Question: Why is being able to change sides not free will?
God’s answer:
This (changing sides) is self choice. You choose to be your
self. Then you have free will, which is to make your
own choices.
You must first have a self before you can have the
power to choose for your self.
Free will is not My gift. It is your gift to your self.
Question: Let me get this right. When the angels and Adam and Eve began doubting their selves (which is you), they made a choice to go against your better judgement, and thus developed a self. So, until they made that choice, they did not sin yet... so to doubt you is not a sin?
God’s answer:
They listened to their own voice of reason.
Question: So, even when they just doubted you. They already made a choice to have a self?
God’s answer:
They made up their own mind.
Meaning: Even if they chose to agree with the righteousness of God, within them, they still went through the mental process of making their own decision. At which point, they already made a choice. God explains this more.
