    The atonement of Jesus Christ.   Thus the availability of God's mercy to all of sinful humanity.

    Philosophically speaking, wouldn’t getting run out of The Garden, the so-called ”Fall of Man”, have been MORE pivotal, in that this was the point when sin and death (and painful childbirth) were loosed upon the world, thus creating a need for atonement in the first place?

    Philosophically those were inevitable given our free will.

    Given the conditions I mentioned, and the fact they still exist unabated, wouldn’t ”The Fall” have been even more significant in the big picture, though? This post was edited by Don Barzini at May 17, 2019 2:46 PM MDT
