The agency which we have from Heavenly Father - is the most important trust which we've been asked to protect and honor! That the adversary sought to take away this agency right from the beginning in our pre-mortal life shows just how important it is! One-third of the host of the heavens choose to go with the adversary - two-thirds with the Savior. Many of the two-thirds have tried to change their choice - some have been successful in doing so - while at the same time condemning themselves to anything less than the Telestial Kingdom and some to outer darkness.
None of the major religions teach anything about this as there are dependent on their membership for their own room and board as paid professionals. The Scriptures however are quite clear on the issues of agency and no-agency. Further, much of what is in the Scriptures is not taught - changed - or so mixed with the idea of mystery - confusion - or rhetoric anyone who does not read them on their own prayerfully will most likely never have a clue as to what we should and are required to know for ourselves.
Mysteries in the language has little to do with cannot be known - but to do with what is sacred and is known only through righteousness, repentance and being one with the Father and the Son - i.e. through baptism into their Church and not man's!
But, alas most choose not to listen - and would rather follow - not change - or feel any road will lead to the Celestial Kingdom. Most will find that being Saved by the worldly definition isn't the end result but only a beginning. Yet believing or led to believe it's the last step - will settle for the Terrestrial Kingdom or less.
Yes - choices you make must show who you are and what you're willing to be accountable and responsible for in your mortal probation - no one can make these choices/decisions of right or wrong - good or evil - truth or fiction - literal or rhetoric - as one reads, prays, studies, listens, ponders in their life.
“Choices Within Agency”

To each it is a given in life
making choices is their’s alone
none other can do so ever
even if man seems so clever;
Too many seek this to avoid
blaming and making excuses
professional clergy encourage
and self-agency discourage;
Choices within agency account
for the who we’ve become
adopted behavior of the world
all righteousness thus hurled
or as a child of God so found
accountable in truth bound!
