The fall of man into sin

Today we are talking about Genesis 3:1 to 24.
In the world created by God, Adam and Eve lived in the Garden of Eden with everything shining and fullness. They didn’t need to get anything or take advice from anyone else. For God was their all. But they displeased their Creator by listening to a strange voice.
The devil approached Adam and Eve as a deceiver.
The devil wanted to destroy the beauty that God had created in the world. So Satan came disguised as a snake. Since the devil knew about God’s commandment to man, the devil was effective in ensnaring man.
Satan came to Eve disguised as a serpent
The beginning of Eve’s fall was listening to Satan. The result of listening was that a discussion started between her and Satan. The last step of the discussion was that the devil changed the word of God. That’s what the devil always does. The devil changes God’s word and approaches us. He tries to draw us into sin by showing that God is a liar. We must not listen to Satan. We must know exactly what God says.
Even today, Satan is spreading various kinds of false teachings in man, some of them are:
There really is no hell.
God’s love does not count sin.
There is nothing wrong with committing a minor sin
Can God’s word be trusted?
These are the various lies that Satan tries to make in man. Many people are fooled by this. To beware of these, we must know God’s Word exactly.
Eve obeyed the devil and that is the beginning of the fall of the world created by God into sin.
Satan changed God’s word and told Eve to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Satan told Eve that if she took the fruit and ate it, she would be equal to God. So she thought to be equal with God and ate its fruits. She also gave the same fruit to her husband. From this we can see that we always obey the devil and make others around us also obey the devil. Thus the first couple disobeyed the command of God. This is spiritual death. It is the nature of man today.
God created a separation between the original couple.
Shame and fear arose between Adam and Eve, so they hid among the trees. When we disobey God, we lose the courage to come before Him. Today, people hide behind many things to cover their sins.
Adam and Eve made clothes from fig leaves.
God prepared a veil for them. Man’s sin can only be covered by God’s plan.
Sin came into the world because of Adam and Eve’s disobedience.
Fellowship with God was lost.
The cure was lost.
Sadness and sadness prevailed
Death was inherited
Eating from the tree of life was forbidden.
A slave to the devil
In this way, man displeased his creator, the one who loved him, and instead of a blessed life, he came to helplessness with sorrow and grief. This is the nature of human nature today. When we do something different from what God’s Word says, we lose our blessing.
