God did not want Adam and Eve to sin. God knew ahead of time what the results of sin would be. God knew that Adam and Eve would sin, and would thereby bring evil, suffering, and death into the world. Why, then, did God put the tree in the Garden of Eden and allow Satan to tempt Adam and Eve? God put the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden to give Adam and Eve a choice. God allowed Satan to tempt Adam and Eve to force them to make the choice. Adam and Eve chose, of their own free wills, to disobey God and eat the forbidden fruit. The result – evil, sin, suffering, sickness, and death have plagued the world ever since. Adam and Eve's decision results in each and every person being born with a sin nature, a tendency to sin. Adam and Eve's decision is what ultimately required Jesus Christ to die on the cross and shed His blood on our behalf. Through faith in Christ, we can be free from sin's consequences, and ultimately free from sin itself. May we echo the words of the Apostle Paul in Romans 7:24-25, “What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God - through Jesus Christ our Lord!”

For God to exercising foreknowledge or plan for Adam and Eve to fail would have been to predestinate them, considering that foreknown path would then have been required to in superb condition God’s foreknowledge. wherein case Adam and Eve and the masking cherub does not have stood of undertaking of going today. which would be unjust on God’s area, to set in the past them verbally an danger to appreciate eternal existence in happiness in a righteous international, while each and every of the whilst he foreknew and consequently predestinated that they'd on no account make it. it would be elevating fake hopes, which could be deceptive and unfair. Deut 32:4 says: "The Rock, suitable is his activity, for all his techniques are justice. A God of faithfulness, with whom there is no injustice." If God deliberate for Adam to sin, the injustice would have been on God's area. even though it wasn't. He did not choose to forsee what Adam would do. The try Adam became into given would have been surpassed. It became into his very own fault that he failed, not God's.

Ofcourse it was. God knows everything. Did you think Adam could pull a fast one on God?

Do you think there was anything God didn't know. And again, people, I ask you to read your book of Genesis. God did not tell Eve not to partake--she hadn't been created when he told Adam about the tree--so she can't be blamed.

NO it was not God's will,God's plan. .......and as the early people didn't quite get it He sent Jesus (The second Adam) to clear up the mess of the first.

It was Adam AND Eve's sin.
THEY ate of the tree.

No--because of EVE talking him into eating the apple--women have pains monthly and have horrible pain with babies.
