Adam and Eve's Free Choice

God created man for fellowship. However man disobeyed God by eating the fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Now when Adam was created he was created very good.
"Is it possible for a depraved and defiled creature to obtain access unto the thrice Holy One?......not only does God debar the sinner from access, the sinner himself has no desire to approach unto Him—rather does he wish to flee as far as possible from His presence. A sense of sin and the guilt of it upon the conscience drives the sinner from the Lord. This fact was also solemnly exemplified at the dawn of human history—just as long as our first parents remained in dutiful subjection to their Maker, walking in obedience to His commandments, they enjoyed blissful communion with Him; but as soon as they became self-willed and rebellious, all was radically altered. After they had eaten of the forbidden fruit and they heard the voice of the Lord God in the Garden, they fled in terror, seeking to hide from Him. And thus it has been ever since."

Today man has no desire to seek God

"There is none that seeketh after God" (Romans 3:11). It was God who sought out and called Abram while yet an idolater. It was God who sought Jacob at Bethel when he was fleeing from the consequences of his wrong doing. It was God who sought Moses while a fugitive in Midian. It was Christ who sought out the apostles while they were engaged in fishing, so that He could say, "Ye have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you." (John 15:16). It was Christ who, in His ineffable love, came to seek and to save that which was lost. It is the Shepherd who seeks the sheep, and not the sheep that seek the Shepherd. How true it is that "We love Him because He first loved us." (1 John 4:19). It was not Adam who sought God, but God who sought Adam. And this has been the order ever since."
