“Free will” is a concept that most Christians accept as an axiom of the faith.  People assume it is an a priori truth, that is, one that requires no authentication, for it would be an obvious reality.  However, it may surprise people that the concept has absolutely no Biblical teaching to support it; the term is never mentioned in Scripture outside the references to “free will offerings” in the Old Testament which referred to sacrifices and offerings that were made beyond that which the law required.
