Sinless Life, Became A Life "Cursed By Sin"

Genesis 3:8
"And they heard the voice of the Lord walking in the garden
in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid 
themselves from the presence of the 
Lord God amongst the trees 
of the garden."  

      They were without sin because they knew no Sin. They were not born through man but through God. Placed in a garden to live, where they lived in peace; "Until Eve was tempted by Satan, at the tree of Knowledge of good and evil." There may have been many other reasons for the tree of Knowledge of good and evil, but for Adam and Eve, it functioned as a test of "Obedience." They had to choose whether to obey God or break His commandments.
      However, Eve did eat fruit from the tree, than Adam followed suit. Since they both ate from the tree of Knowledge of good and evil; "The Forbidden Fruit" the consequences of their actions became self evident. They found themselves in a different relationship with God because of "Disobedience to His commandments," therefore sin enter the world at that point. Even though Eve ate the Forbidden fruit first, Adam and Eve were both responsible for their action's; However; the first Sin was Called "The Sin of Adam."  "But they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously with me." (Hosea 6:7). "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: For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adams transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come" (Rom. 5:12-14).    
      The question that faced Adam and Eve are the same one's that face us today. Which path should be chosen? What kind of relationship do I want with God?  My Friend, when you answer those two question's, answer with your heart, not your mind.
Amen!
