    Considering man is always accused for passing the buck, I assume he was off paying for the fruit, and we have been paying ever since.....by one man sin entered......

    Cheers,

    Is this an issue? Eating the fruit was not the sin, disobedience of the Highest Authority was.

    Eating the fruit was simply the the manner in which the original sin was made manifest. Man, the species, disobeyed God the creator, and man has ever since been prone to, or had the propensity (sin nature) to disobey authority, and we all disobey authority whether in our homes, our workplaces, in our cars, where we play, etc., we all challenge authority whether or not the authority is absolute or relative.

    That is where "submission" comes into play. It is when we submit to the authority of God that we truly enter the kingdom of God. While we remain in submission to God we remain his children and he treats us thus.

    When we defy God's authority, we place ourselves outside the Kingdom of God. I've been inside the Kingdom of God, and I've been outside the Kingdom of God, INSIDE IS BETTER! I'll never again leave the Kingdom again by my own will!

    While it's not good to make an argument from silence, consider this: For whatever reason, Adam wasn't a participant in the conversation between the serpent and Eve.

    Could a thought be made there about a husband and wife being separate leads to problems?

    Where was Adam?
    It seems that he was with "Dawn" the morning after he was created. [​IMG]

    Also,
    Bob what you said in your last post (11:50am) after using Galatians 2:20 example does make sense.
    And Don what you said about a husband and wife being seperate leading to problems.........I think you hit on something. [​IMG]

    ((((Hugs to all))))
