[The Glory Unveiled]
When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. [ Genesis 3:6 NIV ]
Our emphasis on the scripture above is the B portion of the text: “she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate it.” Eve did not disobey a direct command from God; she disobeyed a command given to her through Adam. However, Adam, with open eyes, disobeyed a direct command from God. He was there when the serpent deceived Eve but remained silent because he himself had similar desires as Eve. Apostle Arome Osayi remarked, “intentional sinning is the reason crowns fall off people’s heads.” Adam’s crown, and by extension, the crown of all humanity, fell off our heads because Adam sinned intentionally. He was not unaware of the consequences of his actions, as God had forewarned him about the outcome of disobeying the command not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Even though Eve was moved to eat the fruit by what she saw, Adam was motivated by a desire for what could be outside of his immediate experience. He wanted to experience more than what was adequate for his walk with God. The prodigal son also desired more than he was ready for and returned years later wretched and beaten. Are you beginning to see what God does not approve of as having a possibility of good? If yes, sin is at your doorstep. Adam and Eve, King Saul, Samson, Judas Iscariot, Ananias, and Sapphire, among others, serve as a vivid description of the end of such lives. Every instruction from God is for our safety and protection. Hold unto them.

Please help me with this questions:
1. If Almighty Adams crown taken out of disobedience and committed sin, now that Christ came to restore that crown to them that believe by removing that sin, what then can take away the crown again?
2. Which sin is removed and which one is left to become intentional?
1. One certain thing that takes away the crown back is choosing not to have your crown back. In other words, choosing not to accept the Lord as Savior and Lord.
First of all, the provision Jesus made for humanity is not automatic as the transgression of Adam was. We need to choose Jesus as Adam amd Eve chose to sin.
2. The sin that was removed is the sin of disobeying a direct command of God also known as the Adamic sin.
The intentional sins would be acts of the flesh. Sins we commit because we allow the laws of the flesh to operate against us without resisting them with the influence of the Holy Spirit
