Sovereign choice (sovereignty): Man's use of God's permanent and irrevocable gift of free will to make choices, the most important of which is the decision to choose either a destiny in harmony with God's will and universal laws, or a destiny that attempts to be separate, self-determined, and even opposed to God and universe law. In practical terms, sovereign will creates the fact that you cannot FORCE anyone to change their mind -- or to love you, etc. The more you see that fact, the more you learn to respect the power of their free (or sovereign) will (even though you many not agree with the specific choices they have made).
