Eden to Eternity

Our Lord created Adam and Eve to enjoy this world. We can’t fully understand why God allowed Satan in Eden. However, God put man in The Garden with the ability to make decisions. God reproached Adam and Eve after the temptation by banishing them from Eden. They and their descendants were forced to live lives of hardship. That’s you and me. Our God is a forgiving God. Jesus had to come to earth to die for mankind’s sin (Genesis 3:15). In that way, we could be reconciled to God and gain entrance into heaven. Regardless of our age, we are born into the old creation. We need to be renewed every day. “The mind set on the flesh is death, the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace” (Romans 8:6).
