cmotherofpirl Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 I don't know who sinned first, but Adam sinned more than Eve.
esmith818 Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 In Mark 10:8 we read, "the two shall become one flesh. So they are no longer two but one flesh." I don't think you can say which half of the whole sinned. If Eve had resisted the serpent's advances, it's possible that neither of them would have sinned. If Adam had been present as Eve's protector, it's possible that neither would have sinned. Each committed their part, and our fallen state can be traced back to one flesh as it were. To blame original sin on either or is to ignore Mark 10:9 -- "Therefore what God has joined together, no human being must separate."
