Did God, at the time of creation, know that if Adam and Eve sinned, Jesus would have to die?

Answer 1

He had to make the decisions that would lead to our future. Before you judge him, think... What would life be if Adam and Eve had not eaten the fruit? There would be no betrayel, and no seperation of them from heaven, thus meaning, there were really, and technicaly, no 'humans', but part humans. And what if Jesus did not die for God to forgive our sins? Would the rapture have come earlier? Would humans have been permanantly pulled away from God?

Answer 2

God did not make Adam and Eve sin but he did give them freewill which ultimately led to the sin. He most likely did know that Jesus would die a cruel death to end up getting resurrected in the end but it was all an important step in drawing people closer to god.

Answer 3

Yep, and since Jesus was alive and part of the megazord that is God, he knew it too.

Rather than dealing with Satan (the serpent) when he should have, he let a chain of events pass that would lead to his son being killed in the most awful manner imaginable.

And that would allow the rest of humanity to suffer, die, and never know if God was real until it was too late. A chain of events he foresaw and could at any time have prevented.

Answer 4

The word "omniscient" means "all knowing". The word "omnipresent" means "everywhere". The word "omnipotent" means "all powerful".

Anything endowed with those qualities would be aware of everything that happened at any given moment along the vast time line in every possible and actual universe and every possible consequence of each and every action (or thought).

Such a scenario is inconceivable and impossible. But if it were true, then the answer to your question would have to be yes.

Answer 5

Uh, isnt that kinda the definition of ALL KNOWING?

This is why I maintain that the creation of mankind was solely performed for the purpose of God needing a scapegoat in order to murder his own Son. So, he creates man, KNOWING he would sin and require the death of Jesus. God had a vendetta and this is how he solved it. Dont mess with the Mafia God!

Answer 6

makes you think about things doesn't it?
if that IS the case, then Yahweh will have punished Adam and Eve
UNNECESSARILY !!!
hmmmm, that can't be huh?!?
He's a loving God, right?
unless ...
there are other reasons for this apparent discrepancy?
like the Bible has been tampered with?!?
hmmmm ...
then, we all have to make up our OWN minds.
free choice!!! there's nothing greater for a being with a mind that can appreciate the thought.

hope this helps

Answer 7

Yes for the reason that He sent Jesus for the purpose of restoring the relationship with Him. Instead of creating robots who just nod their heads with mindless apathy to a deity, which some religions want which is why they come up with incantations and mantras to empty your mind, He had a long-term plan set in motion so we could discover Him and decide to either accept Jesus or not.

Answer 8

Yes

Answer 9

now this is one of the mistakes you athiests make

NO god did NOT know adam and eve would sin.
you all turn what we say against us when we say that god knows all.
god knows all of the choices there are in a circumstance
and of all the outcomes of those choices
he lets us decide what to do
thus free will

Answer 10

I guess so. Seems kind of mean to let it all happen, doesnt it? He set it up so mankind would have a crappy existence and probably go to hell anyway AND his own son would die a horrible death.
