In the sense that God created Adam & Eve knowing they would fall, then God’s plan BEFORE it was enacted called for them to sin. However, God Himself did not commit their sin nor encourage them to sin.

God could have created a different reality in which they did not sin. (If Tyre and Sidon had seen the miracles you have seen, then they would have long hence repented in sackcloth and ashes. Jesus could address other realities that could have been...but weren’t... because God chose a different reality to actually create.)

ears_to_hear seems to say that God caused Adam and Eve to sin. I don’t believe that for a minute. I have no doubt God knew they would sin at some point.
