God is, well, God, I dont know everything but I would think he/she would. God knows how everything is going to turn out...so back to the beginning, why go through the whole choice thing when he could just fix it so that we do everything as he supposedly wanted in the Bible.

For one thing..God knows our choices but it is for us to search our own hearts, are we doing what we do because we truly love God with all our hearts souls and minds,..or do we because we are told to ..or do we because he does stuff for us,,,so on and so on...NO God want for us to know that we love him genuinely, sincerely and because we know he first loved us. Enough to come in the flesh and lay down his life for us..So you like Adam are given a choice..If you love me keep my commandments Jesus said. And even after he fell he was given opportunity in choice to tell the truth and confess,,instead he choose pride and denial...
When God offers you a choice...seek his face so that you can choose wisely...That is another reason why..Because he wants you to rely upon him...and f you love the Lord you will not rely on human thinking you will rely on him to tell you which direction to take...God bless

Can a man question God? No. God's laws were left for us to learn and follow so that we could become more Christ-like. He, as a parent does in a sense, tell us what He expects and what the consequences are, and allows us to "choose" to follow Him or not. If we love Him, then we should WANT to be compliant. Our whole purpose in life is to learn to live as He wants, not as we want. We should WANT to do His will, not our own. Go back to the beginning of the days of Adam and Eve. His expectation is that we would abide, however, it is because of our disobedience that we do suffer. We, as man, killed our Lord Jesus Christ and he died for our sins. He died so that we would not suffer God's wrath. Any other questions to "demand" an explaination, wait for the rapture, afterlife and Judgement Day. All will be revealed or just read the Book of Revelations in the King James Version of the Holy Bible to see what is said to happen.

God promised we would have Free Will and he/she kept the promise. This Free Will will
give us the right to choose what our heaven be like.. Unfortunately Lucifer.. Satan who use to be the Angel Of Beauty was demoted by God so Lucifer wants to demote us too! Lucifer probably created Psychology and Psychiatria
using humans under her/his control! God does want use to choose our path. It's Lucifer that don't want that to happen! God gives us free choices and trusts us to make the correct choices. Correct choices are those that don't hurt or harm anyone! Even I have made some wrong choices that didn't seem wrong at the time!

If God didn't mean for us to choose, he wouldn't have given us "free will" sweetie. People forget that one important thing . It's up to us to choose the path we take in life. To choose between right or wrong, good or evil. The idea was to live "free" upon the earth not as mindless autonomic slaves. What he supposedly (all religious texts have been passed down and written by men, not God) wanted was merely a guide to what we should do not what we must do.

What you are saying is that God should force himself upon us and that would go against everything that God stands for. He sent his Son for us, and Jesus gave his own life freely and he wants is to choose him out of that same freedom!

I once had it explained to me like this. Think of God as your parent and our parent is going to take us to the store to by a ball. We get to the store and our parent takes us to the aisle with the balls on it and your parent then instructs to choose a ball. God gives us the direction and makes paths available to us, we just have to choose from the ones he has provided.

He gave us all free will to make our own decisions about how we would like to live our life. He loves us so much that even though he would love for us to obey and keep his commandments, he also wants us to learn through our mistakes and hopefully if or when your mind is clear you will come back to him. Besides it would be to easy for him to pick and choose what we should do with our lives.

Because we wouldn't be human then. We'd be little robot people with no capacity to think or choose, and that is not how God made us. He desires us to love Him and obey Him by choice, not because we are "wired" to do it.

If he forced us to worship him what is the point?
We are living the enemy's way. The way he wanted the hole of Heaven to live.
Now Heaven can plainly see the consequences of disobeying God's law by looking at earth.
