1 6/13/2009 3:58 PM 1 of 8 Basic Beliefs Our Stories Worship With Us Ask a Question Agency and the Fall of Adam and Eve As a consequence of their choice to eat of the fruit, Adam and Eve became mortal and were separated from God s presence both physically and spiritually. This is referred to as the Fall. God Is Our Heavenly Father (0:47) Adam and Eve were the first of God s children to come to Earth. They were created in God s image, with bodies of flesh and bones. God placed them in the Garden of Eden. Here they did not remember their former existence though they were still able to enjoy God s presence and could have lived forever. As Heavenly Father has blessed all of His children with the freedom to choose, Adam and Eve were given agency to make their own choices on the earth. He commanded them not to eat the forbidden fruit, or the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Obeying this commandment? meant they could remain in the garden, but they could not progress by experiencing opposition in mortality. They could not know joy because they could not experience sorrow and pain. Thus, as a part of the plan Satan was allowed to tempt Adam and Eve to eat the forbidden fruit and they chose to do so. As a consequence, they were separated from God s presence physically and spiritually an event referred to as the Fall. Adam and Eve then became mortal subject to sin and death and were unable to return to Heavenly Father without His help. They could now experience disease and all types of suffering. They had moral agency?, or the ability to choose between good and evil, which made it possible for them to learn and progress. It also made it possible for them to make wrong choices and to sin. In addition, they could now have children, so the rest of God s spirit children could come to Earth, obtain physical bodies, and be proven. All this was in accordance with the plan of God. Only in this way could God s children progress and become like Him. Heavenly Father then sent angels and the Holy Ghost? to teach Adam and Eve the plan of salvation?. Central to this plan is the Atonement? of Jesus Christ, which enables God s children to overcome the effects of the Fall and to obtain eternal life by obedience. We are not responsible for the Fall of Adam and Eve, but we are responsible for our own sins (Articles of Faith 1:2).
