Why Did God Had To Test Adam Eve With A Fruit Tree(photo) by milkymesh: 5:21pm On Dec 09, 2017
I have been a Christian all my life. However, I keep wondering why God had to test Adam & Eve with a fruit tree.
The testing is not my problem. When we build things as human we test them to ensure they fit the purpose for which we made them. God is all knowing(that mean he knew the defect inherent in his creation yet he did not perfect it. They fail the test, meaning they failed the fitness test.

Now my questions:

1. Why not eliminate them and create other human having learnt from the initial defect?

2. Why do we have to suffer for so long?

These bible stories don't just add up anymore.

There is no difference between stories in the bible and Koran. They are more of fiction, myth than real events.
The Koran is much more filled with fabrications than actual events.
All Abrahamic religion are same.

I think YOU HAVE NEVER KNOWN WHAT IT MEANS TO BE GOD..... you really have not understood what a GOD is meant to be...

GOD is an all perfect BEING that does not make mistakes or trial and error yet with infinite wisdom.

God is not MAN. so to start expecting him to act like MAN is not WISE.

If truly you have been a CHRISTIAN you would know that GOD DOES NOT MAKE SENSE but is WISDOM in everything he says and does.
NOW LET ME ANSWER U.
1. Why not eliminate them and create other human having learnt from the initial defect?- He didnt want ROBOTS. He wanted Creatures with the power of CHOICE and WILL. and even after they sinned He knew his work was still not destroyed.... WHEN A CHILD BREAKS A PLATE IN THE HOUSE... you do not kill the child n hope to give birth to a more perfect baby.... rather u clean up the mess, correct the child and move on because you know its a growth process and it wont ruin your whole life's work.... PLEASE CONSIDER THIS.

2. Why do we have to suffer for so long?- wELL this is very relative because it seems to be that it is ONLY YOU THAT IS SUFFERING.... now I know many christians who suffer but the SAD BITTER EPILEPTIC AND SEPTIC TRUTH is...............THEY DO NOT HEAR GOD FOR THEMSELVES.

How can you claim to have been a christian or a child of God for so long and you can not hear the voice of your father?? HOWWWWWW..... IT MEANS YOU ARE EITHER A BASTAARD OR YOUR FATHER IS DEAD.

Hearing the Voice of God for yourself is all your life NEEDS to take shape.

I HEAR GOD and I HAVE NEVER SUFFERED AFTER HEARING HIS VOICE, yet I can not hear for someone else.... Unless God wants to choose me to lead the person to his path. YOUR BIBLE READING MUST LEAD YOU TO PRAYER THEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO HEAR HIS VOICE. ITS NOT SCAM OR A MAGIC STUFF.... He is real and he speaks to every one.

PLEASE your questions are only proof you have not spent time with HIM or even HEARD his voice because you want a QUICK FIX... while HE wants a relationship.

PRAYER is not a request but a DISCUSSION back and forth.

lol. You must be a comedian. Listen man, when you came into this earth, you were blank, empty, plain. Thereafter, you were given an identity by the people who brought you. They indoctrinated you into what they believed in. Now as an adult (I want to believe I'm not discussing with a kid), you should make attempts to verify some things for yourself.

You believe in Islam probably because that is what you were taught from birth. Don't you think others who were taught differently would also believe differently?

Help yourself man, don't be lead by the nose. Use you brain. Its the creators intention for giving it to you. Peace!

BIBLE ISNT HOLY BOOK even christians know and so is taorah. taorah and injil were holy book given to nabiy musa and nabiy eesa. Those holy books and its authentic teachings are no longer in existence. .it went away with the death of the prophet musa and ascension of nabiy musa. Our Lord ALLAH explained it all to us in quran and also explained it to prophet muhammad.. there are tons of questions that christians and jews asked prophet muhammad during that time... try read hadiths on jews, christians and prophet muhammad ..bhrisl

These bible stories don't just add up anymore.

Don't be too fixated on the details, seek out the patterns that makes up the bigger picture. Go and read the Epic of Gilgamesh (this literature predates the book of Genesis)...same story and plot lines but different actors.

The story behind the fall of man is replicated in the very decisions we make everyday in our lives.

The Tree of Life represents an option of dependence on the power and wisdom of the Eternal Creator/Father to make right decisions.
The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil represents an option to depend on your limited knowledge and strengths to make decisions which may be right or wrong

In conclusion, I will ask you a question. When you are faced with choices to make in life...what tree do you decide to eat from?
Tree of Life vs Tree of Knowledge of Good & Evil.

My sincere apologies sir...what exactly are the lies in Christianity? kindly point them out let's discuss further...

1) Is it the divinity of Jesus?
2) The resurrection of Jesus?
3) Did Jesus die and Judas take his place on the cross?
4) Or Jesus did not just die at all?
