       Something I can't figure out 
       By: Gaffer Date: March 3, 2016, 9:15 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       There may be an explanation for my problem but I can't figure it
       out.   Can anyone explain the seeming contradiction in two
       passages Paul wrote?   First there is the passage where Paul
       says Eve started things, that she was "in the transgression."
       1 Timothy 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp
       authority over the man, but to be in silence.
       13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
       14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was
       in the transgression.
       Then we have this which seems to put the blame on Adam for sin
       entering the world.
       Romans 5:12 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:
       I've been puzzled by this for years.

       imho what is meant at Rmns.5.12 is human and it is exactly as
       stated for Christ is the head of the Church and man is the head
       of the woman[Eph.5:23 and 1Cor.11:3] - twinc

       [/quote]So sin did not enter the world when Eve ate the
       forbidden fruit?  Help me out here.

       Eve was human if not even more human than Adam - it was Adam
       that was created in the image and likeness of God and very good
       - this image and likeness was marred and became sin - twinc
