Did God decree the fall of mankind? Did He have to?

I do not know what you think faith is.... But, it's probably not as simple as the Bible makes it to be. It's probably faith + something you deem equally important. Consequently, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. Romans 10:17 Abraham simply heard the Word, and he...

Are the Jews the enemies today?

Already taken care of by God. "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." Galatians 2:20 .

Abraham was a Gentile till age 99. He was saved before then. Jews did not crucify Jesus. Certain Jews did.. Almost all 99% the Bible, God used Jews to write it. Too many gentile believers show a bias that is uncalled for.

Your point was? Are you walking in the Garden now?

What was walking around?

Why thank you, Mr. Soundbite. You will use the same thing every time. But, never showing why it is so...

Decreeing something will be, is not the same thing as creating it. If God did not decree the fall? There would have been no fall. God decreed everything that takes place in time to suite his purpose. What will be, will be... God's decree eliminated all the possible alternatives in what we...

More to it than that.... It will shake you to your core. That's why it says... Work out your own salvation in fear and trembling.

Why have to given up?
