Anywho, you can make free will or a god work, and work together, so long as you don't mind damaging one or both of those ideas in the process. That's not really saying much, since there's no conceivable statement that can't have identical work done to it, even directly and explicitly antithetical ones.
I wonder which of God’s omni qualities Christians would be willing to weaken in order to make free will work (at least in the Aquinan sense).
