Are you saying the fall was a surprise to God? Are you saying that God did not want Adam to fall, that His desire was for a sinless world?

One more time..why did jesus come again?

Are you saying the fall was a surprise to God?

NO, never said or implied it. Nothing ever can be a surprise to ALL KNOWING God. His Knowing doesn't prevent man from sinning. If it did, there would be no reason for Jesus, The Savior. We would live forever in unity on this earth forever.

Are you saying that God did not want Adam to fall, that His desire was for a sinless world?

Yes, that is why I am saying. He did not want Adam or any man to fall. Adam/Eve were created without sin for there was no sin in the world when He created it. Man brought sin into the world.

One more time..why did jesus come again?

Ultimately JESUS came to seek and to save that which is lost through sin. He came because His Father so loved the world..."For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."
