So, does choosing to have children or not require free will?

If not, you'll need to explain because I don't understand.
If yes, free will can exist without evil.


...evil already existed in the spiritual realm...Eve was tempted by evil , she did not create it .

Sure, but in a universe devoid of evil (let's say after the final battle between good and evil) does the choice to have a child require free will?

...there will be no marriage or childbirth after the final defeat of evil , we will not be in human bodies but glorified ones .

There will be no children in New Jerusalem? (I believe that's the term, right?)

...the Millennial Kingdom ( New Jerusalem ) will still be an earthly existence for those who survive the Tribulation and Satan will be loosed upon it after a 1000 years . These humans will reproduce and again many of them will rebel ( reject Jesus ) against God . There will also be glorified humans present and they will not reproduce .

So evil will not exist in New Jerusalem for a 1000 years?

...evil still exists , it has not been defeated yet , just restrained ...we know this because Jesus told the 12 Apostles that they will stand in judgement over the 12 tribes of Israel in the New Jerusalem .

But can evil manifest in New Jerusalem in the 1000 years Satan is kept out?

...yes . If evil was not being practiced the Apostles would have nothing to judge ; mankind is still corrupt even with Satan restrained .

But isn't Satan the source of evil?

If evil can manifest, doesn't that mean that Satan is not restrained?
