[Jack of all Trades]

Per the Bible, God is omniscient and omnipresent. He knew that Adam and Eve would eat from the tree when he created them. Per Genesis, the fall of Man was a push.

I find it interesting that Timothy 6:10 says “For the love of money is the root of all evil”, but in Genesis the original sin was hypothesis testing.

Did God know that the created angel, Lucifer, would fall long before all of this - and that he would later then lie to Adam and Eve in the garden?

1.) Did God decide to cause some to be saved and some to go to hell, or 2.) did God decide to create a universe in which all people would each be given a way of salvation, and then bring into existence each person’s decision to accept or reject salvation when He created this universe?

Is it 1.) Calvinism, Arminianism, or 2.) the above - a fusion of both?

Read it again, it’s all kinds of evil. Not all evil.

money is the root, not the seed. the root give sin it's strength.
