Chessmaster as I understand the Bible the first man had a choice. He could not eat the fruit and live in the garden forever or he could eat the fruit and die.
He chose to eat the fruit and die. God then kicked him and all his descendents out of his paradise.
As it stands today all mankind are residents of the devils world except those that have been redeemed.
John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Man is already condemned. You don't have to do anything to go to hell (lake of fire). You are already going there.
So the only choice you would have is to not go there if you so choose.
God Bless,
