You explained nothing. So how did sin enter the world, through Eve or through Adam? Paul elsewhere puts the "blame" on Eve.
1 Timothy 2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
I see that you mean to silence me, lol!
In this passage, Paul is not saying that sin entered the world through Eve. Otherwise, Paul would be contradicting himself when he said,
Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned… (Romans 5:12 ).
Read the Genesis account of the Fall. God assigns blame to the serpent (i.e. the devil) and to Adam. He doesn’t assign blame to Eve. He only pronounces the curse on her.
Genesis 3:11-19—
Then He asked, “Who told you that you were naked? Did you eat from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
Then the man replied, “The woman You gave to be with me — she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate.”
So the Lord God asked the woman, “What is this you have done?”
And the woman said, “It was the serpent. He deceived me, and I ate.”
Then the Lord God said to the serpent: Because you have done this,
you are cursed more than any livestock
and more than any wild animal.
You will move on your belly
and eat dust all the days of your life.
I will put hostility between you and the woman,
and between your seed and her seed.
He will strike your head,
and you will strike his heel.
He said to the woman:
I will intensify your labor pains;
you will bear children in anguish.
Your desire will be for your husband,
yet he will rule over you.
And He said to Adam, “Because you listened to your wife’s voice and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘Do not eat from it’:
The ground is cursed because of you.
You will eat from it by means of painful labor
all the days of your life.
It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field.
You will eat bread by the sweat of your brow
until you return to the ground,
since you were taken from it.
For you are dust,
and you will return to dust.”
How could Adam obeyed if God already knew in advance that he wouldn't? You state that in another post.
Foreknowledge (i.e. knowing what will happen in the future) does NOT determine what will happen in the future. IOW, just because God KNEW that Adam would disobey His command, God did not predestine Adam to disobey. Your fallacious logic about this is based on human reasoning, not on the truth.
So you say, so you say. But if that is so, why do you hint that maybe I have a demon? Just because I don't agree with you? That is an satanic accusation if I ever heard it. I'm not imagining it the way you imagine I might have a demon. The evidence is in front of us.
Perhaps people should "fear" to be honest with you. Perhaps I shouldn't told you I used to use Tarot cards. Perhaps it's not safe for anyone ever to confess past misdeeds to you. Your imagination runs riot. Do you believe Jesus can change people's lives? Or is it only you who is "saved by grace"? I could confess to other sins from my past. Would you hold them also against me?
James 1:26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
Matthew 12:37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
I’m glad that you were open about your involvement in the occult. I have prayed for you about this and, hopefully, others have as well, that you will be delivered from
demonic influence, to which you have opened a door! We are to confess our sins to one another and pray for one another
so that we may be healed! I consider any involvement in the occult to be a sin.
James 5:16—Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The urgent request of a righteous person is very powerful in its effect.
Please consider that Jesus healed and delivered all who came to Him.
Acts 10:37-38— You know the events that took place throughout Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism that John preached: how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how He went about doing good and healing all who were under the tyranny of the Devil, because God was with Him.
You say that I hinted that you “have a demon.” I did not even imply this. You have twisted my words. Saying or implying that someone has a demon implies that the person is possessed of the devil, which means that the devil owns the person, IMO. I would NOT say this about a fellow Christian. You need to retract your false accusation.
My Bible says nothing of the sort. This idea was invented by pagan philosophers who worshiped "knowledge" -- and I can tell you from my history of using Tarot cads, most people are intrigued by being able to predict the future and "know it all" before it happens. God doesn't fill Him Mind with trivia.
God first of all knows the beginning and the end. How things will end is known. Nothing you or I or anyone else can do is going to change that. It's a foregone conclusion. The "ending" exists in the Mind of God -- and eventually everything will conform to that picture. It's like a jigsaw puzzle in a way. You have the picture and you have the pieces. You know what the end result will be; but you don't know where all the pieces go, and which ones you will fit together first.
God says He forgets sins when we repent. He does. The sins no longer exist. They are in the "past" and the "past" isn't real -- only "now" is real. Similarly God does not imagine "evil" in the future in the way men may think. Many things are predictable (as I can tell you by my history at fortunetelling), but man still has free will.
People often get confused by what prophecy is. God is not "predicting" the future. That would be making God into a fortuneteller. Prophecy is God saying He will make something happen. There's Power behind it, not just predicting.
God’s omniscience is a biblical truth.
1 John 3:19-20— This is how we will know we belong to the truth and will convince our conscience in His presence, even if our conscience condemns us, that God is greater than our conscience, and He knows all things.
God’s omniscience does not negate man’s free will!
Wow, are you saying that you could know the future using an occult method, but God doesn’t know the future??? So, the devil showed you things that God doesn’t even know?? If this is what you’re saying, it is an absurdity of the highest degree!
Predicting the future is only “fortunetelling” when it’s done by the power of the devil — occult power. In truth, the devil lies about knowing the whole future. He only knows what GOD reveals.
Only God Almighty is truly and completely omniscient!
