The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven. And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven? Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, MURMUR NOT AMONG YOURSELVES. NO MAN CAN COME TO ME, EXCEPT THE FATHER WHICH HATH SENT ME DRAW HIM: AND I WILL RAISE HIM UP AT THE LAST DAY. It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me. Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. I am that bread of life. Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world (John 6:41-51).

“ God is love, just and righteous ” Without free will there is no love.
God loved the world so much, He sent His own Son.
Jesus, came out of free will, submitted to His Father.
This is why the Father loves Me He says:
because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.
In other words He is free to do as he chooses. Praise God He obeyed to the Fathers will perfectly.
Jesus saved us out of free will, which makes His love pure and makes God just and rigtheous.
It would be unrighteous to force His Son to obey. And this would NOT be Love.
However God is love, just and righteous.
