(vs. 28) He also discusses THREE fences or truths that QUALIFY God’s decree, so we hold to what the Bible says and avoid faulty thinking. Fence One: God is NOT the author or direct cause of sin. Fence Two: God’s absolute decree does not violate man’s free will, as he is still responsible and acts according to his nature. Fence Three: God uses secondary causes to accomplish His decree.
