Bible Question: Was GOD the Father more sad when Adam fell in sin or when Jesus was on the cross weeping bitterly? |
Bible Answer: Hi misha sri, Scripture does not tell us directly. We know that it was Gods' permissive will to allow the entrance of sin, and His eternal purpose to sacrifice His Son. God was "grieved in His heart" in Gen. 6:6 , the language used being an anthropomorphism. Jesus' "...soul was deeply greived, to the point of death" according to Matt. 26:38. There is no direct reference to God, the Father being sad about either Adam or Jesus. I hope this helps, BradK |
