tgrmst,
When I roll a die, I know that I will get one of six faces showing, but I don't know which one. Similarly, God knows all the outcomes of our choices, but He doesn't know which one we will make. That's how we have limited free will.
God didn't know what Adam and Eve would do in the Garden, and was deeply grieved by their choice. But He knew what they might do, and had a plan by which it could be redeemed. Anyone who has been a parent, with band-aids in the medicine chest knows about this.
The PEAR Laboratory at Princeton has exhaustively demonstrated the effect of free will on objects, including random radioactive decay.
You can, by making choices, definately change the future. Because many of the choices you make, and many more that you refuse to make, result in terror and horror all over the world, you deserve a lot of punishment. These evil choices are mostly made in ignorance, but "ignorance of the law is no excuse" and the choice to stay ignorant, to "ignore" the evidence available to you, is the choice that brings severe judgement down on you, or down on Yeshua or Jesus, if you accept His suffering on your behalf.
Jehovah, in the bible, has set out before men seven things to choose, or not: Life or Death, Truth or Lie, Law or Lawlessness, Service to God or Service to Some Idol, Fearing God or Not Fearing God, Favor among Men or Riches, a Good Name or Political Power. The choice is made by testimony, Saying "I choose ..." whatever you are ready to accept responsibility for.
To choose to not choose brings down the well-deserved wrath of God.
Change the future for good. Or take the blame for the evil that comes instead.
