Is Adam in heaven or hell for commiting original sin?

Genesis 3:17 And to Adam he said: “Because you listened to your wife’s voice and took to eating from the tree concerning which I gave you this command, ‘You must not eat from it,’ cursed is the ground on your account. In pain you will eat its produce all the days of your life. 18 And thorns and thistles it will grow for you, and you must eat the vegetation of the field. 19 In the sweat of your face you will eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. For dust you are and to dust you will return.”\n\nSo, the bible clearly states that he is dead, not in heaven or the hell that the churches teach. He is in the ground!\n\nTo learn more about what the bible really teaches, have your bible ready and visit www.watchtower.org, or you can contact me.

The Bible says judge not lest ye be judged. And God makes the ultimate decisions regarding us going to Heaven or Hell. And they are both very real places. God says we work out our own salvation with fear and with trembling... but if you aren't living according the WHOLE gospel then the Bible does say one is on the path to hell. One human shouldn't say to other they are going to hell. That descision is God's and ours.

God set the price - long before Adam and Eve sinned.\n\nWhy a price? Why sacrifice? That is what I will ask Him first thing after I settle in Heaven. \n\nFor now I am thankful He did pay the price He Himself set and we can freely get to Him.

God is just a meanie, isn't he?  Shame on him for making Adam sin,   and we all deserve Heaven and a life on this earth to match.

Well, I am a believer but I will answer your question anyway---\n\nGod said: “Let us make man in our image.” (Ge 1:26) What a historic pronouncement! And what a singular position in history Adam, the “son of God,” holds—the first human creature! (Lu 3:38) Adam was the crowning glory of God's earthly creative works, not only because of the timing near the close of six creative epochs but, more importantly, because “in God’s image he created him.” (Ge 1:27) This is why the perfect man Adam, and his degenerate offspring to a much lesser degree, possessed mental powers and abilities far superior to all other earthly creatures.\nMade in the likeness of his Grand Creator, Adam had the divine attributes of love, wisdom, justice, and power; hence he possessed a sense of morality involving a conscience, something altogether new in the sphere of earthly life. In the image of God, Adam was to be a global administrator and have in subjection the sea and land creatures and the fowl of the air.\nIt was not necessary for Adam to be a spirit creature, in whole or in part, to possess Godlike qualities. God formed man out of the dust particles of the ground, put in him the force of life so that he became a living soul, and gave him the ability to reflect the image and likeness of his Creator. “The first man is out of the earth and made of dust.” “The first man Adam became a living soul.” (Ge 2:7; 1Co 15:45, 47) That was in the year 4026 B.C.E. It was likely in the fall of the year, for mankind’s most ancient calendars began counting time in the autumn around October 1, or at the first new moon of the lunar civil year. \nI hope this helps an unbeliever to believe.

Mans nature did not change.\n\nGod created man knowing he would do such a mistake. As man is not perfect. \n\nBut God did warn them.\n\nAfterwards, they were cast out of Heaven as a form of punishment for their sins but they were forgiven when they were sent to Earth. \n\nContrary to what Christians think, man is born sinless, and clean of the original sin. Because: 1. Adams sin is not my sin. 2. He already paid for it by living on Earth.

