Just read your Genesis - the woman was behind it both times. It is not a hard concept!! It is actually obvious and why resist.

I am not suggesting that Mary was atoning - Jesus alone atoned. Mary had to put him in position, because Eve unfortunately put Adam into position - a set up.

Why is this a problem? It is perfect justice.

Could you please give the exact scripture where GOD blames the woman????????? See I know that Adam blamed 'that woman', and God for giving him 'that woman', but come on before 'that woman' was ever made, Adam was told directly by GOD to NOT mess with that very specific 'tree'/serpent/devil. The actual Genesis account read as Written sure does NOT make man look all that strong or very willing to take instruction.

Try reading it again...

Genesis 3:7-86So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate. 7

Then

the eyes of

both

were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loincloths.

The sin did not enter until after the MAN ate. THEN they both saw that they were naked.

Romans 5:12-21 12Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned— 13for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law. 14Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sinning was not like the transgression of Adam, who was a type of the one who was to come.

15But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man’s trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many. 16And the free gift is not like the result of that one man’s sin. For the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the free gift following many trespasses brought justification. 17For if, because of one man’s trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.

18Therefore, as one trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all men. 19For as by the one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man’s obedience the many will be made righteous. 20Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, 21so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through righteousness leading to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Teaching that sin came into the world through woman and that she is responsible is contrary to the clear teaching of Scripture. And teaching that it is the responsibility of a woman to provide atonement is also unscriptural.
