It was not free. My savior and lord died to pay for it. I don't need to believe. I believe because God is God. I love him because he loves me. I obey him because I love and trust him, not because I'm afraid my sin (a certainty in every human) will snatch me out of his hand. "Whom the son sets free is free indeed." There is no freedom in my success or failure determining where I spend eternity. My failure (all sin) is certain...that's why Jesus took my place.
