    No

    God is a God of free choice

    The tree was a test of loyalty

    Their minds were in harmony with their creator

    They were warned,if you choose to eat of the tree

    You shall surely die

    Eve was decieved,Adam chose to sin by his own free will,it was a conscious choice

    God had nothing to do with his choice,he chose to disobey,there was no set up,you inserted that into the narration,those are your thoughts and bias.What you gave an example of,is man now has a natural emnity against God,he now has a fallen mind that is bent on self.

    Mankind was created in the image of God with no natural propensity to do wrong or sin.

    Now Adams choice stained humanity,the only type of humanity that human beings can inherit,is a humanity bent or at natural odds with his maker.

    This type of humanity,must surely die

    God,seeing mans choice with his omnipotence,made a way out

    His only begotten son,dearest to his heart,would become flesh and dwell amongst us

    zech
    13] Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them BOTH.

    Through the life of his son,becoming a human,and dwelling in sinful flesh,he overcame humanity and conquered death by his life

    Now making available to mankind,a way out by faith

    Philipians 2.5
    5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

    6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

    7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

    8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

    9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

    10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

    11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.


    Philippians 2:7 says that, “Jesus emptied himself by taking the form of a servant being born in the likeness of men.”

    He did not empty Himself of His divine nature.
    Jesus is truly the son of God.

    He could not stop being the son of God.

    The emptied Himself is a reference to His position, to His exaltation and came as a human,a servant

    The angel when talking to Mary before the incarnation,
    He will be called Immanuel
    Meaning,God with us

    The messiah,mankinds redeemer

    John 3.16
    God so loved the world,that he SENT HIS ONLY BEGOTTON SON
