If you do not accept the Lord as your Savior, your eternity is of your own making. Your will be done. So, there is a raging campfire, and you are told that if you place your hand in the flames, you will get burned --- so you do it anyway. And you are severely burned. Was that an exercise of free will? You did what you wished and suffered the result. The choice was yours.Some people have the odd nothing that freedom means one can do anything one wishes without any repercussions. Maybe, it has to do with the society we presently live in. Many people feel that they deserve the prize no matter their performance. It doesn't work that way in life or in death. Yet our LORD JESUS CHRIST has made a way. And even then, there are those who simply cannot accept it: It's too easy, it's too hard, it's not for me, I'm far too involved in myself...So I was right, if I don't follow god, I burn in hell. That's called free will for some reason. Pretty crazy stuff.Not exactly... It means one has choices, and every choice comes with obligations. One either allows GOD to deal with those obligations, or one accepts to deal with them alone. Hell is the result of accepting to deal with the obligations alone. The Morning Star (Lucifer) will eventually reside in hell because he wants to be GOD. And hell will remain hell because Satan is incapable of creation and because he hates humanity.It means you have the free will to do as your told, otherwise you go to hell.So, what is the meaning of the word free in the term free will?
Free will is a term used very often in religious works, as well as in psychology and in psychiatry. Probably also in many other areas related to medicine and even in politics.
So, what is free will?
My two penny worth is, that free will is the number of combinations in which a person or anything can exist in. Everything that exists has a structure. The number of combinations that that structure can be put together in, is its free will. For people, as well ad things, alike.
But what is all the other definitions for free will?
Thanks!
