The book is a different approach to the Calvinist-Arminian debate. While Calvinism sees that who will and will not be saved is a choice that rests ultimately with God, and while Arminianism sees that responsibility lying in the lap of each and every lost person for him or her self, "God's Will and God's Desire" presents the position that it is ultimately the Church who, with God, will, in the end, determine who will and who will not be saved.
