sin is anything that hurts us that's why God hates sin because he loves us. Our free will is because we are not robots we can choose to fellow him or not..Fellowing him is much better. if we did not use our free will we wil not learn. we do not go to hell because we use our free will we go there because we choose not to be apart of Gods plan..his plan is best for us. Once we except Christ we can never be damned for what we do..we learn from our mistakes and soldier on.
@MidnightHustler75 I didn't know Christians condoned insulting people of other backgrounds. Whatever happened to that "Judge not" verse? Or does that not apply to you?
@MidnightHustler75 Archaeology also keeps proving other, older stories have truth to them as well. The earth isn't a mere six thousand years old, you know.
You're certainly a patient one. Did you ever stop to consider that the reason he gave us freewill was because there is a maximum capacity in heaven as ordained by the fire dept.? (Interesting analogy) FIRE dept. haha. Here is my question for you...How is your child going to be brought up? Free to choose? Exposed to both sides without favoring one or the other?
Gen.3:2,3 " And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, Elohim hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die."
Well here it doesn't say how she KNEW not to eat from the tree, whether God personally told her as he did Adam or if Adam informed her of the COMMAND not to eat the fruit of that tree, BUT she defintely KNEW that was God's COMMAND.
az- Man didn't know God's will while in the garden? God didn't tell them?
Gen.2:16,17 "And Elohim COMMANDED the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: BUT of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely DIE."
Well we can see that aleast Adam KNEW the will of God. I wonder if Eve was informed not to eat of that same tree after she was created? cont.
God made a New Covenant with Christian believers through the blood of Christ (Luke 22:20).
Those who choose to love and obey God and His Son have their sins forgiven and will not only be blessed in this life, but also receive eternal life (Luke 18:28-30).
They will become the children of God (John 1:12-13).
Those who refuse to accept and believe in Jesus will be condemned (John 3:18).

James 2:19 You believe that there is one God. That's fine! Even the demons believe that and tremble with fear.
You don't have to be a Christian to know God exists and the Bible is His inspired word.

People still have their free will to choose.

"God gave us a choice to either love him or not, and he did that by giving us free will"
And God hasn't change.
He made a Covenant with ancient Israel promising national blessings IF they loved and obeyed God (Deut 30:5-16).
He warned Israel of the consequences that would result if they turned away from God (Deut 30:17-18).
He told the Israelites to CHOOSE between life and death, blessings or curses (Deut 30:19-20). ...
