I'm with you brother. I've asked this before and gotten nowhere fast.
Let's see. You have free will to choose, but if you don't choose what I want you to choose, you will burn forever in HELL. And that's a true choice?
The only theory that I've heard that kind of made sense is this. God created us knowing EVERY CONCEIVABLE choice we could make. and every conceivable outcome of that. So we are free to choose, but he allready knows the outcome of those choices....
But I've only heard this from one person and he's an Atheist. Everyone else gives me some redundant circular logic that involves faith and other tenants of insanity.

There is no "PRE-DESTINY" you have the choice ( free will ) of heaven or hell..Soon the world is going to change dramaticly, All reality will be fliped upside down..remember these words..they came from a christian who probly will have vanished with about amillion others..repent when this happens at least.

If you believe that once your physical body has died and that your spiritual body or soul or spirit has passed to another place, wherever that place may be, then it is not a big step to believe that you as a spirit existed prior to your birth in the physical body. That being the case, it is not too difficult to accept that you chose what you wanted to experience in your coming physical life. If you chose your own destiny, then what happens in your physical life has to be free will because you chose it.

Of course, you are assuming pre-destiny and free will can exist in the same theory. They counter each other. You can't possibly have both

Free will is your choice on how you get there, predestination is the intended goal. Say your going to New York that's your destination, your free will how you get there. So its not a total free will , its a parent looking over his child giving as much free will as can be safe for the loved one!

NOSY...The Bible does not support the concept of a separate 'soul' that departs the body at death. Genesius 2;7..man came to be a 'living' soul. Revelation 16;3...every living soul died, yes. Ezekiel 18;4...the soul that is sinning...it itself will die...and the word 'soul' is translated from the Hebrew word NEPHESH which means ' that which breathes'. Our 'soul' is us, breathing and living.

Totally.
Maybe it's more like a 50/50 choice plan. We keep picking A or B until we end up dead.
IT ALL ENDS IN DEATH PEOPLE.
take it easy.

Depends what you mean by those two terms. First step, definition. Second step, apply symbolic logic. Third step, go out for lunch.

no you can at any time tell God to piss off. You can even kill yourself, that like telling God "You can't fire me i quit" LOL i ahve to throw that in there.
Ending your own life is bad, and very selfish, so do not do it.
