Monergism vs Synergism

Free will is free choice. Same thing.

No, they are not. Free will is complete and utter freedom, being completely and totally unrestrained, by anything at all. With free will you have a vast, perhaps innumerable amount of options available to you. With free choice, however, you have a limited number of options - you are only able to select from that which is presented to you.

Do a Google search on 'Free will vs Free choice' and you will find out that they are two different things.

And if they weren't, why is it that you can contrast the two with each other (i.e. free will vs free choice) ?

Monergism 'is the position in Christian theology that God, through the Holy Spirit, works to bring about the salvation of an individual through spiritual regeneration, irrespective of the individual's cooperation.'(Source: Wikipedia)

Synergism 'The doctrine that individual salvation is achieved through a combination of human will and divine grace.' (Source: The Free Dictionary)


Are you a Mongergist or a Synergist? Which view is correct?

Neither according to those definitions.
