My Bible doesn't mention it. (NIV translation). My Bible uses terms like "God's elect". It even goes on to say, "no one can come to be unless the Father has called them". My Bible also teaches that we are born with a sinful nature (original sin) so none of us have a choice (or the free-will) to live sinless lives because our sinless natures are an inevitable consequence of one man's action (Adam).
So what verses do the concept of free-will come from?
I meant free-will in the context of salvation, not in "everyday living"
Are you kidding me? NIV (New International Version) is the most accurate! In fact, it's the main translation used in BibleGateway.com and Bible.cc
