Q&A: What Really Happened in the Garden of Eden

“Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love.”
1 John 4:18 NLT

Perfect love expels fear. I am so sorry to say this but, you CANNOT love . What?😡 But I'm a Christian!  This is because once you become a Christian, your former self is destroyed, and you become a new man. The Holy Spirit now uses you to perform as Him. Wherever people go, they don't see you. This mortal body was just given to you so that you could be visible on earth. A real Christian is actually seated at the right hand of God with power. Wherever you go, people see Jesus. 
So, what really happened in the Garden of Eden? 
We all know the story of Adam and Eve. How Eve was tempted to eat the forbidden fruit by a serpent and eventually tempted Adam to do it as well. When Satan said they could define good and evil by themselves, he knew it was impossible. In the beginning, God gave us the power of rule the earth with God's guidance. And everything was fine. But Adam and Eve were deceived into thinking the could run the world on their own terms. But instead it lead to violence and corruptness. But then God decided that this power to rule with his guidance should be restored. So God sent his only Son, and decided that Satan's most powerful weapon, death, should be used fully on Him. But it wasn't more powerful than the love and goodness of God. So, 3 days later, Jesus rose from the dead, and we can now choose:

Direct my footsteps according to your Word; let no sin rule over me. Psalm 119:133  |  NIV   We need to let God's Word rule our lives, directing our footsteps on our journey through life.

"That according to the riches of His glory, He may grant you to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith..." - Ephesians 3:16-17 KJV Okay. I wanted to talk a little bit more on faith. When Paul writes 'dwell in your hearts through faith' what does it mean? This means that we have to show our confidence and belief in Christ, before He comes into our hearts. He knows when we want to trick Him or not. So don't bother being cunning! Because wisdom comes from the Lord! So, if our human efforts cannot make faith to work, what can? (Zechariah 4:6) Our confidence and belief in Jesus! We just have to say, "Jesus, take care of this for me. I don't want to any more. I can't do it by my own power." Acknowledging that you can't do it alone, gives you the first step forward. Then comes the hard bit. When I mean hard, I mean HARD. Because most people people fall away aft...

Before you ask this question you must ask yourself, am I pure? Have I sinned by mistake and need forgiveness? Or are my thoughts starting to make my light darken? Ask yourself these questions and their surely will be an answer.  But why must I ask myself these questions?  " So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart" - 2 Timothy 2:22    If we are not thinking good thoughts or have sinned by mistake or not, we have sta...
