You have to understand that up to that point I believed everything my parents and teachers told me about Jesus. At that age in my mind Jesus was the ultimate superhero. I had no idea what a heretic was. But unfortunately I was born with a logical mind and thought in chronological order and made the mistake of asking a child's question based on the chronology of the bible fully expecting my teachers to have the answer.Well, my parents found out I was a nonbeliever the same time I found it out. In my Catholic grammar school I asked a question none of the priests and nuns could answer and they called me a heretic and called my parents at home to find out who told me such blasphemy, not believing that a 7 year old could come up with such a devastating question on their own.I have a few questions for the anti God crowd.
This is for those that have parents that believe in God,how do you tell your parents you don't believe in God ?
1.Do you say College taught me there is no God.
2. Do you say it's not cool to believe in God.
3. Do you say you don't believe in fairytales.
4. Do you say there is no evidence of God.
5. Do you say only people that are nuts believe in God.
6. Do you simply keep your views on it from them.
My parents gave me a beating for embarrassing them.
Praise God.
So what did you ask ?
We were taught that we were never alone when we were one with God, and we were only alone when we are separated from God by sin. So I asked:
Chronologically, Adam was not separated from God by sin until AFTER Eve was created. So before Eve was created, Adam was in a heavenly state of physical perfection, without sin, in paradise, and one with God.
So how could Adam have been so "alone" it was "not good" BEFORE he was separated from God by sin??????
Gen 2: 18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
