Only, you don't have it. God does. Here's the thing:
You say: "I have free will. Just because God knows the choices I will make, does not mean I still do not have the choice. Choice = free will."
I say: "You don't have free will. Because god knows the choices you will make, they aren't really choices at all ... you just think they are."
And I'm afraid we may have to leave it at that.
