God Himself has authority to choose whether He will do something or not. Thus, God created man with the right and responsibility to make important choices for himself. However, God gave to man a free will and the responsibility to choose for himself whether to obey God. God did not create man in the image of the sun that rises every day, but has no choice in the matter. That is not how it is with man.
Man is a special creation.
God created us for Himself. God wants us to choose to love Him and worship Him. Man must choose for himself whether to follow God or Satan, whether he will cherish the Word of God or despise it. God will not force anyone to believe His Word. He will never force us to love Him and obey Him.
