Why did God give us a free will?

[b][i]Genesis 2:16-17 And the Lord God commanded the man saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; “but of the tree of knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”[/b][/i]

God can do all things. His will is for all people to love Him and His Son Jesus Christ.
He could have made the world without any choice for us, and all we could do is love Him. Then everything would be perfect, except He would not have the will of all the people. Some would love Him because they had no other option. He proves this by allowing the devil to place a tree of knowledge of good and evil in the garden of eden. It was not His will for Adam and Eve to eat off of it, in fact he told them it was forbidden to eat from it. Their will was to give it a try and see what would happen. At that point satan took dominion over this world.

The Bible says that satan comes not but for to steal, kill and destroy. And that satan is the father of all lies. That satan is a tempter, a deceiver, and he comes to us like a wolf in sheep’s clothing

It would seem to anyone that the devil had won, because man had it made, and he chose to do satan’s will. But could there be a purpose behind all of this? God allowed satan to place his tree in the garden of Eden, and man chose to eat of it. But in that same garden God placed a Tree of Life. This tree was none other than Jesus Christ Himself(TheTrue Vine) He was in the beginning with God and now he was placed on this earth for us. He came to this earth and left all the glory in Heaven. To show us how to win a battle on satan’s turf. When we come to believe in Jesus Christ and gain a full knowing of the Word, we become more than conquerors in this dominion that is ruled by satan. Satan is going to use everything he has to be sure we are deceived. We need to pray without ceasing, we need to be sure to ask for everything we need and desire.

If satan can keep us quiet when it comes to speaking God’s word it is in his best interest.

If he can make us vocal when speaking on sickness, doubt and unbelief, satan is in His glory. He knows if he can tempt us into a negative confession he has us right where he wants us.

When we become more than conquerors on this earth and we will if given enough time. At that time we turn to God and say thank you for your Son Jesus Christ, thank you God that He saved us, thank you God with His stripes we were healed, thank you God He came and showed us how to live abundantly, God I would like to tell you, I love you with my heart and soul, I do not need a thing, I am just coming to you because it is my will.

At this time: God now has another perfect, free will. You came because it is your will. Trusting,and believing Jesus has met all your needs. You are not forced by anyone or anything.

Think about this, it is the perfect plan.
