Does God determine all (predeterminism)? Or does He simply know (free will)?

Whilst I believe that God nudges people in the direction that they ought to go, it is still our free will in the end that determines our fate.

The Bible teaches us that God predetermines us to Heaven and it simply is up to us if we would go to Hell.

He ordains all.

If it is up to YOUR free will, then you are destined for hell.

The Bible teaches us that God predetermines us to Heaven and it simply is up to us if we would go to Hell.

If that were true, then why would a loving God give us free will?
