If man has free will, then how is the Bible the Word of God?

Freedom or slavery:
Does man,any man have a will that is completely free.
Or does man have a will that is partly free,which is no freedom at all.
ex.Say a man has been sentenced to prison,he is placed behind the walls of the prison and then into a cell.
Each day he has time outside in the yard,he can take a shower,eat,have his clothes washed,order things he needs (if he has money),he is even able to use the facilities,and gym.
this man seems to have freedom,yet he has no freedom seeing that others are telling him where he can go,and what he is able to do.
The TV,food and water are under the control of others.
Yet this man thinks he has some type of freedom.
Men,and women are slave to sin.
Each day they eat,sleep go to work,bathroom,do a dump,drive,tv,etc.
Yet they are bound to this life,with people nd things outside of them telling them every day what to do.
Sin evey day tells them what to do.
Freedom is only possible as Yeshua invidually sets each man,and woman free from sin and its power over them.
Until Yehusa sets them free,they will be slaves to sin until death.
John 8:35 But the slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains to the age.
John 8:36 Therefore, if the Son sets you free, you are free indeed.
If man has free will, then how is the Bible the Word of God?

FREE WILL (noun)
power of independent action and choice: the ability to act or make CHOICES as a free and autonomous being and NOT SOLELY as a result of compulsion or predestination.
its not rocket surgery there is no GRAY in free will!
Even though man has people telling him what to do all the time, We still do not have to listen.. that is free will not slavery.
There is a big difference! we learned this in civics!!
Again unless we are puppets on a string, directly controlled not indirectly controlled, we have free will!
