An Introduction to Christian Ethics

Humans Have Freewill

Freewill is the ability to choose between good or evil. Christians believe that humans are free to choose between doing good or doing evil. As part of the perfection of the world God created, God gave humans freewill. God, Christians believe, did not make humans so that they had to worship Him - He gave them the choice as to whether they worship God or not and the choice to do good or evil. Humans have often chosen evil and evil separates humans from God.
