Everything was perfect.
They walked with God every afternoon in the breezy time of the day.
But the deception of the devil was,
First of all, he starts talking to Eve and he goes, did God really say you cannot eat of any fruit in the garden?
So he twists what God said.
She goes, no, he didn't say any.
He said just that fruit.
And then the serpent goes, oh no, surely you will not die.
Your eyes will be opened.
You will be like God.
So now Eve, for the first time, and she's completely happy up to this point.
She has no wants in her life.
She thinks now suddenly God's holding out on her, that there's something that's gonna make her more happy if she gets it.
And he tricks her.
And the serpent gets her to eat it.
And she gives some to Adam.
He eats it.
And then their eyes are open.
They realize they've committed the worst possible sin they could do.
And it drags all of us down.
