And when the woman saw that the tree
The devil is intelligent. He has been around for a pretty long time, during which he's had encounters with all kinds of people from all kinds from background. Unlike man, he is not limited by nationality, boarders or money. The passage quoted above shows how he cons his victim into believing disobeying God, implies acquiring hidden wisdom.Countering God's edict has never and will never be wise but somehow, the devil still continues to deceive throngs into believing there's some hidden power, knowledge to be had by moving contrary to God's holy edicts. How else can you explain:
1. A rapidly increasing surge in deviant behaviour and attitude all across the world amongst all peoples?
2. Massive rebellion (sometimes institutionalized) against Christianity and interestingly against the Ten Commandments!
3. A belief taught (preached) as science that things existed out of nothing by themselves also known as the theory of evolution (or better still, the religion of evolution). Life teaches us that everything that we see was created (LCD, Iphone..anything), or has an inventor. Why is it so difficult for men to figure out the fact that God created them. The same deceiver of old. Worse still it is does who reason logically that are seen as dumb, because. Here is a list of well known scientist that think evolution is crap..List 1, list 2.
4. Massisve increase in teenage and unwed pregnancies, abortion ( it's my body I do what I like with it, lie), suicides and general rebellion against established order.
There is a general unexpressed feeling that we (men) have gotten wiser! What can be further away from the truth.The only wisdom that is worth having is the wisdom that talks about God, and that's to be had in God alone and not in going contrary to His edicts. Solomon was correct in stating that the fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom. You're walking on dangerous grounds when your definition of wisdom, omits God the creator.
There's hope for you now, if you do the right thing ie turn from the foolishness of this age and the temptation to rebel against God. Turn over your heart to Jesus and experience true liberty and wisdom. the bible, God's word to His creation says;
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.)
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.
Believe in Jesus, confess His name and receive power to become a child of God.
Innowas good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof ..Genesis 3v6
