FBR Episode 30 - Longing For Eden: The Key to Desire

from The Faith By Reason Podcast · host Ed Mabrie

Longing for Eden is at the core of all of our desires. In Eden, mankind had perfect government, perfect fellowship, and perfect provision. Humanity was made for the perfection of Eden and nothing short of that perfection will ever satisfy us. But since we are subject to the pride of our fallen state, all of us, religious AND atheist, seek to recreate that perfection WITHOUT God. Our efforts and failure to do so is the story of our tragic human history. Only by turning to God can we truly reclaim our deepest longing. In this week’s podcast:What we lost when we fell from EdenHow we try to replace paradiseWhy we desire to regain Eden without GodHow the judgment and curses of Original Sin are loving and mercifulWhy natural disasters CANNOT be blamed on God  For exclusive content, Q&A Videos, and private Bible study, become a Faith By Reason Patreon www.patreon.com/faithbyreason