simple answer:\n\nbecause he loves you\n\nExtended answer:\n\nThe first issue revolves around the perfection in God's creation. Some Bible students believe the Genesis account teaches perfection only in Eden. Outside the bounds of paradise there was a fallen world with death and destruction. Sin had entered the universe through the fall of Satan and the earth was subject to his dominion. If the Devil had already sinned before Adam and Eve, then evil had already been brought into the universe. Adam's sin, therefore would affect only the earth, not the heavens. Some Bible commentators want to restrict Adam's sin to Eden - the small plot of ground on the earth that had not been tainted by sin. \n\nScripture says Christ’s death was part of God’s eternal purpose.\n\nThen I said, ‘Here I am - it is written about me in the scroll - I have come to do your will, O God.” First he said, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them” (although the law required them to be made). Then he said, “Here I am, I have come to do your will.” He sets aside the first to establish the second. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all (Hebrews 10:7-\n\nJesus Paid The Penalty For Sin\n\nThe death of Christ was the payment for sin—the ransom paid to God to satisfy His holy demands. The Bible pictures humans as sinners who had rebelled against God. Christ’s death on the cross paid the penalty for the sin of humankind. Jesus died in our place as our substitute, receiving the punishment that was due us.\n\nThe Bible says.\n\n[Jesus Christ] was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our justification (Romans 4:25).\n\nThe writer to the Hebrews declared.\n\nSo Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many (Hebrews 9:28).\n\nThe penalty that Jesus paid for sin was not only for the human race; it was also for everything in the universe that had been marred by sin.\n\nBecause the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God (Romans 8:21).\n\nThe demands of a holy God were satisfied by Jesus’ death on the cross.

i think we will all go to heaven. if god is good and died for all of our sins. why would he make a hell to punish people HE created. i think god is so good that he loves us all so much. so we will all go to heaven. I do not belive a hell exsist.

NO-Heaven is absolute perfection (paradise).  Why would someone who has gone to heaven be able to look back on this wicked world (imperfection)?  It would take away from what heaven is if we could.  Moreover, why would anyone from hell be able to look at earth (a place created to show God's glory)?\n\nI don't have Bible proof for you, but I am in a Sunday school class (Heaven - Will it be Boring?) and what I have learned in that class makes it so the answer just seems to be correct to me.\n\nI am sorry, but I don't believe he sees you.  I will ask my pastor though.

Not sure if its mentioned in the text but don't muslims think there was a split in heaven when Adam was created?  Something about Allah wanting all beings to worship Adam and Satan refused and led a revolt.  Some angels sided with Satan and some with Allah.  Those who could not decide were sent here as humans to make their decision.  Something like that, I'm probably butchering their theology.

Adam and Eve were supposed to be perfect humans. They sinned blah blah. There is a scripture that says that God made the earth to time indefenit. So it all depends what your beliefs are. I believe God's purpose is to rid the world of evil and let humans reach that perfect state with out the evil influence. Then and there can we be tested as perfect humans and prove our loyalty to God in this world as Adam and Eve were tested. Good times!~

Adam was a perfect huiman being.  When he (and Eve) sinned against God, he (Adam) passed his sin down to the entire human race.  \n\nJesus' death paid for our sins because his blood was the right "price":  perfect. \n\nPerfect blood brought us down, and therefore only perfect blood could redeem us\n\nAnd no, it's not "fair", it's loving, and it was necessary, because we were not capable of doing it ourselves.  And people who truly accept Jesus' sacrifice will desire to please God, not take advantage of his mercy.  God can read hearts.  He knows who is sincere and who is merely trying to get away with something.\n\n(btw...i think that was a great question)

From a biblical standpoint only... fitting since you are asking a moral question... He who sins in the mind, also sins in the Flesh. That is paraphrased, mind you.

we have all sinned, and therefore all deserve to go to hell.  but that is the beauty of christianity, that it is no doing of your own to go to heven accept for accepting Christ as your lord and saviour.  it is that simple...so whether it is sexual sin, or stealing, or lieing, we have all sinned, and are there for in the same till we ask Christ into our lives...it is that simple.

Good question!\n\nWhich brings us to the fact that Jesus was a man spreading the Word of God and not being penalized for everyone elses mistakes. They will be held accountable. We are responsable for our own actions. Would that then mean that we can freely sin since we have been saved? i think not.\n\nWell done you for highlighting this!\n\nto the person who said Jesus went to hell for 3 days to get the souls of those who were wrongfully sent there, are you implying that God makes mistakes now??\n\nand i wish people would stop rhetorically quoting the bible as their answer without explanation, like they know what it means anyway, its just rhetoric.\n\nand for the record, if all sins have been cleansed through Jesus and his crucifiction, then will someone please tell me the point of judgement day??!!!
