God also gave us the choice to choose Him. God wants us to love Him. Love is something you choose, not something that can be forced. I would rather have a choice than to be a puppet with no freedom at all.

There's no choice at all, none whatsoever, in John 8:32
Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.
However there is a notable chanGe, from "ye" to "you".
But there is a choice, and notably a grace us "let" in
If any man be ignorant, Let him(not you) be ignorant.
It won't change the end of the shew already writtten;
But it will provide more evidence of what's "evident":
that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God.
Pst: servants(slaves) are not free.
Pst: prophets = servants(slaves) = not free
Above a servant is free.
The grace(only) of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

This would have to be my favourite question and I'm stoked (really happy) that you asked.
God gave us the freedom to reject Him so that we also had the choice to love Him. It really is as simple as that.

Because if there was no freedom of choice there would be no love. One would be forced to accept Him not choose to love Him.

What do you think??? a freedom of choice make us a person, everyone you would know is different from one to another, and their lifestyle affects it in some way.
and you should just make your life worth living and that freedom should not come to person who believe in God. and just live life to the fullest...

God could had made us robots but, he didn't. God wanted his creation of humans to love him with a true love not a force love.
Which is the best? To love you for what you are or made to love you for you are.
Read> John ch. 3-16 and you see the answer there.

A relationship is not really a relationship and love isn't love if there's no choice involved. God doesn't want robots.

Because if you do believe in him you know that he loves you no matter what and that he has a plan for everyone. Even if that does not mean following him. So, now can you accept that others are perfectly able to live happy rewarding lives without him?

It's the choice between accepting the universe or choosing to live in ignorance. Believing in a "higher power" like God is ignorance

because He made us in His image. He's a being and beings have choice. so when you make a being, it has to have choice. since denying beings the right to choose is wicked, He tried to make it as easy as possible by first letting us choose whether we wished to be subject to morality.
