Hosea 14:4 (NASB)
"I will heal their apostasy (backsliding). I will love them freely, For My anger has turned away from them." -- "freely" here means willingly, voluntarily, abundantly, and plentifully.

Our first parents, Adam and Eve, did not become "as God," as Satan had promised them, but instead became the slaves of the one who had lied to them and promised ultimate freedom and independence. Life now was lived on the meaningless treadmill of trying to make the lie of Satan work in life." ~ Malcolm Smith
