If the All Powerful God is the alpha and omega plus gave us free will then
did God know before hand that Adam & Eve would eat the apple before even giving life to humans?
The answer to the question you're asking is yes. It seems what you're really asking though is, why would God create us knowing that we would fall? The answer to THAT question is because he loves us, and our return of his love has to be a choice. Forced love is no love at all. He wanted us to exist even though he knew we would disobey him.
Yes, it is all part of His master plan, only partly understandable to us in this lifetime.
First off: No human has "Free Will". To have this power one would only have to think something to move and it would move. Only God has this power.
As for your question about Adam and Eve. Yes God already knew the result of His test, but hoped it might change. After all God is all knowing. If He weren't He wouldn't be God.
If the story of Adam and Eve is true, God stacked the deck and set us up to fail from the start.
I believe He did. I believe he had in mind the whole time that Jesus would be sacrificed as the perfect lamb of God to cover the many sins of the flesh. He created us so he knew our weaknesses before we did. I don't for one second believe that God created this world and mankind and then just played it by ear. Too many prophecies in the OT point to Jesus and the coming of the Saviour. When he toldl Abraham to sacrifice his only son Isaac on the alter and Abraham was prepared to obey Him, God provided a ram for that blood sacrifice instead. There are many more indications in the OT as well but that, to me, is the most vivid right now.

How did GOD became? He said, "I am the Alpha and Omega" but how?A question I have wanted to ask since forever yet hadn't been satisfied with the answer given. As an adult, I feel like I shouldn't need logic regarding my belief. Isn't faith believing without seeing? Yet, I know there is an...

if Jesus has no end and beginning why did He claim to be alpha and omega, beginning and end

What does the Alpha and the Omega mean?I believe it refers to the concept that all things in our universe come in pairs, opposites, all things that is except God. Another way of saying that is God's opposite is nothing, nothing at all.

Christians, Why do you give your problems to God if God Gave Them To You?Everyone says that God does not give you more than you can handle. So then if you think that you cannot handle it, you give that opportunity to learn back to God? What does that say to the God that You are refusing?

If God is Almighty, Omnipotent, All knowing etc.etc, why he do not stop the bad things his children are doing (especially in his name) and the bad things happening with his children?

So GOD tells Adam and Eve to eat from whatever tree they want to except the one in the middle cause it is the tree of good and bad...So then the Serpent comes along and convinces Eve that it is ok to eat it and that God is lying, so she eats and then Adams eats it.God says that if you eat the from...
