Notes

One of Adam's first conversations with his delightful new companion must have been about the rules of the garden. Before God made Eve, he had already given Adam complete freedom in the garden, with the responsibility to tend and care for it. But one tree was off-limits, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Adam would have told Eve all about this. She knew, when Satan approached her, that the tree's ruit was not to be eaten However, she decided to eat the forbidden fruit. Than she offered some to Adam. At that moment, the fate of creation was on the line Sadly Adam didn't pause to consider the consequences. He went ahead and ate In that moment of small rebellion something la cle, brautiful, was shattered God's perfect creation. Adam separated from God by his desire to act on his own The effect on glass window same a a at it the thousands of fragments can never be regathered the case rebellion The entire Bible is the story of how that in motion to overcome the plan unfolds, ultimately effects of the of dam's in, however, God already had a plan leading to God's own visit to earth through his Son, Jesus. His sinless life and death made it possible for God to offer forgiveness to all who want it Our small and large acts of rebellion prove that we are descendants of Adam Only by asking forgiveness of Jesus Christ can we become children of God
