..if your answer is yes, then get over the fact that God cannot destroy all evil and make the world perfect without taking away our free will..without all the evil that exists in the word, we would not have free will.
Just thought I'd share..seen too many questions asking about this.

Hmm, free will and no evil? When we have the ability to CHOSE what to do, both good and evil must exist..we're only human right? And God has the definite power to destroy all evil..but he gave us the gift, otherwise we would be his "puppets"

I enjoy free will because then I am not programmed to think, feel, and behave in a certain way. I think that without free will we would all be like God's robots. God doesn't want that. God wants people to choose to love and obey Him because then the love is real. In order for love to be real free will has to exist.

Without agency life would not be worth living!!! Satin wanted to strip all of us of our free will!! Freedom is a double edged sword and some times it is a little bit frustrating!! I chose to not get over the fact that there is evil in the world so I am a mixed up human being!! So there 8-b

Wasn't that the greatest gift of all? But what is evil? Some people blow themselves up for their gods and others kill in the name of their. I would not like being a robot, or would I?
You'll get as many answers as free minded people are out there.

God has given free will.
God request obedience in us.
We hear 4 type of voices
1. Voice of flesh, world,evil and voice of God.
Use your free will to choose the voice.
God's will be perfect then our own will.

Within the bounds of the law of the land, Yes I am able to enjoy freedom to do what I choose...
Each human being must live within the laws of the society in which they live or pay the price of that society..
In my opinion most laws are in place for the common good of the society and I don't have trouble following them except speeding I have a lead foot..

Yes, and the way I experience, the evil will always balance out the good.

If God is omnipotent, why couldn't he create a universe with free will and no evil? Your "question" dodges the real question.
