Why did Adam have to eat the apple?
by Christine on April 20, 2005
My son Matthew said today upon discovering a pimple, “Why did Adam have to eat the apple?” He asks this question every time he suffers. (And a 13 year old suffers when he has a pimple!). My response is to remind him that we would have all eaten from that tree, just as the first Adam did. But the good news is Christ is the 2nd Adam and in heaven there will be no pimples.
Theology enters into the strangest of conversations.
P.S. To my very tiny readership – long break from blogging, family duties were pressing. I need to learn to blog quickly if I going to keep this up.
