Is Free Will Compatible With God’s Decreed Divine Appointments?

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 10, 2019

Many times when we read the story of Jonah, our focus is on the significance of the great fish. But should that be our focus? This message looks at the message of Jonah that we often miss.
