Do you have a second witness for that?Amen and God knew this BEFORE Jesus made Adam from the dust. Here's how we know:
Rev 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
What about the 1000 year reign?
Where do you place this period of time?
Before.
Or after the cosmos is burned and death is destroyed?
This seems to be a temporary period of peace...
With all those animals having sex he knew he was missing out on something before she was created and his imagination must have kicked in. He also must have surely noticed the physical resemblance between himself and other mammals-especially the apes and noticed their sexual differences and have expected to be soon provided with a similar companionship albeit human..
BTW
I once mentioned this to a female bible student JWS who was greatly offended by it and insisted that Adam went around totally oblivious to his surroundings in relation to sex. Where she derived that notion from is anybody's guess since it isn't found in their literature.
Do you have a second witness for that?
That is not a second witness, that is your personal view of God. You know all truth is established with 2-3 (or more) witnesses... where is your second witness to that Revelation verse? I have one... just wanted to see if you had another.... seeing you have deemed it your job to teach me and all.IF God could not see that Jesus would have to die for mankind's sin, He wouldn't be God. God sees the end from the beginning.
Isa 46:10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure:

You started this today by saying, "Just one more fact to add to your understanding." So, you felt the need to correct me with your perception of facts and add to my understanding. Sounds like you are trying to teach me when I didn't come to you as a student. Not that I don't appreciate your concern... it just came off as unsolicited teaching... a hint of superiority perhaps? Maybe I was wrong... if so, my apologies.I haven't taken you to teach. Why do you withhold your other witnesses? Don't you want to enlighten the poor lost sinners here? Remember what happens when you hide your light under a bushel. Mat 5:16
Amen, but 930 years after he and Eve were born again Spiritually or created in God's Image, Adam died.
*** The kingdom of God (in one form) is likened to a seed that falls to the ground, which without this process is said to abide alone.
How to be perfect (like all things God) is a matter of faith.
Amen. The ONLY way to be perfect is to be in Christ Spiritually, created Eternally by God the Trinity. Gen 1:26 Gen 5:1-2 and John 14:16 God Bless you
They had been told to multiply. The only way to multiply was with the sexual organs provided them just like other mammals were multiplying.Can you imagine the need poor Adam must have felt when he saw Eve, naked in the flesh? No wonder he sinned. Amen?
So Adam inherited sin from God? From where in the Bible do you derive that concept?I don't see the humor that you see Ken. Adam's sin was INHERITED along with his superior intelligence, which is like God's, according to Gen 3:22. Sin and death will continue until Jesus returns at Armageddon.
So your Bible never tells them to procreate? What is the name of your Bible version?Just one more fact to add to your understanding. Adam and Eve were like the Angels in Heaven, and like Christians will be in Heaven. Mar 12:25 There will be NO sex since God has something better. Amen?
Did God make Adam imperfect?
Seems as if you believe God purposefully made all the trash that has transpired on this Earth since the Fall happened on purpose. Weird! In that case one would need to view your creator as an establisher and perpetrator of sin.It was not good for man to be alone, yet God's remedy (knowingly by him), brings him to a death.
If Adam had been created incapable of perfect obedience and had a predisposition to sin, then punishing for what came natural[sinning] would constitute an injustice. It's like making an android flawed and then castigating it for that flaw. Rather whimsically cruel-don't you think? Jump over that obstacle even though I know you can't and if you don't I will use a two-by-four on you. Certainly not a fatherly behavior that engenders admiration..Good question. Was Adam created flesh? Was Adam created naked? Research those questions and you will find, in my opinion, he was created a natural man with the same weaknesses as all men including Eve.

It insures that one must believe that God will save him from his own sins. Only God can see a person's faith.
Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.
Satan was created perfect and never had to witness the sufferings like Christ.
Like given an shot of a vaccine, man was given a shot of sin that He through Christ can have resistance to it's deadly infectious disease.
Satan never got the anti-serum and was disease ridden.
Men are not androids. We are created in a fleshly body with the needs of a carnal world. God is Spirit and His wisdom is far greater than ours. Paul did not paint Adam as a great Spiritual man but rather as the beginning of those flawed by sin. Christ was created perfect, Adam, as natural man with his wife coveted against God's will, took not what was his, and disobeyed his Fathers commandment. Total weakness of all flesh.
I agree that the Bible teaches that God creates perfectly.
Ecclesiastes 7:29 ►
This only have I found: God created mankind upright, but they have gone in search of many schemes."
Where do you derive the concept that he doesn't? What biblical support can you offer to justify that conclusion? In short, where in the Bible sos it blame God for mankind's sin? The only scriptures I am aware of place the blame directly on Adam.
