Background:
Dad was in Bible School when i was born. Glad Tidings was a Assemblies of God school. The blessings of being born into a Christian family I will ever be thankful for. The family lived and breathed Dispensational thinking. Some of my earliest memories are making sure i was right with Jesus because the nation of Israel had formed and it was now about 7 years beyond 1948. So scared i had sinned and would be left, mind you i was 9 -10 . The secret rapture ... if Mom was not home for some reason when school got out the fear of being left behind would hit again time after time... Didn't expect Dad to be home he was a tree faller along with pastoring a small Pentecostal church. The point here is i grew up with a heavy dose of Dispensationalism. Thinking a Scofield Bible was THEE Word of God.
I am not a good writer, struggle with making myself clear. Because of this reply from a fellow poster i will attempt this thread.

I would like to be able to continue the conversation. On reading the Schofield notes you posted I would want to understand your own reasons for likening his words to an equivalence of the deception that took place in the garden. Thats a very strong position - but you must have your own way of explaining yourself. So a new thread would be valuable I think. To me at least. Thanks.
