They were innocent as a new born they didn’t know what sin was. The difference between sin (open rebellion against God) Rev 12:7-9 and transgression (an error) is like a person who has come to a knowledge of God been baptized and knowing it is wrong then kills another human, a transgression or error, is when one has no knowledge of right and wrong and as the case with Adam and Eve. Do we any of us call an innocent child a sinner and most importantly would God. Adam and Eve are innocent our first parents who went on to repent of their error even as we who confess to love God do. Because of the Fall, we are blessed with physical bodies, the right to choose between good and evil, and the opportunity to gain eternal life. None of these privileges would have been ours had Adam and Eve remained in the garden. God’s plan was to leave the garden and be tested as we are tested

After the Fall, Eve said, “Were it not for our transgression we never should have had seed [children], and never should have known good and evil, and the joy of our redemption, and the eternal life which God giveth unto all the obedient” (Moses 5:11)
