In the beginning - God created the Heavens & the Earth.

The Bible is the revealed truth.  Where did this revealed truth come from?  Well God of course :) Some people say that men wrote the Bible and it had nothing to do with God, but it was Gods relationship with man that got this revealed truth into the written word.

First of all Moses wrote Genesis.  Genesis is one of the most important books of the Bible. It gives a inside view of how God wants to have a relationship with man.  He still wants to have this very same relationship with us today if we would just let him. 

God made the Garden of Eden as a perfect place on earth for man to dwell.  Eden had everything man needed.  All man had to to was stay from the Tree of Knowledge.  Do not eat from this tree or you will surely die. 

Lets look at what happened. The serpent came and tempted Eve and Eve ate from the tree.  She then went to Adam and told him what she had done.  Adam then ate from the tree himself.

Do you think Eve knew about the law that God had given them? (Not to eat from the tree of knowledge)
Why do you think Adam ate from the tree of knowledge if he knew it was wrong?

Tomorrow we will look into the answers to these questions.
