No, but God often takes advantage of the sin He knows is coming.
(Why can’t an atheist that read the Bible answer this?) -

Those God wants saved, are saved. God does not try and fail. (Romans 9) -

Everyone born into this world sins. Only one that did not was Christ who did not need to be saved.
if God wants everyone to be saved by Christ , then by logic, God wants everyone to sin. -
Why can't you answer this one for yourself.
Oh, yes God loves it when we sin.
It's because He wants to remember why He sent His Son to die in our place.
Praise and glory to our God. -

[James 1:13-18 NASB] 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am being tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone. 14 But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. 15 Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death. 16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. 17 Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow. 18 In the exercise of His will He brought us forth by the word of truth, so that we would be a kind of first fruits among His creatures. -

Partially absurd questions deserve partially absurd answers...
Questions that are designed as traps. -
Although I admitted in my response that the answer is more complex than a simple "yes" or "no" because what God WANTS is a complex issue ... our good and His Glory. Achieving what God wants involves the crucifixion of an innocent man by a rebellious creation to redeem from them a people that God loves more than His own life. -

Did God prevent Adam and Eve from disobeying His command? No.
Could God have prevented Adam and Eve from eating the fruit? Yes.
Can fallen men live a sinless life? No.
Could God have created people capable of living a sinless life? Unanswerable: requires omniscience. -
Could God have created people capable of living a sinless life? Absolutely. Sinless does not equate to divine. Jesus even points this out in a parable where even if you are sinless you have not earned thanks from God. LUKE 17
