There was only ONE possible sin or path of rebellion open to Adam and Eve in their perfect environment of the Garden of Eden. This was the only point where they could disobey their perfectly loving Creator.
- Genesis 2:15 Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it. 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; 17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”
- Genesis 3:6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings
– This Original Sin began the introduction of sin into the human bloodstream and the beginning of unacceptable to God “works-based religious systems” attempting to cover sin and and our guilt.
