00:00.000 --> 00:04.680
Paradise. What a wonderful time. Only

00:04.680 --> 00:06.560
from one tree they were not allowed to

00:06.560 --> 00:07.860
eat, then

00:07.860 --> 00:12.100
they would die. Someone wanted them to

00:12.100 --> 00:16.820
eat from that tree. Satan, God's enemy.

00:16.820 --> 00:19.620
Satan was a former angel who had turned away

00:19.620 --> 00:23.180
from God. His name became Satan, or devil.

00:23.180 --> 00:27.590
He hates God. Satan is a liar and a murderer,

00:27.590 --> 00:35.070
and a clever deceiver. Eve, Eve!

00:35.070 --> 00:35.520
Eve turned and

00:35.520 --> 00:38.310
saw the serpent in the tree. In the tree

00:38.310 --> 00:41.830
of the knowledge of the good and evil.

00:41.830 --> 00:42.480
Indeed,

00:42.480 --> 00:45.220
"Has God said you shall not eat from any

00:45.220 --> 00:50.560
tree of the garden?" Eve said, "We are

00:50.560 --> 00:50.840
allowed

00:50.840 --> 00:52.770
to eat, only from the tree which is in

00:52.770 --> 00:55.320
the middle of the garden, God has said: 'You

00:55.320 --> 00:55.560
shall

00:55.560 --> 00:59.970
not eat or you will die.'" "You will surely

00:59.970 --> 01:03.390
not die." The serpent whispered, "For God

01:03.390 --> 01:03.840
knows

01:03.840 --> 01:06.800
that in the day you eat from it your eyes

01:06.800 --> 01:09.880
will be open, and you will be like God,

01:09.880 --> 01:10.360
knowing

01:10.360 --> 01:16.120
good and evil." Eve looked at the fruits

01:16.120 --> 01:18.320
of the tree. They would surely make her

01:18.320 --> 01:20.040
wise.

01:20.040 --> 01:23.390
Was the serpent right? She decided to be

01:23.390 --> 01:26.840
disobedient to God. She took the fruit

01:26.840 --> 01:29.440
and bit into it.

01:29.440 --> 01:33.720
She gave it to Adam, and he ate as well.

01:33.720 --> 01:35.680
The very same moment their eyes were

01:35.680 --> 01:36.240
opened,

01:36.240 --> 01:38.660
and they knew that it was wrong and evil

01:38.660 --> 01:42.540
what they had done. They felt so bad. The

01:42.540 --> 01:42.920
serpent

01:42.920 --> 01:48.460
had deceived them. God had been right. A

01:48.460 --> 01:52.940
terrible change. They realized they were

01:52.940 --> 01:53.760
naked.

01:53.760 --> 01:56.960
Quickly they sued fig leaves together and

01:56.960 --> 01:59.960
made coverings for themselves. When the

01:59.960 --> 02:00.240
evening

02:00.240 --> 02:03.020
came, they heard God walking in the

02:03.020 --> 02:06.560
garden. They were afraid. They hid among

02:06.560 --> 02:07.720
the trees.

02:07.720 --> 02:12.260
"Adam, where are you?" Do you know God is

02:12.260 --> 02:15.680
calling you as well? Every day the voice

02:15.680 --> 02:17.000
of God is calling,

02:17.000 --> 02:21.100
"I am your creator. I provide, listen to

02:21.100 --> 02:25.320
me and look out for me." God said to Adam:

02:25.320 --> 02:25.360
"Have

02:25.360 --> 02:30.100
you eaten from the tree?" "I, Eve gave it

02:30.100 --> 02:35.800
me. She is the guilty one." "Eve, what is

02:35.800 --> 02:36.160
this you

02:36.160 --> 02:40.830
have done?" "I?! The serpent deceived me. He is

02:40.830 --> 02:45.360
the guilty one." How did they learn to

02:45.360 --> 02:46.720
blame each other?

02:46.720 --> 02:50.960
They did not need to learn. It is sin

02:50.960 --> 02:56.240
that is in them now. Since then, everyone

02:56.240 --> 02:57.120
is born in sin.

02:57.120 --> 03:00.640
Sin are all the wrong things we say or do

03:00.640 --> 03:04.280
or think that displeases God or breaks

03:04.280 --> 03:04.920
God's laws.

03:04.920 --> 03:10.450
God punishes sin. To the serpent, God

03:10.450 --> 03:14.740
said: "One day someone will punish and

03:14.740 --> 03:17.440
defeat you." Who is that?

03:17.440 --> 03:22.390
It is still a secret. Wait. To Eve, God

03:22.390 --> 03:25.600
said: "giving birth to a child will

03:25.600 --> 03:27.400
become very painful for you."

03:27.400 --> 03:32.140
To Adam, God said: "Work will become hard

03:32.140 --> 03:36.720
for you." But what is worse of all, Adam

03:36.720 --> 03:37.640
and Eve had to

03:37.640 --> 03:41.510
leave paradise. God is pure and holy. Sin

03:41.510 --> 03:47.320
cannot stay in his presence. But your iniquities

03:47.320 --> 03:47.560
have

03:47.560 --> 03:50.480
separated you from your God. Isaiah 59

03:50.480 --> 03:55.080
Verse 2. Death had entered the world.

03:55.080 --> 03:57.080
Everybody would have

03:57.080 --> 04:00.210
to die. And one day man will stand before

04:00.210 --> 04:03.630
the judgment seat of God. Whoever will be

04:03.630 --> 04:04.680
judged will be

04:04.680 --> 04:07.470
separated from God forever, forever in

04:07.470 --> 04:10.420
darkness with a heart full of never-ending

04:10.420 --> 04:11.640
sadness and pain.

04:11.640 --> 04:15.550
Believe me, God still loves man. He wants

04:15.550 --> 04:18.920
to bring him back to himself. You too.
