Man will blame anyone but himself (even God), it's our fallen nature.

And it is only when Man accepts his guilt, his fallen nature, and his utter and complete inability to help himself that God can actually do something about it.

This is the true meaning of Repentence, anything less, and God won't impart the necessary faith (yes it is a gift) to Man so that he can be born again.

[right way right]

When I first read this passage in a true study;
I realized I would have blamed God just as Adam did.

I knew I needed Jesus Christ and his forgiveness!

Only three chapters in the Gods word, and It points right to Christ.
