In the beginning...

hey
so i was reading Genesis tonight, and while i was reading i had a thought (and yes to those who are asking yes it does hurt...) any was according what i was reading for my intro the other night, with out the law there is no sin yes?? ah well with out the law we know no sin to put it in a different way. well i was reading Genesis about the fall into sin and i suddenly thought, well God put a law in place to make sure they didn't eat of the tree of good and evil, doesn't that mean that there was sin at the beginning of the world??? help me on this cause it really confused me.

i'll try and rephrase that. ok so at the begining God said to Adam 'don't eat of that tree'. that would be a law? and with out the law we know no sin. so if there was no sin at the beginning of the world than why would God say that? are you getting where i am comming from?? i hope so and i hope some one can clarify that for me...

I also found it very interesting that when God says let us make man in our own image, male and female... hang on i'll quote it word for word... Gen 1:27 "so God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them...." But that was before it says that He put Adam to sleep and created Eve, can you see where my question is there?? I have to do some reading up on that so when i find out the answer to my questions i will let you all know.

any way i am writing, or typing rather, in the dark with out the battery of the computer plugged in so i better go.
see you all soon :)
