Q. 15. What was the sin whereby our first parents fell from the estate wherein they were created? Grace,Doug

A. The sin whereby our first parents fell from the estate wherein they were created, was their eating the forbidden fruit.[39][39] Genesis 3:6. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.Grace,Doug

1JN2:16 in a nut shell(the word lust here---I believe means strong desire or desire on desire).
