I did answer the question.

Many man don't follow God's will, ie. they don't do the work God has prepared for them.

Confusing?

Yeah it is confusing that an omniscient, omnipotent, sovereign God would prepare works beforehand for His elect that they would never do.

Yea, too bad our "free" wills are dead in sin, slaves of sin, hateful toward God, in captivity to satan, etc, etc, etc... :doh:

Too high a view of man results in many false teachings.

what , like dethroning God and placing ourselves on the throne , who could possibly inspire such self-will ?


Col 2:
[23] Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in
will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.


truly , nothing is new under the sun.
