If you cannot choose to sin, doesn't that mean that you are no longer free to sin?

makes sense.
I've also been told that god will give people in heaven a kind of "holy amnesia" so that they won't remember their loved ones in hell.

Good question.

Free will exists everywhere. However, most people who go to heaven do so because they want to be there. Since they want to be there, they want to follow the rules. Those who don't want to follow heaven's rules end up elsewhere, because they find a place whose rules they wish to follow.

In other words, people/entities who want to kill other entities go where that activity is encouraged. The people who go to heaven don't want to 'sin', so they give up nothing to enter.

It would be different if someone 'forced' another person to go to heaven, but technically, you can't 'force' someone into heaven. Heaven, by its very nature, is a place where entities want to be, so if you don't want to be there, it isn't heaven (No one is going around saying "You WILL sit here in this beautiful glade on this perfect day and you WILL be happy").

Of course, there are other 'places' besides heaven, so 'people' are free to travel and visit them, and gain knowledge about them, but that as well is an expression of a person's will. That is because once the promise of heaven is 'realized' within the person, then the thought of leaving is not one that causes pain or suffering at the moment the thought is raised (when you leave Disneyland on a certain day, you don't feel anxious if you have to wait until next year since the memories are still fresh in your mind. The anxiety comes later, when the memories are not so fresh or clear.)

There are 2 issues which could ensue which will fee someone their eternity in Heaven. a million. The Sin unto death 2. Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. this kind of is dedicated by technique of someone who's in no way kept, and the different by technique of someone who became kept that has replaced their ideas and entirely rejected the salvation message. there is no longer a 2d threat once you've breached those. yet, the problem is that you does no longer desire one. So, once you've doubts about your salvation, and also you nonetheless favor to repent, you are able to income this. yet lets say Billy Graham were to awaken day after today and proclaim that it were all a lie. If he receives to the point of believing it in his heart to the point of bitterness, then he could dedicate between the above and lose his salvation. Judas did this. He became as on the fringe of Jesus as someone could get and then rejected him. Peter, besides the undeniable fact that, repented and became kept.

When you enter the Kingdom of Heaven you will no longer CHOOSE to sin- the Bible doesn't say that you are INCAPABLE of sinning...

***** choice implies free will ****

Evil does not get into Heaven.
Why would Good sin in Heaven.
It is already the free will of Good,
so why would they lose it.

No. It means their will is completely freed. You lost your free will long ago, my friend, when you gave it up.
