WCF Chapter 9 Question - Adam's free will vs. ours in glory

From reading Chapter 9 of the WCF today, I had a question with regard to Section 1 and Section 5. From section 1, Adam appears to have been originally given a liberty of will to choose good or evil. From section 5, it appears that our will is not like that in glory. In glory, our will no longer has the ability to choose evil, only good. So, does God violate our natures? Does he alter something within our wills so that it is no longer like the will that Adam was given? For, Adam could choose good or evil; but we will only be able to choose good.

Blessings!
