God deemed disbelief/disobedience forbidden fruit in order to actualize MFW,
thereby being capable of loving and accountable for hating (Deut. 30:19).
 
Adam obeyed.

Jesus is the lamb slain for the sins of the world,before the world was created.
God knowing what would happen and making it happen is two different things. Did God make Cain kill Abel too?

After eating,the man being made first in the image and likeness of God had only then become like God. Knowing good and evil.

here your position says Satan is right, that one can only be like God by sinning - - that God is a sinner

Adam didn't make a mistake.

Adam and Eve were following the destiny God preordained before creating the world.

here, your position is saying that God is unjust, accusing the innocent for faults they do not have.

neither can be correct:
God is just and in Him is no lie ((1Thessalonians 1:6,Titus 1:2))
there is no truth in Satan ((John 8:44))


there is no wisdom without respect of God.

You should read Genesis first before commenting.

oooh good idea.


Satan, in whom there is no truth, while deceiving Woman, told her that if she sinned by eating the fruit of the tree of death, she would become like God.

God, when Adam had heard the gospel and expressed his belief in it by changing Woman's name to Eve, covered them both with garments made by His own hand through the shedding of innocent blood, and declared to the angels that Adam had become like one of "Us"
 
So here we have a God who is the author of sin and murder?

Doll? You need to start reasoning logically.

God knew Cain would murder.
But, God did not make Cain murder Abel.
He , being Omniscient,knowing the end from the beginning, being the Alpha and the Omega, didn't plant the tree that would imbue the first humans with his same knowledge? Good and evil,right and wrong?

All things are not according to God's will and plan?

All things are not of him,for him and through him , and to his glory forever?

Curious that you left out the part after, us.
knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.

was God doing this for their good, or to harm them?

The Tree did not make them evil.
The Tree made them become aware of evil.

If you believe the tree made them evil?
Then..... it would mean, God is evil.


And the Lord God said,
“The man has now become like one of us,
knowing good and evil. '

Genesis 3:22a​

Re: Correction

the wages of sin is death - Romans 6:23


A comprehensive discussion of that passage would involve the introduction
of dispensations; which I am not adequately trained to do. So all I can really
say for now is that Rom 6:23 didn't apply in Eve's day to Eve because the
wages of sin didn't become a consequence until Adam tasted the fruit. (Rom
5:12)

I can't discuss this with someone whose reading comprehension is adversarial.
 
I understand

Found more false doctrine than I knew was involved.
You'll get past it.

Just ignore the alarmist, "THAT'S CALVINISM" , that tends to infect the unlearned and you'll be OK.

God is Righteous and immutable.
He can not be evil.

You are confusing things.
And, seem impatient.

There is a need for learning much more before making such snap conclusions.
