Will we have free will, as you understand it, in heaven? Does God have free will as you understand it?It's not free will if a person has no choice in doing good or evil. But as I said before, I am not in denial that the sinner wants to sin and that he has a sinful nature. I am also not in denial that the born again man of God is given a new nature, either. But that does not mean the sinner who first comes to God cannot make a choice in choosing God. To suggest otherwise is to say that God makes people to believe or not to believe (Which creates a whole bunch of problems when you read the rest of the Scriptures). For example: The Judgment. How does that make a lick of sense for God to judge man for something He had no real control over. That would be like placing a robot on trial for killing people when you offered it no alternative programing so as not to kill. Such a trial would be a joke or a farce because the robot had no other alternative in it's programming to do otherwise.
