Adam didn't add the words on...Eve did. Let me explain and see what you think.

Backing up....Eve was “deceived” (Note: Interesting that even woman today are more easily deceived then men.)

There is no written conversation between God and Eve commanding her what to eat... so it could certainly be assumed Adam told her what God said especially as she said ‘WE’ in response to the serpent's deception.

Adam,..on the other hand..outright ‘sinned’ against God's command spoken directly to him as the scripture records.

Therefore, Sin entered the human race directly by the one man Adam and the one man Christ freed us from that sin.

I can't recall right now the scripture referencing ‘By one man” in the new testament...perhaps I'll hunt it up later. But I know your familiar with the one I'm referencing.

Something kinda funny....You know Eve exaggerating what Adam likely told her is something woman continue to do today as well. tsk tsk

Well; it was nice knowing you... ;^)

I said OR...

Facts are; we do not KNOW which one did; they just appear in the record.

OOOooooh!

It appears it will be closed casket!

Yup, I usually use if for EVOLUTION debates.

Most Christians 'believe' Evolution because they do NOT know what their Bible says.

If, as they say, they 'believe' the words of Jesus and the New Testament writers,

then they have to decide what the following verses mean:

Acts 17:26-27
26. From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live.
27. God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.

Romans 5:12-21
12. Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned--
13. for before the law was given, sin was in the world. But sin is not taken into account when there is no law.
14. Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come.
15. But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God's grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many!
16. Again, the gift of God is not like the result of the one man's sin: The judgment followed one sin and brought condemnation, but the gift followed many trespasses and brought justification.
17. For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ.
18. Consequently, just as the result of one trespass was condemnation for all men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life for all men.
19. For just as through the disobedience of the one man, the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.
20. The law was added so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more,
21. so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

If there were no one man, that means SIN did NOT enter the World thru him.

If Adam was NOT the one man, that means SPIRITUAL DEATH did not come thru him.

If SIN did NOT enter the World thru the one man, that means Jesus does not save from SIN.

Are we to believe that the one man is symbolic? Does that mean Jesus is symbolic as well?

The Theory of Evolution states that there WAS no one man, but a wide population that managed to inherit that last mutated gene that makes MEN different from APES.

Acts 17:24-26

24. "The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands.
25. And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because he himself gives all men life and breath and everything else.
26. From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live.

Was LUKE wrong about this?

1 Corinthians 11:8-9
8. For man did not come from woman, but woman from man;
9. neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.

1 Timothy 2:13

For Adam was formed first, then Eve.

Was Paul WRONG about these???

If so, is GOD so puny that He allows this 'inaccuracy' in His Word??

And THIS verse is completely against E!!!

Genesis 2:18
The LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him."

Ever wonder what Adam was doing while he “was there with her?” Did he not sin by standing by?
