“”Further, if, as Scripture tells us, Jesus Christ is the “Lamb slain from the foundation of the world,” then of course God likewise purposed Adam and Eve's fall from the foundation of the world, or else you would have God ordaining an offering for something that had yet to occur in the mind of God, which is ridiculous.””

God's first cause in creating is ALWAYS goodness which cannot be sin and evil

“God saw all things that he had made, and they were very good “(Gen. i, 31): “He made all things good in his own time” (Eccles. iii, 11): “Every creature of God is good (1 Tim. iv, 4).

God did not plan the sin of Adam and Eve or any sin!

If this were true than Christ suffered for His own planned sins which cannot be possible since Christ is God and sinless

You insist on ignoring God's foreknowledge and creating us anyway out of Love so that we can freely come to Him.

I wish you a Blessed day

***God did not plan the sin of Adam and Eve or any sin!***

Dear saint, Who planted the tree in the garden, and who told them they would die if they did? In other words... God planted the tree and then established the penalty for eating from it (which he knew they would do). God didn’t HAVE to plant the tree, but he did. It is ALL part of God’s plan. Can you give any other explanation for God planting a tree that they could not eat from? WHy did he plant it? WHY?
