Free will brought us sin and death....Every part of us suffers corruption. So my position is this: Anyone who thinks that be free will he can do anything says "no" to Christ. I have always taken this position in my writings, especially against Erasmus, one of the world's most learned scholars. I stand resolutely by my thesis because I know it is true. I will stand by it even if the world opposes it. Divine truth stands....You see then how different faith and free will really are. Free will equals nothing. Faith equals all that is good.
