.But dont you think it was too early to allow them be tempted? Though they were grown ups physically, their brains and thinking ability were just like that of babies....
God allow it to happen so He would prove himself to you and I. Think about it; if the fall hadn't occur, how would you have known that God is a saviour capable of forgiveness and saving souls that repent and trust in Him?

Another thing is that God is both a democrat and an authocrat. He can do anything and not be questioned, while He also allow you to chose which way you wish to go.

That's God for you.

Don't try hard to understand everything.
Just accept that the capability, to understand certain things with your reprobate mind, isnt there .

It is a spiritual story, a parable..to teach you that it was Gods plane all along that man should not live long on earth...the punishment for disobedience was Death..

Death is not evil, it is like God saying.. Live small in flesh, live some in spirit, live some in flesh, live some in spirit and the cycle continues.... Some have lived more than a thousand times...life is not a straight line, it is a circle... Death is just a point on it.

And the LORD God said unto the serpent,
Your question isnt framed correctly before asking
Read it yourself, to see how seriously out of sync it is

If you used your "ability to choose" to eat beans,
then the Omniscient Being, long before your "[i]ability to choose
" to eat beans, knew you'll eat beans and not rice.

The Omniscient Being, knew, you MIGHT, as an available option, want to eat rice
but when you eventually settled to eating beans, using your "ability to choose" from other choices, the Omniscient Being knew that too.
This response is like when you stop a Player Penalty shoot, AND THEN also stop him from taking rebounce shot

We can only assume that their thinking abilities were like that of babies. God created Adam as an adult. If you remember, it was Adam that gave all the animals the name they bear.

You mean Adam named all the animals on earth? In what language? What name did he give the dinosaur? What about the Panda and the kangaroo?

I always wonder why God allowed the serpent into the garden of Eden in the first place?.. God is all knowing and seeing, hence He must have known of the presence of the serpent in the garden...As a father, is he meant to allow danger come close to his children?...And if He allowed the snake into the garden just to tempt Adam and Eve, is He meant to be surprised that Adam and Eve could not resist the temptation, knowing fully well that they were highly ignorant people...
.What's your take on this?
It was an exam for the purpose of selection of those who are qualified to live perpetually as sons of God

Most of the Biblical accounts of the creation and fall of mankind are just look more and see less....

Re: Why Did God Allow The Serpent Enter The Garden Of Eden? by Nobody: 10:55pm On Dec 11, 2017
God didn't allow the serpent to enter the garden of eden, Adam did. God had already given the Adam the responsibility to oversee all tge affairs and activities that goes on in the garden so if d serpent finds its way in, Adam should be held responsible, not God.

This is d same thing dat happens to alot of us today, we neglect responsibility den wen something happens, we blame God. Like a parent keeping harmful objects around a toddler nd wen d baby injuries himself wit it, dey question God.. Nope, dey should take responsibility for their actions
