Before debating free will, you have to start with the Calvinist view of God.
In Calvinism, God doesn’t merely permit or allow events to happen—He decrees them.

From 1905 to 1908, nine fragments were found in the Temple of Apollo in Delphi, Greece.
They record a letter from the Roman emperor Claudius dated to 52 A. D.
The letter mentions L. Junius Gallio as “proconsul of Achaia.” Both Corinth and Delphi were cities in that province.
