Did God know that Adam and Eve would disobey Him? Thus did He realize as soon as they ate the fruit that He would send Jesus Christ (himself) to earth in the future? Why did He wait so long? He must have also known that His people wouldn't beable to come to Him on their own. | ||||||

Scripture ... Job 34:22-23; Psa 139; Heb 4:13 pgs ... -God knew that Adam and Eve would disobey Him. -He knew before they ate the fruit that He would send Jesus Christ to earth. -He waited "so long" becuase the timing wasn't right. Alexander had not set up a common language, the Romans had not built roads for rapid travel ... in addition to all the prophecies about His birh. -He knew people wouldn't be ble to come to Him on their own ... we need Christ. Hope this helps, Searcher |

Before Jesus created the world thru the Fathers will,it was predestined that He would be born in the appointed time and suffer beyond recognition and die for the sin of man, 1Peter 1:18 thru 21. He knew that mankind would sin and fall, and that thru the fall, God would make known the glorious riches of his heart [nature and character]. Adam and Eve were created in the image and likeness of God. In other words, they were created with the indwelling of God's Spirit, who is the image and likeness of God. The Holy Spirit gave them the ability to walk with God and have God's nature. God told them that in the day they eat of the fruit of the tree [of the knowledge of good and evil], or [ blessing and calamity], in that day they would surely die! When they did eat the fruit; that day they did die, spiritually! The Holy Spirit nolonger was indwelling them, and they were left with only the Godless human nature. They were blessed, but now they knew pain and calamity. Cain later killed Abel displaying the nature of man without the Spirit of God. Everyone that is born into this world is born without the indwelling of God's Spirit. That is why the world has so much pain and death. They walk in the Godless human nature with it's passions and lusts. Jesus showed us His heart throughout the ages and He made his love perfectly clear by leaving his power,glory and honor in heaven, and was born human. He was born of a virgin and not by the seed of man that he should be born under the fallen nature, but he was born of the Holy Spirit above the sin nature. He was ordained [given everything he needed to accomplish His Fathers will] and was rejected by his creation and put to death. He was raised from the dead and glorified beyond that of all creation. He now gives us the power to become His sons and daughters through His blood. If we believe in the truth of the gospel[thats faith], and will follow Him in death through baptism and be raised in the newness of life [born again] through the indwelling of His Spirit. We become just like him. We too shall recieve the end of our faith even as he did. A new resurrected body free from the carnal human nature[sin], if we continue to grow in His image and likeness through His Spirit within us! | ||||||
