Which Location Were Adam And Eve At When the Serpent Tempted Eve?


Remember the story of how the devil was cast away from heaven right? Often a times, the name, 'devil' is usually substituted with that of the serpent.

I was going to ask how come the devil gained access into the garden of Eden which was not stated if it were in heaven or not, but then, I went back again and read through Genesis Chapter 3 allover and realized the Holy Scripture reiterated the name 'serpent' and not 'devil'.

I was also going to conclude that scripture only recorded that Adam and Ever were cast off the beautiful garden and was going to ask what happened to the serpent after it was cursed to crawl on its belly forever. I went back again and read allover again.

{Peep Genesis 3:20-23 for the detailed rundown}, God  made leather clothing for them and cast them off, now fully aware that they had gained wisdom of both good and evil.

vs 24."He threw them out of the garden and stationed angel-cherubim and a revolving sword of fire east of it, guarding the path to the tree of life.''

*Them could also mean Adam, Eve and the serpent which many always fail to add.

Well, from my findings, I discovered that three representatives exited the garden of  Eden. I figured out that their location may not have been in heaven after all.

 {Gen 2:4-9}
"This is the history of the heavens and earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens, before any plant of the field was in the earth and before any herb of the field had grown. For the Lord God had not caused it to rain on earth, and there was no man to till the ground; but a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground. And the Lord God formed man out of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.The Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put man whom he had formed. And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree that grow that is pleasant to the sight and for good food."

*Wait oo. Were Adam and Eve created on earth or in a secret location close to heaven? Was it in the initial plans of God to eventually cast them off to till the ground of the earth? hmm. It gets complicated.

Did you see what I just saw? lol. Indepth study of the Bible is ultimatum. You should try it out too.

Now I'm dumbfounded...

    Glad I can help you here. I knew from the onset that Them means:Adam,Eve and the Serpent.

    But this is what I know. God did not create a PERFECT world. He saw that it was "GOOD" was what creation story ran through each end of the day and before "Evening came and morning came the ... day".

    This means that Adam and Eve were tested the same way Job was tested. But God knew they may fall-(Yet another reason why God didn't discuss terms with the Devil as it was done for Job) for he wanted them to go through the Introduction to the Patience of Suffering 101. Confused? Let me put it this way:
    God spent 6 days (which is simply put as 24 hours times 6 days)and without food. Therefore God was exasperated though he had finished all he wanted to create. Worse still is the immediate ruin of what he has done(I was hoping it was animals that did this but it is in union of an animal -which man can control-and humans combined) easily but effortlessly destroyed.

    Should Adam and Eve overcame, this would have been a Perfect world and then Heaven would be a Good world(perhaps no need for heaven).

    This another thing that I find mind boggling: Which day did they fall- Sunday Evening or Monday Morning of the new week? For God who protects us should have truly prevented them from the serpent. But as I explained that God too can get tired and rested on the seventh day, was it because of the rest that got them into this fall or after they (Adam and Eve) had mastered themselves(of which would have taken them donkey period of years to go through all what God had created)?


    For the Location, it was certainly earth not heaven but if we shall measure it in countries: Can Eden be in Israel, or Nigeria or a country yet-to-be Discovered?

    Now it has become too Complicated!!!

    Thanks to the Holy Spirit and the Scriptures.

PLEASE

Image
The word "please" is a subtle cry for mercy. It expresses one's vulnerability. The phrase 'please' has reinstated businesses, work, cordial and intimate relationships. In the same vain, it has clouded the thinking abilities of individuals, thus handicapping them. These "handicap" could entail compromising to illegitimate business deal, subscribing to peer pressure, or in serious occasion, giving up one's moral values. Some have contacted venereal diseases because of please . It is true that vulnerability is a bridge to connection. But never forget that vulnerability is one of the ways. There are others means of attaining it. Connection in this context means legitimate links to self purpose. Please can be used in harmless or harmful contexts. Stay woke! Ensure you're using the term "please" to achieve a purpose, not to attack a prey. If the eventual result of the use of your "please'' doesn't align with godly re

UNEQUALLY YOKED

Who is the unequally yoked person? One who is unable to partner with you at a particular level. Failure to disassociate yourself from them will lead to sinking and eventual drowning. Anchor Scripture: { Proverbs 27:17 } "Iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.'' Ab initio, humans were not wired to live in isolation, they were wired to have companions who will help them in their daily lives. Everyone who accrues successes at different level was helped. Iron sharpens iron. Never been heard of that iron sharpen plastic or vice-versa, the iron will remain blunt and will be unable to operate at the realm it was designed to, while the plastic will be dissected into bitty parts. "Do not become partners with those who do not believe, for what fellowship does light have with darkness?"( 2 Corinthians 6:14- NET Bible ) This Biblical portion is one to ponder upon. Partnerships , Relationships , and Courtships are sensitive SHIPS that shouldn&#
