So that when we do come to Him, we come freely!

God wants us to make our own future, by working hard and planning well. God will guide and inspire us. Life is meant to be challenging, so as to bring out the most in human potential. Without free will, life would be boring, and purposeless. God wants us, to positively contribute to addressing, the serious problems we have on this earth, so that we all will have a better tomorrow.

Because he loves us
he did not make puppets or robots
what if we did not have a free will
that would mean we could not think for ourselves

Free will is something we are born with. Not something to be attributed to any god, Christian or otherwise.

My question on this free will issue is,Is this when you come to the crossroad of your life
and have to make the decision of whom you
will follow,Jesus or the devil?

because He don't want to create a robot...He want a living creatures, even animal have their free will, so it means they are live and so we are
He create us because He wanna distribute His love and so He give us feeling and free Will

So that everyone gets a chance at eternal damnation, apparently.

So we can respond to (love or hate) him freely.

He doesn't want "robots' to love him - he wants it to be a choice.
Pretty wise.
