And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. Gen 1:31a It is not a new thing in the world today to hear someone saying “there is no God” or “He doesn’t care”. Many have blamed the evil in the world today as God’s doing. Some have used it as an excuse that he doesn’t care about his creation. We have forgotten that we are the one who brought this evil on ourselves. “But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die”. Gen 2:17. Our disobedience and pride has brought our fall and death. This could be seen in the life of Adam and Eve. Their disobedience to God’s commandment brought evil upon them. God’s plan for them was good but they chose to disobey him and they lost their possession. “And God saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually”. Gen 6:5. Many people in the world today have chosen to disobey God by eating the forbidden fruit, that is, sin. We have chosen to live our life without our creator and this in turn has poured out evil into our world today. If Adam and eve had not eaten the forbidden fruit, they wouldn’t have been chased out of the Garden of Eden and cursed. If you and I had not sinned we wouldn’t have received any punishment for our sins. As you can see, we humans are the architect of what we call evil today. And only you and I can end it if we decide to obey God and run away from sin. God’s love for us is pure and his intentions for us are not evil.

slivertongue:the devil chose to be evil just like me and you choose to sin. and hell is the punishment awaiting those who sin. the tree was to test Adam and Eve if they will obey God and they failed. |
