Casting Crowns - The Altar and The Door Sneak Preview

I undersatnd if your objection is whether these choices are informed or not, however, God wants everyone to be saved (1Timothy2:4) He will not trick those whom He loves and has called by name into making the wrong choices. There is no lie in Him. Lies come from the father of lies a.k.a satan

We are back at the subject of freewill, God created all beings with choices, the choice to obey or disobey. Satan was beautiful, but sinned against God by his disobedience. I know what you mean, like how can there be inperfection within perfection, right?! However, God created beings with the capacity to love. Love has be given freely, by choice. By creating choice, God created the possibility that His beings could choose to love Him, to serve Him, or to serve themselves.

Regarding sin already being in the world before Eve chose to disobey, I believe you made a correct observation the tree was called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which would mean that evil had already arrived. That is satan had already been thrown out of heaven by God for his rebellion against God. All the heavenly beings have freewill regarding obedience and disobedience.

An angel cannot disobey, when the world is created perfect, by a perfect being, disobeying is not an option, period, it would be impossible, therefore making your God impossible.

elvismilk, it would seem that you have decided upon your viewpoint. Perhaps your questions were rhetorical. However, you asked some big questions which warranted large answers....maybe I could have done so having used fewer quotations, but they are relevant to the discussion. Adam and Eve were faced with a choice to obey or disobey, and chose the latter. God forewarned them of the consequences of this, but did not take away their right to choose. This does not mean that they did not understand

If you don't understand the question, then how can you be expected to figure out what is the correct decision? You can't have it both ways, lah, having choice but not understanding what you are choosing. "you will die" is incomprehensible to an immortal being.

Hello, "Lead us not into temptation", God did exactly that, he provided no protection for Adam and Eve. Realizing they were naked, hello God created them naked what's to be embarrassed of? A immortal being can't understand what "to die" means, period, therefore she would not understand the command from God. And stop quoting scripture, all it does is help the side of anthropomorhpism, and hurt your case.

Obviously the Scripture I quoted was meant to be ....giving us right standing with GOD not Gid!!!!

Romans 5:21 So just as sin ruled over all people and brought them to death, now God's wonderful grace rules instead, giving us right standing with Gid and resulting in eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord

The Good News is there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus!!
Revelation 7:10 And they were shouting with a mighty shout, "Salvation comes from our God who sits on the throne and from the Lamb!". Revelation 7:17 For the Lamb on the throne will be their Shepherd . He will lead them to springs of life-giving water. And God will wipe every tear from their eyes."
