About Eve

Have you ever been scammed? Or maybe tricked into doing something you might not really want to do? Or maybe, like Eve you were tricked into doing something that you were told not to do.

So begins the story of Eve in those gone days in the Garden of Eve.

Do you think that she might have given any thought to the enemy when he tempted her with the fruit that God said she could not have. Did she stop and think about the consequences for a minute? 

Or did she just jump right in there, not caring about what God had told her?

Should we feel sorry for her since she was new on this earth. She had not much experience in life? 

Or should we have negative feelings about her for doing that and taking away man's right to live a wonderful carefree life just like she and Adam were doing.

After all, for all of us as women, we have or will have to endure the pain of childbirth. In our minds, can we imagine her right here with us and have the right to blame her for our sin, just as Adam had done?

I suppose we could do that. But why? Why, when our sins are covered by the shed blood of Jesus, would we? We are no less guilty then when Eve chose to ignore God's warning. 

After all, when God created them, they were adults. They had everything they needed to understand and communicate with Him. Including, a brain to think with. They were without excuse.

Eve had been created in God's own image, just as Adam had been. And to stay she was too weak to say no to the enemy would gravely undo just how strong she was. After all, she brought for babies, and raised them. After her sin, she was thrown out of the garden, just as Adam was and made to work to survive. 

No, Eve was no slouch. At least in my opinion anyway. She was just like us. Hard working people that love God and want to follow Him. But at times we get discouraged, unhappy, bored, and maybe wanting things that God says no to us, as well. And just like Eve.....

...we sin. And at times we want to cast the blame for our sin, on to someone else.

But since there was no blood atonement for their sin yet, we wonder. Did Adam and Eve go to heaven or hell when they died?

Well, that is a good question which I will try to find an answer for on my next blog which I hope to have here on 4/24. Thank you for your patience with me during this past few days and also thanks for coming by today.  May God bless you!

Praise Jesus!
