If god gave us free will, would we still have it when you go to heaven?

Question

Once you go to heaven could you go to hell?

Answer 1

The Bible describes Heaven in great detail in Revelation chapters 21-22. Nowhere in those chapters is the possibility of sin mentioned. There will be no more death, sorrow, crying, or pain (Revelation 21:4). The sinful are not in Heaven, but the lake of fire (Revelation 21:8). Nothing impure will ever enter Heaven (Revelation 21:27). Outside of Heaven are those who sin (Revelation 22:15). So, the answer is no, there will be no sin in Heaven.

What does that mean for us? If there is no possibility of sin, does that means we will no longer have a free will in Heaven? It seems that in Heaven, or ability to choose will be similar to that of the angels. The angels had a one-time choice to obey God or follow Satan. There is no possibility of further angels sinning and joining Satan in his rebellion. The holy angels are "elect angels" (1 Timothy 5:21). Similar, the elect in Heaven will be "sealed" in their decision to forsake sin and trust in Christ. We will not even have the choice to sin. At the same time, having been delivered from sin and evil, and viewing the wonderful glories of Heaven, we would not choose sin even if we had the choice.

Answer 2

Islamic point of view:

In this life you will be judged about your choice...in the Heaven or Hell there will be a choice without judgment...
Any one admitted to Heaven he/she will stay in it forever and not go out of it.
Any one admitted to Hell, may go to Heaven after he/she punished and purified for their sins in this life, with only one condition that he/she was believing there is only one God.
Allah may forgive all our sins in His will, expect Shirk will not forgiven.
Any one does not belive there is a God and this God is Only One he/she will saty in the Hellfire forever.
You have the choice today you may not have it tomowrow.

Answer 3

Yes. Yes. Satan started off in Heaven and he is going to end up in Hell. We could sin if we really wanted to. But why would you? You would be face to face with God and have everything you wanted. The desire to would virtually be gone.

Answer 4

No. We will be sealed forever unto God, with a new name in our forehead that only God and us will know.

Lucifer was a high ranking archangel that chose to rebel against God. He promoted rebellion in Heaven and was cast down, with the 'third part of the stars of Heaven thrown out with him.

During the 'Millenium satan and his minions will be confined in the bottomless pit for a thousand years (Rev. 20:1-3);

"And I saw an angel come down from Heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.

And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, who is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years.

And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should decieve the nations no more, til the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season".

Those that are born during the Millennium, will be born under the 'thousand year reign of Christ' and not subjected to Adamic tendencies until after the thousand years is complete (Rev. 20:7-10);

And when the thousand years were expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison.

And shall go out to decieve the nationswhich are in the four quarters of the earth. Gog and Magog to gather them together in battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

And they went up on the breath of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city; and fire came down from God out of Heaven and devoured them.

And the devil that decieved them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever".

God is not going to 'leave hell open' for people to look into, but in eternity the everlasting monument unto the justice of God shall be seen (Rev 14:9-11);

And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and recieve his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,

The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever recieveth the mark of his name".

Answer 5

No because on earth we decide whether we will adhere to the sinful nature or cast it away and be consumed by righteousness. Heaven is like voluntarily giving up our capability to do evil so that it cannot corrupt us any longer.

Answer 6

Our eternal fate is just as the words imply...eternal...the bible states that there is a great gulf between the two worlds and one can not pass from one to the other.

We will be different in heaven,in that there will be no temptation to do evil as we will be in the overwhelming presence of pure love in his glory and light.

Answer 7

there is much...most... about heaven that is not known... but the angels have free will... and those who make it to Heaven will as well. for love and worship to have anymeaning it must be freely given... why would God make robots?... he could, but why would He?

You know, like showing kids the Jailhouse!
