God hated Esau for selling his birthright for a bowl of stew. It's the only verse in the Bible that says "God hated."
Then Esau wanted it back, and chased Jacob all over & around to get it back. What Rachel started and Jacob went along with, was not condemned by God. The birthright meant NOTHING to Esau. He just wanted the blessing. He didn't repent and ask God to forgive him. He was bitter.
If you follow Esaus' life, you'll see he was rejected by God.
God throws our sins as far as the East is from the west. Which is an infinite line.
I put 2 little stars by it to indicate I was commenting on that verse.
Also I thought by your post, there was some sort of doubt.
If you are offended I am sorry about that.
There was no need to accuse me of false teaching. I forgive you.
It is of the heart with repentance firstly. Nicene Creed applies. Apostles' Creed applies. The Sinners' Prayer applies. (All are born separated from God because of Adam's sin and need atonement At One Ment with God through Jesus Christ. We still do sin after sealed with The Holy Spirit. Therefore, confessing sins still applies and repentance of sins after being in Christ applies. Mortal sins are in need of rededication by doing the same Prayer of faith and grace of asking Jesus Christ into your heart and soul. None of this matters if it is not all done with one's heart.)
Salvation belongs to The Lord. It is a miracle when one gets sealed with The Holy Spirit. God makes that manifest.
John 5:14 "Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee." Jesus says here "Sin no more"
John 8:11 "She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more." And again here, "Sin no more". There's no room for big or little sin in sin no more.
So if Jesus told both man and woman to sin no more, how much sin can you and I do after salvation? NONE.
Jesus is bigger and more powerful than the sinning Christian experience, the get saved every night at your bedside experience, or the once saved always saved experience.
Here is what Jeremiah records that God said on false ministry:
Jeremiah 23:21, 22
"I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.
But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings."
Any preacher that teaches you cannot be saved from is a liar and God did not send him or her. If the preacher teaches of a god that is too weak to save you from sin, they are teaching about a false god.
So again I'll ask what I did earlier that has yet to be answered; If you could stop sinning, would you? If you say no, then you told on yourself that you'd rather sin. If you say yes, then why haven't you stopped the sin business? If you are going to spend an eternity with God in His Heaven, you stop the sin now. If you excuse sin, it tells us you aren't right in your heart.
For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
We each have to lay down, layer upon layer, of Knowledge. It involves turning the tv off and reading through Books (plural) of the Bible. What's your real life appetite for food?
television, media, Twitter are Junk Food.

Psalms Chapter 103
10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
**12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions (sins) from us.
13 Like as a father pitieth [his] children, [so] the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
DEMONS are invisible. They gain illegal access to humans, who give that illegal access. But demons are invisible body cannot produce (can I say it?) fluids.
Unless you are discussing spiritual warfare ?? Why are you focusing on this? I'm curious.
My Pastor said that not only the fallen angels procreated with the daughters of Adam, but that the result of the act between Satan and Eve was Cain. This seems to make sense to me because God then separates the seed of Satan from the seed of Eve and pronounces issues with birth for Eve and all women after that. Why else would God talk about these things. And when God went to talk to Adam and Eve after they sinned, they wrapped fig leaves around their loins, not their mouth if they ate an apple. It seems to all fit.
I've never heard the breaking of the law explained that way before, however, we know that Adam was never under the Law so not sure if I could see him or his generation being involved with breaking the Law... We learn from Paul that Adam's death penalty that he received for his transgression, reigned until the time of Moses, then God gave Moses the Law of Sin and Death, to give to the Israelites and the strangers that chose to live with them... That Law reigns until the time of Jesus's death on the cross...The cross made it possible to free anyone that believes that Law applies to them to be freed from it and to be able to live their lives alive In Christ, free from the Law of Sin and Death...
If you are simply meaning the breaking of the first set of stone tablets versus the 2nd set of stone tablets, I still see it that Moses broke the first set because he was angry that the Israelites had built and were worshiping the golden calf they had made as their false god...
Then Joshua went back up on the mountain with Moses and the 2nd set of tablets was made... It would appear that even though the Israelites were a stiff necked bunch that they were not worshiping a false god when Moses and Joshua returned the 2nd time....
I'm not able to connect Adam with the Law because the Law came after his death and he was never party with God to the Law...God told Adam the day that he eats from the Tree of the knowledge of good and evil, he will surely die...
Most folks believe that death penalty meant physical death, but we know that cannot be true because Adam went on to physically live for about 700 years... The death penalty Adam received was needing to be reconciled back to God, I call that spiritual death instead of physical death... Spiritual death simply means, anyone that believes they and all others are sinners is spiritually dead and that person needs to be reconciled to God via gaining an understanding of the purpose of the cross...
Have a great day...
They had no bodies any longer. That's when they became invisible. Ephesians 6.
They could get into unprotected, unrighteous humans; but they cannot procreate anymore.
Evil human beings can let their bodies be possessed by demons: as in witches.
Born again people can be Oppressed, but NOT possessed. The need prayer of agreement to be relieved.
Satan attacks Jesus after fasting from food 40 days. He tempted with food.
We all need to rein in our appetites. Even me. When the flesh screams starvation.. I just tell it to get thee behind me satan; in the Name of Jesus. Drink some water.
The Bible says that after the 40 days, Jesus was hungry (not thirsty). He drank water.
Fasting makes the body attack the built up glue that is in the G.I. Tract. It eats it off.
That's easy. Fasting from entertainment and media toys is much harder!
Declare your fast. Let the Lord know you're fasting from food, to feast on Gods Word.
A fasted la pleasing to the Lord.
