"Actually it's Adam and Eve who owes us the apology "

Perspectives will change in Heaven, because we see things not so clearly now. I have sinned and so have you, Eve and Adam were just the first. Although it did seem like a verrry easy thing to do to just NOT EAT THE STUPID APPLE.

But .. we all became sinners because of their original disobedience. It was not our choice - it was their choice.

I have always believed the reason GOD was willing to attempt his plan of sending Jesus was because we became sinners not by choice - but because of Adam and Eve's choice.

And .. yes, it does seem like it would have been very easy not to eat "the stupid apple".

What bothered me was that when Eve first ate the apple - nothing happened - no change took place. It was only after Adam got into agreement with Eve and he also ate the apple - then the change took place. I believe that Adam was deceived because he saw that when Eve ate the apple nothing happened - so he doubted what GOD had said - that they would die if they ate the apple.

I've always wondered what GOD would have done had Adam dragged Eve into a meeting with GOD and pleaded for GOD's forgiveness after Eve ate the apple ..??
