What Happened In The Garden Of Eden PDF Download

ADAM AND EVE IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN: A BIBLE-BASED STUDY CONCERNING FREE WILL, HUMAN NATURE, AND THE FALL OF MAN presents an extremely insightful and long overdue look into what really happened in the Garden of Eden. Using the BIBLE as its irrefutable source, this book digs deeply into what the BIBLE actually tells us about the events that occurred there. Every school child knows the story of Adam and Eve, the fruit, the temptation of the serpent, and the expulsion from the Garden of Eden. The story of what happened in that paradise is often presented as a fairy tale, an ancient parable, or a story not relevant to the rest of the BIBLE. But such misreadings are a mistake, for what happened in the Garden of Eden is completely relevant to everyone, and this story's underlying message is urgently needed in the world of today more than ever. By understanding the lessons learned from Adam and Eve's time with God in the Garden of Eden, we can gain clear insights into the nature of free will, the essence of what it means to be a human being, why our world is in its current state, why paradise was lost, and, perhaps most importantly, how paradise can be regained. The deeper lessons from the Garden are rarely discussed or even explored - and these lessons seem to have been forgotten by most people in the modern age, for it does not seem to be understood that woven into this ancient world narrative are golden strands of wisdom that thread themselves into a map that can lead us to eternal treasures of spiritual wisdom, and, ultimately, on a path back to a life - and a world - that is truly the paradise that God intended us to have. Here at last is a book that answers the most difficult questions about this story: Why, exactly, did God create Adam and Eve? What beings existed before humans? How do we know the serpent was the Devil? What methods of deception did the Devil use to trick Adam and Eve? Who are the people who were living in Nod when Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden? Who is to blame for the Fall of Man: Adam, Eve, or the Devil? Since humans are not perfect, did God make a mistake when He made humans? Since the Devil is evil, did God make a mistake when He created the Devil? Why is there so much evil in world? What, exactly, is free will? Where is the Garden of Eden? Does the Garden still exist? Why is this story relevant today? Here at last is a book that provides crystal-clear, definitive answers to each of these perplexing questions. The answers to many of these questions will surprise you, inspire you, and remove any doubts you have ever harbored concerning God's plans for this world and for you. In this book's discussions you will find your faith in God and His plan raised to new levels as each of these issues - and so much more - is addressed definitively by finding the answers that are based on the BIBLE and that are found in the BIBLE - for this book is BIBLE-based, meaning that the BIBLE is the source for the information discussed here. Only by sticking to the BIBLE and adhering to a close reading of its actual words can we be certain to attain clarity in our discussion of what is actually said in the BIBLE itself. It is the sincere purpose of this book to take a deep look at what really happened in the Garden of Eden and what it means for us today. As you read this book, the BIBLE is quoted directly, and the excerpts under discussion are reprinted in bold (not in hard-to-read italics or red text or in microscopic footnotes) for your convenience so you do not have to close this book and go searching through your BIBLE to find the lines as they are referenced, nor do you have to flip around to other pages in this book to locate passages. This book focuses on Chapters 2 and 3 of Genesis, and these chapters are printed in their entirety within the in-depth, line-by-line discussion of the text itself, a discussion that will transform your life for the better forever.
