Do you believe the Holy Spirit inspired the authors of the Books listed below. The Holy Spirit is part of the Godhead in case you didn't know. Because He is God, He would have to be inspiring foolish errors if what you say were true.

BEWARE, unleashing the Lion of the Tribe of Judah can be harmful to your worldview! (Red letters indicate words spoken by Jesus)

Rom 6:9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.

Rom 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

Rom 5:14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses,...

Rom 5:21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin [is] death; but the gift of God [is] eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

1Cr 15:54-55
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where [is] thy sting? O grave, where [is] thy victory?

Mar 10:6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.

Isa 45:12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, [even] my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.

Zec 12:1 The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.

Isa 42:5 Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:

Isa 45:18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I [am] the LORD; and [there is] none else.

Isa 40:21-22
Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth?

Isa 64:4 For since the beginning of the world [men] have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, [what] he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.

Gen 2:7 And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

Gen 5:1 This [is] the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;

Deu 4:32 For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth,

Gen 5:5 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.

New Testament references to Adam.

Luk 3:38 Which was [the son] of Enos, which was [the son] of Seth, which was [the son] of Adam, which was [the son] of God.

1Cr 15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul;

Jud 1:14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,

1Ti 2:13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

Col 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

St. Paul was talking about human spiritual death in Romans 5. If he was saying physical death was impossible before the Fall, what was the purpose of the tree of life?

I don't see how any of the other quotations you cite contradict evolution.

And do you believe that green plants and animals came first, before God made man.
Or do you think that God made Adam from the clay, before he made the green plants and animals.

The Bible is full of contradictions.
That doesn't mean it wasn't inspired by God.
It does mean that it is not a statute book that you can read according to you own lights and be certain of.

Are works necessary to faith?
Paul says no.
James says yes.
Which is it?
Is God confused?

Or is the truth that the books of the Bible were written by men, inspired by God, yes, but writing according to their own understanding of the inspiration?
That is actually the case, that is why the Bible conflicts in its different parts.
And that is why God took care, when he walked the earth, to not leave a Bible Dispensary nor one written word for posterity. He left a Church, not a Bible.

He inspired the Bible, but he left a Church.
The Bible COULD mean a lot of things.
It DOES mean what God thinks it means.
And God left a Church to tell us what he thinks, into which He invested the Holy Spirit to guide us infallibly.
The Bible interpreted without the wisdom of the Holy Spirit in the Church can lead men far astray, because the Devil can quote Scripture to serve his purposes.
