enslaved to the service of sin as a result of their fallen nature and, apart from the efficacious (irresistible) or prevenient (enabling) grace of God, is completely unable to choose by themselves to follow God, refrain from evil, or accept the gift of salvation as it is offered.
This presentation also shows the wise and gracious work of God to free souls from the bondage of Satan and usher them into his kingdom were freedom of the will is restored to man.
