"If God made man sinless and perfect than what God made creation corrupted him?"

I thought I gave a pretty comprehensive answer to this question in the post to which you are responding. Please read it one more time.

Adam was given free will, and he was given it out of necessity. If Man were to exhibit love, worship, and obedience to His creator, the only way it would have any meaning whatsoever would be if he had a valid choice to do otherwise. That is not a difficult concept to understand.

Adam used his freedom of choice and made the wrong decision, opting to disobey God. Instead of displaying love, worship, and obedience (as God intended), he chose to display a lack of love, disrespect, and disobedience. That is sin and it is rebellion of the creature against his Creator. Adam (and Eve) paid the price for their sin, just as God had told them it would.



"If Adam was perfect than why did he sin? Why did God give him the ability to sin if God knew he WOULD sin given said capability? If God created man and man created sin than God created a sinning man who either wasnt perfect or God made him perfect to be sinful."

Again, I gave a comprehensive answer to your question in the post to which you are responding. Please read it again. I also answered much of it above -- please refer to that answer.

"Created" is not a very good word when applied to the origination of sin through man. Sin was the result of Adam and Eve using the free will God gave them, but making the wrong choice. It is the lie of Satan that Adam and Eve had no choice in the matter. Scripture is very clear that God did not create "a sinning man". He created a sinless man, but one who had the capacity (free will) to choose to sin. He also had the capacity (free will) to choose not to sin, the choice was Adam and Eve's to make. They made the wrong choice, but they did have the capacity to choose otherwise.



"Either way, God gave man the capability to sin when he created him. Therefor, sin is a manifestation of God."

For all the reasons above, sin is absolutely NOT a "manifestation of God". Again, God in no way created Sin. He gave Adam and Eve both the capacity to sin, but He also gave them the capacity to not sin. The choice was theirs, and in no way whatsoever did God encourage them to choose to sin. The same, by the way, is true of Satan and all the other angels. Some chose to follow Satan in His rebellion against God, but twice as many chose to obey and follow God.

Hope that helps.
