It is our choice whether or not to follow Him. Satan simply exercised that free will and walked away, with the determination to drag others away from God as well. I'm debating whether or not I should post verses, but I'll just leave it for now. Feel free to ask if you want them.

I'll assume you're talking to me
Plus I understand what you're talking about yet free will doesn't make sense with an omniscient god. If he knows what we will do before he created us at what stage will he not know what we'll do since we have free will? If you're sure we have free will then nothing has to be of his will. Then that allows him to be surprised or angry but true omniscience (remember he's timeless) means he can't be angry or suprised at lucifer walking off. Free will is either a cop out or he's not omniscient and timeless.
Post verses if you want or anything else you can find that's not the bible lol
