God gave man the law knowing man could not live up to it.
Isn't reasonable to conclude that God had a plan to bring man to his righteousness?

Leary...The tree of knowledge of good and evil represents the law, God's righteousness. It was not meant to imply that Adam was totally ignorant.

Yes Hug God knows everything it is the reason he paid the penalty of death for all who accept the atonement.

Gorgeous, All law is God's righteousness my answer is yes I definitely believe God cares who we sleep with but notnecessarily the church you attend the church is the body fo\\of Christ not a building. There is a way that seems right ot amn and this way ends in death...rather than using a man's common sense you should seek the revelation of God.

Truth, It is not by the wisdom of a man anyone knows God but by his revelation which I would prefer over all of the education any man can provide, I never said God created the problem he created man with a free will and then delivered the man from his sin by paying the penalty of sin.

Blue sage giving you a free will makes God imperfect? God can not sin he is not under law and is a righteous God.
The God that gives you life can righteously require it.

Dutchess we can know the answer if we believe the word of God. The question only delves into the predestination that does exist in that the lamb was slain before the foundation of the world. It does ntoimply that you personal life is predestined but that salvation is predestined.

Bill, Jesus had a choice with this we do agree but the choice is definitely predetermined by who Jesus is.. a righteous and merciful God who followed his Father's plan completely.
God's plan is perfect and Jesus was the only one who could fufill the law as he himself is a perfect God who became flesh to pay the penalty of sin for those who will accept the atonement.
2007-09-04 11:45:19 · update #14
Yes, God absolutely knew this before creation. It didn't catch Him by surprise. Ephesians 1 says that he chose us before the foundation of the world so yes, he had a plan of redemption in place before creation.

Yes, He created man in His image (likeness) to make choices (Gen1:26,27 & 2:7). He (God) did not create robots. He placed two trees in the garden of Eden. The tree of life and the tree of knowledge of good and evil (Gen.2 :9 &15-17). He was talking in Gen 3:22 to someone else. The Spirit and the Son, and said that they must be removed from the garden because they have become as one of us, to know good and evil. Unless they was removed they would live eternally in that state of sin if they had gotten a hold of the tree of life. God already had another plan in mind "Jesus".

Yes amen it says in the bible {He know our thoughts} Just think about that how Awesome is that. He knows our thoughts before we think them. In the same way He knew us before we knew our selves and it also declares that in the bible. See I believe that we were once with God before we came here and He choose whom shall be our mother and dad. God knows our very thought's then is proved without a second thought. God is what keep us going everyday. Hope I answered your Christian right but not to get chosen best but just want to know it was somewhere around good. Well take care and God Bless.

I don't think it's as simple as foreknowing, given that time does not exist. Everything as we know it happens at the exact same instant. We as humans, however, do not have the ability to understand it completely.
Man could live up to the law, there were several examples in the bible of people who did, Jesus, Mary, and everyone else who was assumed because they did not sin. Even still, it was a good deal for us, because what we gained with heaven, is much better than what we lost in Eden.

What extra data could you have them had? God spoke to them directly, walked with them interior the cool of the night in a paradise, they knew God extra suitable than any porophet or different totally human guy or woman ever has, the only guy or woman to appreciate God extra suitable than Adam and Eve is Jesus himself. As for did God foreknow the tip result, I doubt it. The very concept of omniscience which ability understanding the uknowable is a logical contradiction, yet omniscience is used to describe the way an author is in the direction of the characters in his or her e book, so omniscinece can and could be defined as understanding all that there is to appreciate. in addition to the belief of understanding what somebody is going to do in the previous they do it with one hundred% fact is opposite to the belief of unfastened will. effective God is universal with what you are going to invite for in the previous you ask for it yet it somewhat is becuase God is universal jointly with your contemporary situation and needs and is universal with what selection you have made on the precise 2d you're making it yet no longer in the previous in the different case there is not any such factor as unfastened will. Now that being reported, any 0.5 decently clever guy or woman can be sure the main probable consequence, while as a newborn I first examine Genesis I knew they have been going to devour the forbidden fruit because of the fact it replaced into forbidden, so neither I nor God would have established with one hundred% fact that they could devour the fruit yet absolutely everyone with 0.5 a suggestions no longer to show God's supernatural mind could are conscious of it replaced into the main probable consequence. Which lead us to ask your self, did God choose Adam and Eve to defy him and it replaced into purely slightly revrese psychology? Or replaced into God, like each and every sturdy be sure, giving their newborn slightly believe interior the desire that it may breed accountability understanding that regardless of if the youngster responded properly or badly it may nevertheless be a getting to know and turning out to be adventure.

No, we can't !!
God lives by faith, too !! He placed a veil between Himself and several events in the OT. And one major veil regarding if Jesus would go through with His mission. Praise God that Jesus did !! Or it would be all over and we'd all go into sheol .
God needed Eve and Adam to eat of the 'knowledge of good and evil' ...That dichotomy is the engine that drives His and our evolution.
But, it also required a major feat of 'correction'; and He accomplished it.

Yes He did, but it was still man's free choice to do so. God's forknowledge of events does not conflict with free will. God weaves history the way an artist weaves a tapestry. He knows what choices we will make, but then He makes sure His divine plan arises from our choices.
