All men that sin, sin voluntarily and freely, and thereby it becomes their own proper act. And for that very reason there can be no pretense of ascribing it to the Divine Being. This truth all Calvinists assert and avow, and consequently it is a slander that is cast upon them, that by asserting the Decrees, they maintain that men are compelled by God to sin...the Divine Predetermination is consistent with the freedom of mens actions. And it necessitates no one to the commission of sin and vice, any more than the Eternal Foreknowledge does. -- John Edwards, The Arminian Doctrines Condemned, pg. 14
