Quote from : Pilgrim Theology: Core Doctrines for Christian Disciples Book

We do not have even 1 percent of that kind of power. Rather, we have 100 percent of the natural freedom that God deemed appropriate to the creatures he made in his own image. Instead of pieces rationed between God (a larger portion) and creatures (a smaller portion), God has his “pie” (sovereign, Creator-style freedom) and we have our own as well from him (dependent, creature-style freedom). Our freedom is like his, but always with greater difference. “In him we live and move and have our being” (Ac 17:28), so even our ability to think, will, and act is dependent on God’s sovereign gift.
