If God created more people than Adam and Eve, then how could have sin been inputed into them?

Question

As the Bible states, sin passed from Adam to all men.
But, if it was as some claim, and God made other people (hence there needed to be NO marriage betweenbrother and sister), then they would have been without sin and therefore one of them could have been the sacrifice for sin.

Would this not be a type proof that there WERE NOT other people created?

Answer 1

God did NOT create more people than Adam and Eve. And since their children were only 1 generation away from physical perfection, there was no reason they couldn't marry their brother and sisters. Since the Bible says the Life passes from the father and the form through the mother, Adam passes his "imperfect" life to us and that is why we needed Jesus' sacrifice as a perfect "man" to replace Adam's imperfect manhood.

Answer 2

It could be... I have never heard that God Created other people than Adam and Eve. Even if he did only the line of Adam survived (through Noah after the flood) so the other people created would not have had a Genetic Influence and ALL men since Noah would have been subject to sin also If the purpose of the Argument is to suggest that others were created to Prevent the Brother sister Marriage thing then they would have married the children of Adam (who had inherited Sin and therefore thier children would have inherited sin so the whole Extra Created People falls apart after one generation anyway) Lastly the Passing of Sin through Adam would imply that EVE didn't have sin (because she was created of Adam before sin) but obviously she also sinned and was cursed so the PASSING BY ONE MAN ADAM did not have to be through DIRECT genetic passage but through Spiritual Supernatural Means and therefore could have been transmitted to any other Created Beings (as a matter of fact this is why all the animals were also able to die before this there was NO DEATH even for animals but the sin corrupted ALL the earth including other created beings) Still I do not think there were other CREATED people.

Answer 3

Personally I believe that the story of Adam and Eve is just a story to explain how the earth, people, and sin were created, just like in any other religion, take Greek mythology for example, they have tons of stories about how they believe the earth came into being. I believe there were people like them, but I don't believe the whole thing went down just as the book of Genesis says it does.

Answer 4

I see where you're going...not to be a smart aleck, but God has created millions of people since Adam and Eve--he just used reproduction instead of dirt. I fully agree with you, however, that God only created two people from the dust of the earth and breathed into them His spirit. While human DNA was in perfect state and there was only one family on Earth, siblings marrying was not the issue it is today; in fact, it wasn't until God set forth the law to Moses.

Answer 5

Sisters and brothers married and had children, but it was ok to do because that was the only option.

To answer someone else, yes. Adam and Eve had daughters. There were more than just Cain, Abel, and Seth.

Genesis 5:4

And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were 800 years and he begat sons and daughters.

Answer 6

Adam & Eve were the ones that introduced sin to mankind. Thier children did marry, because at the time there was no one else to choose from & thier bodies were very close to perfection, so they would not have deformed kids. They had to fill the earth.

Answer 7

God created Adam and Eve, and through their DNA created their offspring and all people. I don't know exactly how the sinful nature is passed on, but one thing is certain, all people have chosen to sin against God and we are responsible for our choices, but salvation is found in Jesus Christ.
