Is there free will? Do you believe in gods plan? If so, do you still believe in free will? is it possible to believe in both?

I think there is free will but we rarely exercise it. We usually take the easy way. I think God does have a plan for us but whether we choose to follow that plan or not is our choice and we are the ones who will have to face the consequences of our actions or inactions.

Maybe my punctuation is slipping or my meaning is not clear. You can choose to follow Gods plan for you OR you can choose NOT to follow Gods plan for you. You have free will and YOU can choose which way to go. God does NOT force you to do things.

i c, that makes sense i guess, god has a plan and you have freewill to choose to follow this plan.. but, i have a question for you, lets say I choose to follow this plan, it basicly means that I have lost freewill because i am following a plan god has written for me. And if i dont follow this plan, im not going to go to a higher/better place.

I am still waiting for someone to explain me how can there be free will and god omniscience at the same time. If there is a god (I don't think so) and if he is omniscient, he know ALL, all , every single thing that every single human ever did, is doing, will do in the future. There is no way to escape this. So if there is an omniscient god there is no free will. Just my opinion.

I think every human beings has a free will. God has a plan to each and every one of us. Yes I still believe that we have freewill. And I believe in both. Did I answer you questions?

Maybe the only plans are the ones we have for ourselves.
