1 | Adam and Eve Perfect or Flawed | 1 Tim 2:11 | Seeker888 | 208160 | ||
Hello. Maybe the fact that she changed the command shows that she had already lost the knowledge of God and his command. Perhaps this indicates that sin had already entered the picture before the fruit was even eaten. The eating of the fruit was an outward sign of an inward reality. This might push us to recognize sin at its root level first and then the fruit level secondarily (the way it comes out). So we can see a misunderstanding on her part in this response and furthermore in both Adam and Eve in the fact that they accepted the serpents argument about not surely dying, but that they could become like God. Another potential problem with this idea that they could not do evil because they hadn't eaten of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is that if this was the case, how could they be held accountable for eating of the tree? They wouldn't have known this was bad or good right? This would come after they ate right? So this would render the original command to not eat as an arbitrary command. Therefore, if man was to be held accountable for his action, he must have been able to know what was good and what was evil. This should push us to consider how we can have this knowledge and show that it is clear. |

Dear Seeker, No, it is for sure that sin did not enter the world unless they ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Please re-read Genesis 2 and 3. Shalom Azure |
