God expected them to obey His law from the first day they were created. They weren't created with a knowledge of His character. On that first day of their lives they were unfamiliar with His character. Nevertheless, God required them to obey His law. There was nothing wrong with God requiring them to obey His law before they were familiar with His character. God warned them not to eat of the forbidden fruit because if they did something bad would happen to them (they would die). The serpent got them to eat of the forbidden fruit by misrepresenting God's character. This didn't happen the first day they were created. We don't know how long they walked daily with God in the garden, but they had had time to become acquainted with Him. Besides, they would would have been created in harmony with God and His principles; they were created in His image, so His character was inwrought in their very being. What is so nosy about asking if you are a father? All the fathers I know are excited about being a father and are more than willing to share the good news. Do you know if I am married?
Those who wait for the Bridegroom's coming are to say to the people, "Behold your God." The last rays of merciful light, the last message of mercy to be given to the world, is a revelation of His character of love.

Tom, I can see you are not going to concede the point. So be it.
You have on several occasions referred to your wife. Usually to point out that even she disagrees with something I've posted.

 . Sorry about that. (about only referring to her in that way) I couldn't remember if I had spoken of her or not. She's a real saint. She puts up with me. Jesus Christ was neither married nor a parent. Does that mean He could not speak about marriage or children? All I did was make an analogy. If I made an analogy involving a tree, would you ask if I had any trees in my yard? Asking about my family life is not appropriate for a public forum.

To say Jesus wasn't married or didn't have children undermines the OT depiction of Him as husband and father.

PS - I cannot remember what you believe in relation to the title question of this thread.
1. Do you think believers will continue to sin until they die?
2. If not, when do they cease to sin in relation to their death

Mike,
Well, we do know that Christ wasn't married as Adam and Eve were and as we are, therefore, I assume you are referring to this in a symbolical or spiritual sense?
