We are only in the third chapter of the book and life has truly made some remarkable twists:
The serpent spoke to Eve and beguiled her into believing that the tree of life was not truly dangerous to eat from but was desirable. He cunningly told her that this fruit would make her like a god and that the fruit was pleasing to the eye and delicious to eat. She ate, and presented Adam with fruit too and their eyes were opened to their nakedness and they became ashamed so they fashioned clothes for themselves. When they heard God walking in the garden they hid to cover themselves from His view. God knew immediately when they spoke of their shame in being unclothed. Had it not been for them having partaken of the fruit of this tree they would have had no knowledge of good and evil and never felt shame for their state of dress. Life forever changed for them and for us that day.
This chapter, just like the previous two was packed with action. I am only covering a small portion. Read it yourself and find out! :-) Thanks so much for visiting me today. Take care and God bless!
