kid talk about sin

As i was talking to my son about the story of Adam and Eve, this is what he said.

son: I guess the world would have been different if they didnt eat the fruit. We would probably get to grow old and not die. But maybe that is how it was meant to be because it will be too many people on earth and we will run out of space. Everything really has a reason.

i: maybe you are right, we wouldnt know though because we are on this path.

son: yeah! I think it is just like a maze, if you go this path, this is how you end…if its a different path, u could get stuck…

i: that is what u call “consequences.” Every action we do, whether good or bad, there is always a consequence…

Yes indeed consequences for choices we make. Thank God we have a Saviour. I hope your son finds his way to the cross. xxx

In my church we have a unique perspective about Adam and Eve. They were given two commandments- to multiply and replenish the earth and to not partake of the forbidden fruit. However, as long as they stayed in the garden, they would’ve remained in a complete state of innocence, having no children. “Adam fell that men may be”. Here’s a great article explaining this- https://www.lds.org/ensign/1998/01/what-modern-revelation-teaches-about-adam?lang=eng
