Adam And Eve Eating ‘Forbidden Fruit’ Doesn’t Hold Water…What You Eat Can’t Make You A Sinner- Cleric

A Christian cleric, Pastor Abel Damina, who is the founder of Abel Damina Ministries and Power City International, has submitted that the submission that Adam and Eve’s sin in the Garden of Eden was caused because they ate the forbidden fruit does not hold water.
Team@orientactualmags.com learned that Pastor Damina said this in his New Year’s Eve sermon on Tuesday.
‘Adam and Eve ate nothing. Adam and Eve didn’t eat anything. Were you there? You were not there. So, how do we know whether they ate something or not? Jesus was there. Was Jesus there in the Garden of Eden? Yes. Can Jesus explain to us what happened? Yes’ he said.
Making reference to Mark 7:18-21, Damina argued that it is not what a person eats or drinks that will make him or her a sinner.
‘Do you not know that if Adam and Eve ate something, they would not be sinners? It is not what people eat that makes them sinners. It is not what you eat. You cannot be a sinner by eating or drinking something.
I’ve told you that taking alcohol is not a sin. I’ve told you cigar is not a sin. If you like put it on newspaper headline, I said it.
Am I saying you should smoke? You should have sense from your father’s house to know that cigar will cut short your life.
Am I saying you should drink alcohol? You should know that if you drink alcohol, you will lie down inside a gutter. Your shirt and trousers will disappear. You should have the sense to know that.
If they (Adam and Eve) had eaten the fruit, it’ll go to their stomach. It’ll digest and they will go to toilet. They’ll be free,
There’s nothing a man eats that enters his heart. It’ll go to the digestive system and it’ll go out somehow.
It is what comes out of a man that defiles a man not what goes in. What makes you a sinner is what you’re thinking not what you’re eating’ he added-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
