Bible Question: What was the First Sin?

And to think that Adam and Eve were thought to be perfect before they actually ate the fruit. So in essence, the first sin was an innocent little white lie? Funny how those things can grow!

IF God exists, then I see it like this:

​

1) Free will was offered. Humanity became aware of it. Willful rebellion (freethinking) was thus a reality.

​

2) Jesus Christ, who was foreknown from the beginning (since whatever humans do can't be a surprise to God since He is omniscient) became willful reconciliation. We thus have a choice in the matter.

​

3) God accepts all people. Not all people accept God.

​

Either:

​

God foreknows who will and will not accept Him. This acknowledgment matters.

​

God foreknows who will and will not accept Him. This action (on our part)does not matter.

​

We choose our own destiny through our behavior.
or
We choose our destiny through our acceptance alone.(unmerited Grace)

​

so either:

​

God does not exist. We still choose our legacy through behavior.
or
God exists. We choose our destiny and reconciliation through either acceptance (willful subordination) and/or behavior.

​

Is this confusing enough yet?
