A review of Chapter: "The Fall"
The authors claim,
Contrary to the LDS concept of the fall, the Bible shows that this event was the result of disobeying God. [1]
This claim, however, directly contradicts Alma 42꞉12:
And now, there was no means to reclaim men from this fallen state, which man had brought upon himself because of his own disobedience.
