Our free will to sin is what sends us to hell.

No, God sends sinners to hell.

You seem to think that people voluntarily send themselves to hell because that is their "free will" choice.

No, it is God who sends them to hell.

Now if it is our free will that sends us to hell, then why would a loving God give men free will?

God's justice sends to hell those who freely choose to reject Him.

They DO. They do not choose to go to hell because they want to go to hell, they choose to go to hell because they want to do the things in this life that violate His commandments.

No, it is God who sends them to hell.

No contradiction. They violate His rules, His justice sends them to hell.

Now if it is our free will that sends us to hell, then why would a loving God give men free will?

Because God is just and loving. Choose Him and be with Him forever (and not if one does not).
