It started with a lie. ( 2 John v 7 )

 There was time when  everything in the garden was rosy ,in  fact it was perfect, it is hard to imagine such a place, such a time ,we are so used to imperfection, that is the norm. Imagine no sickness, no suffering of any kind, and there was no weeds, and it gets better, for in that garden dwelt two people and they never had a fall out, harmony reigned. For this couple this was the beginning of a perfect relationship, what could go wrong?, yes you may well ask, what indeed. You have heard the saying ,'all  good things must come to a end', in this case it did not have to be, alas for that couple it was going to be. Now I have not mentioned someone else, God, the one who brought everything into being. The crown  of his creation was the man and the women, they were called Adam and Eve, he left them to look after the garden, told them what they should do, and what thy shouldn't do. What they shouldn't do, it was simple, they were not to eat of the fruit of a certain tree, if they did, it would be disastrous. He left them to it, after a while the devil in the shape of a serpent appeared, and spoke lies to Eve, and she fell for it ,'hook line and sinker'. Being deceived she then turned her attention, to the forbidden fruit. We will continue this next time ,I will just finish with this thought, the devil is still telling people lies, beware.
