Genesis 2:16-17 (New King James Version)

16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat;

17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”

Do you think God could command Adam to eat or not eat of the trees of the garden if Adam did not have a choice, free will, to eat or not eat of the trees?

Do you think God could punish Adam, and us, if Adam was incapable of making a choice?

The fall gave us a sin nature. It did not take away are choice. It only makes it harder for us to choose God. BVB

No more until you provide Scripture references for your earlier assertions. This hit and run routine is getting old.
