I am not a preacher, I am maybe just another guy next door who thinks differently for good.

Some mysteries about THE FIRST TEMPTATION in the Bible have been poking me seriously to do some justices to. I think if these knowledge remain with me of what benefit would they be really?
So, I am going do some justices to some deep happenings we all perhaps have been missing right from the first day we all got exposed the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden in the Holy Bible as they help teach us on how to remain faithful for the promises of God to be besides the necessity of God's mercy.

The first thing I would want us to try and remember about the story is that everything was so beautiful for both of them in the first place. They were promised to multiply, fill the earth, name the creatures, be the mother of all creatures and all that. In between lies the second thing to note, there was one rule to abide by given by God Himself: that tree at the middle of the garden, its fruit you should not eat lest you die. The third to note is the end of all the funs provided them because something happened to the rule.

There are the funs or beauties, there is the one rule to help them manage the funs and there is the end to the funs because the serpent tempt them and becomes successful.
Three things are involved accordingly.

The plot of the story right from the beginning to the middle I think would be clear enough (though they still bear their own mysteries; that is the call for another time). But there is some thing there in the last phase which leads to the expulsion of the first human relationship on the face of the earth (as documented by the Holy Bible).
Eve is being used by the devil to achieve his ploy. The devil chooses the right vessel, I bet he does. Guess what could have happened if it were Adam who was in Eve's shoes at that moment of the test. He probably would have used a stick to throw the snake to one side or even kill it for lunch.

Although, not to confuse my intention, let's not look at it that way for now, let's look at it from this angle that, what if Eve would try (and not be selfish) to take the first bite and not even touch the apple at all by calling out on Adam to let him know what is going on and then decide together. If Eve would not remember the one rule, I am certain the husband would. Both could not have forgotten such one crucial rule at the same time with such a test.

Possibly if it was like so, things would not be this way:
Death would not have been humankind's portion, God would not have had to chase them out and hid the garden within the face of the earth, snakes would have been another animal we domesticate such as goat without fears and all that.

THE LESSON we, just going into serious relationship, already in serious relationship and those who are in any form partnership should learn from this is that, if Eve could have waited to hear out the mind of Adam, things might be the other case, or if Adam could have always find a way to be with his wife at all crucial times, things would not have been like this or if God would have chosen in His will to appear at that moment she was about taking the bite, things would have been different now.

But about the last thing considered, God might not necessarily set a game and come in to play it Himself. That is why He gave us free will. He made us free moral agents. If He appeared at that point she was about taking the bite, Eve could yell at God for meddling into everything, meaning there is no freedom which He claims to have given them, thus, God stands back watching. In spite, Adam still finds a way around to blame God. Thus, the curses.

There are some things God will definitely pull Himself out of practically but literally watching us in silence, gazing at us at what we would do with the freedom He has given us. Always remember that as an individual.

Moreover, as a family, entities in relationship or partnership, always remember, a moment you both are not together in thought, in agreement, in unison or in one understanding could be the beginning of the end of every of your generation to come if at all one would come next. So, let's let one think of the other always before deciding, for goodness sake.

There's one more thing I have got to share. Will do that tomorrow God willing. Shalom!

Great post! I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

This post made me realize I need to work a little more on my own posts. Good Job!
