It was all a big conspiracy from the start. Maybe it was meant to be consumed when the time was right,men were impatient,maybe it was our only source of reproduction,maybe there was no such thing as forbidden fruit afterall. All depends on which side of the fence you are on. |

booqee: God wanted man to choose life, that is why he put the two trees (1. tree of life, and 2. tree of knowledge of evil and good- death). If your father put dustbin on the left and put jollof rice on the right, are you not expected to pick the jollof rice, but man heeded to the deceptive voice of the serpent so that we will not live perpetually in the garden. By that singular act, our nature was corrupted, and man was chased out of the garden, giving the devil the princely authority over the earth. It took the cross and the blood of Jesus to restore all that believe, and to have authority and dominion over sin and the power of hell... I hope this gives a background of understanding... 1 Like |

The reason God created the tree of good and evil is that God created man to be a FREE MORAL AGENT. In other words, God has ALWAYS set before man the freedom to choose who he wants to serve or follow whether life or death, good or evil. This is what makes us HUMAN and not lower animals who live by instinct or robots programmed to do only the creator's wishes. Even angels were given the free choice to choose between following God or not which gave Lucifer the right to choose to obey God or follow his own desires. So even though God knows what choices His creatures will make, He always gives us our liberty to choose and prescribes penalties if we don't. |

when information are passed down to generations, so many vital points are diluted and hence the whole picture is tampered with and hence becomes confusing. that is why we should live by faith and not by sight because the world is filled with dark clouds and pollutions(spiritually and otherwise). Asking too many questions is as a result of the effect from the fruit Adam and Eve ate and passed down to all generations. when you don't get answers, you turn to paganism and when you get confusing answers, you become a complete sinner. but the search for answers shouldn't be our focus. our focus should be on the word of God. trust the Creator. Lastly, God will never come down to every generation to explain the beginning but I bet you, that on the last day, we shall get all our answers from Him. and if there is no last day... then I will still be glad I believed in God and allowed him shape my life to be better. I LOVE YOU GOD. I ALWAYS WILL. THANK YOU FOR YOUR MERCIES AND BLESSINGS AND PATIENCE. 5 Likes |

You see this is a topic, that bible scholars,philisophers ,scientist and many learned pple have been arguing for years now. Simply put, what your question bores down to is : IS LIFE DEPENDENT ON FREEWILL OR DESTINY....see God destined man to know Good & Live forever but same time he gave him freewill. And because adam&eve's freewill wasn't in line with God's plan, his destiny was distorted. Man now "dies" and "knows sin".....even in the bible it was recorded that at a point when God saw the wickedness in mans heart, he REGRETTED creating man. Now does this means God didn't see that. man in the future would be so callous before creating us? No! God created man and had a Gooood plan for us but at the point when he was disappointed with mans FREEWILL action that it was pointed out in the bible. Both freewill & destiny work together 1 Like

lekkie073: Of all the things in the world to ask God, why would i want to ask a question that has obvious answers. I know why some people are poor and some are rich. And there is no statistical data showing "evil" people (whatever that means) live longer that good people. What i would like to ask is, why place a damning tree in close proximity of "children". 1 Like |

analice107:I love ur illustration, really detailed, lemme just add this to it. aside from God wanting obedience, he created them a free will agent, so God gave dem d opportunity to choose, 'I lay before thee life and death, good and evil, blessings and curses'. God created man, but he wanted man to decide his own destiny, to choose who he will obey. God still do that today, he doesn't force his will enough, He wants us to love Him enough to Choose him though we have options. |
