Well, if you believe the good book, people do have free will. He didn't make us robots; we have a choice. Then again, "the Bible is our manual" which conflicts with him giving us free will. Why would we need a manual if we're not robots that need programming? Just me thinking out loud...
Ntwho....
He leaves it to us to make the right choices and to follow him without intervention until it's time for him to make his move, which is going to happen soon. It's up to us whether or not we get our **** together before he comes down, before it's too late. That's what I learned from the Witnesses anyway.
That's why I stopped studying shortly after. I believe something is out there, tho.
