Will to Belief and Faith

Adam, the first man was created in truth destine for paradise
But by an act of the will chose a lie and hell for all humanity

Now we are all born in a lie destine to eternity in hell
We must determine then choose truth

By an act of the will I change my eternal destiny
Like ice cream flavors I am free to choose

So, does Free Will presume Will Power?
Am I depending on the same will for my eternal fate
As I am to maintain a healthy body weight?

Hum, must I act on truth which is faith or
Simply choose to believe truth and deny doubt?
Belief is on a continuum fluctuating from weak to strong

What about the person who does not yet believe but
Chooses anyway to act in faith on God breathed truth
Though maintaining intellectual dissonance?

Unless I act on truth of diet and exercise I remain fat
Likewise, my eternal destiny is changed only if I act on
God breathed truth - Faith
