What The Church Doesn’t Want You To Know About Adam and Eve

In the bible, the story of Genesis tells about Adam and Eve in the Garden and Eden and the forbidden fruit that became original sin, but there are some really crazy things about this story you may not have heard before until today!

When I was a kid, I would often read a Children's Bible that was in the waiting room of a doctor's office. In that particular Bible, it was explained that Eve was not startled by the talking snake because she was actually delighted to have someone new to talk to other than Adam or God. Not to say any version/theory is right or wrong, I just thought this idea was worth a mention.

Before Adam and Eve leave the garden of Eden he creates garments for them to wear. In one final act of love for his disobedient children he gives them the protection they will need to survive in a much harsher environment than they're used to and by example teaches them how to craft more garments for themselves. It speaks volumes about the nature of God himself and the trials he sets before us. Despite overwhelming odds he is always ready to provide what is needed to persevere - even when we don't deserve it.

Hang on, there were two important trees in the garden of eden. The first bore fruit regarding the knowledge of good and evil while the other bore fruit as referenced in Genesis 3:22, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil.

[@randomname123456789]

Exactly. From 6:44 in the video he asks "so why did God not want them to eat this forbidden fruit?" meaning the fruit of the *knowledge* of good and evil, and then he says there's nothing to indicate it shouldn't be eaten in the future - at 6:59 he quotes revelation 22:7 "to the one who is victorious I will give the right to eat from the tree of *life*" this is a different tree/fruit! Some interesting points in this video but this misunderstanding of such a basic point makes me suspicious of his well researched it is. They were permitted to eat from the tree of life which sustains life as long as they keep eating it (I.e. immortality). Once they get banished from the garden of Eden (because they ate the forbidden knowledge fruit) they are condemned to be mortal and eventually die (because no longer can eat from the tree of life) and the rest of humanity is condemned along with them. Jesus then offers a way to eternal life by believing in him, as he was the perfect sacrifice done once, and for all. This is what revelation refers to, being able to eat once more from the tree of Life, i.e. immortality.

Revelation 22:7, KJV: Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.

Genesis 2:16-17 KJV: And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. From the creation of man, they were never supposed to die, thus God not allowing them to eat from the TREE OF LIFE. Thus when they ate from the tree that was the day that started their death. Rev 2:7 is referring to the same TREE OF LIFE when the "victorious", is in the paradise(heaven) of God. Since they are in the paradise of God therefore there is no longer any death. Just like in the Garden of Eden.

The problem with changing Religion just so to calm down the sceptics is that the sceptics and the disbelievers take it as further signs that Religion is man made and not divine while those who actually believe tend to start having doubts and become disillusioned because all the things they held dear as being the ultimate divine truth got changed or even discarded ..Because the people who have done the most disservice to Religion are the ones who made it their mission to spread Religion. It because a game of numbers rather than path to salvation and eternal prosperous bliss. They started tweaking religion just so that more people would accept the faith and in the process totally destroyed the faith. Religion was meant for individual’s salvation not because God needed more followers but because Man needs God. Unfortunately humans sacrificed the divine just to gain personal followers and supporters or in other words Fame, Influence and Power..

There were two schools of thought. The Alexandrian school, Origin, was heavily influenced by Gnostic Greek Philosophy. They used an allegorical approach to theology, note Origin’s interpretation of the Good Samaritan. They believed the basic interpretation was overly simplistic and Scripture had a higher allegorical interpretation. We see this allegorical interpretation a lot in the Catholic Church. By the way, Origin would have been considered heretical by almost any Christian today. The Antioch school was much more literal in their interpretation. These were made up of the Jewish Christians that fled the fall of Judea. Their interpretation became much more popular during the Reformation with Luther and Calvin. By the way, B. B. Warfield changed his evolution views as he aged. Genesis one is about the creation of the world. Genesis two is about the creation of the Garden of Eden on day six. God did not “teach” Adam how to make clothes. God made the first sacrifice that points to the sacrifice of Christ.

To the Jews, Satan is an angel of God without being evil. Nor does it make sense to punish all snakes because Satan disguised himself as one. In addition, the text says that the snake is cunning. Satan does not crawl on his belly in other passages either. 3. God lies when he says people will die if they eat the fruit. The snake tells the truth. And humans couldn't have been immortal before, otherwise the passage doesn't make sense about God being afraid, humans eat the other fruit and become immortal.

[@morgfarm1]

​@@Sk8ngInDuval Finally, someone else acknowledges the difference between Satan and Lucifer. Look, I dropped my faith in Christianity some years ago. I follow more paganistic traditions and adopted a polytheistic perspective using an omnist system that incorporates the Egyptian, Greek/Roman and Norse pantheons, But Satan is NOT the evil or bad fellow The Church has made him out to be. Lucifer is the one to not get too engaged with. Satan (known better in some circles as Baphomet, see the Church of the Satanic Temple as a prolific example) is actually a fairly laid back individual and has a long fuse when it comes to anger issues. He's one of those that would take joy in a conversation by a campfire over a couple of beers. (He appreciates the message the Satanic Temple is trying to convey but would have preferred to not have his name and face connected to it - and yes that's his aaaactual face) Lucifer, and a known 'relative' of his that I have a name for (Not the 'actual' name, just an answered-to name), that should be avoided at all costs. A thing about names: If you have their true name, you have power over them. The names we know them by here are 'chosen' names, for the sake of credit and identity. But without putting themselves into a compromising position. I have the actual name to one so-called 'demon' (That's another topic all together) as provided to me by his mother in times of emergency, very friendly to me and most, but like the rest of us, has a line you just don't cross -- I'm one of those lines -- and you think he's scary, his mother frightens me more than the child does - but I'm close with this family, so unless I blatantly go against them as treason, I'm in pretty good hands. (also I did ask, yes the fiddle battle in Georgia happened, yes he lost, that was planned the entire time because he can't play the fiddle anyway, he just wanted to have some fun with a local and give him a story to tell -- he did eventually get the fiddle back by way of a loophole once the victor passed away - He plans to do it again in the future and kind of make a tradition of it with a different instrument elsewhere in the world)

Somewhere along the line, Christianity accepted many paganistic things like Christmas celebrations and Apples of eden. You see, Iðunn is the name of the Norse Goddess of youth and apples. Her apples grant etternal youth which along the way of the Christening and oppresion of the Norwegian and their pagan religion, it was adopted. "Youth" was then exchanged for "vitality" and it became Eternal Life so in terms, Eden wasnt a place, it was a literal garden of a goddess named Iðunn or Idun who provided apples to the norse gods.

Correction please: the video time stamp 7:05; Rev 22:7 is referring to the second tree which God says He did not want Adam to "put out his hand and take also" So He drove them out of the garden.

Otherwise, most everything you cover in your video makes a lot of sense.

[@grtexas4741]

The first advice I can give anyone is if you have not read the Bible for yourself you should really consider reading it. You will find that the Bible says that With God all things are possible. When you read the word of God it is up to each individual if they choose to believe it or not. But you will also come across a passage that will tell you that most people are not entering into the kingdom of God when they die. Because without faith it is impossible to please God. "While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal."( 2 corinthians 4:18)

From you comment, I have heard from other Christians that women are nothing to god, Eve was simply a mobile sack of meat that babbled too much. What mattered is man & that's it in the schemes of creation. I have read 1Corinthians 1:20 and 3:19, as I see it. God need man to be ignorant, easier to control & to indoctrinate. As man learns more of the realities of this world & slowly understands more of this universe. God appears nothing more but an illusion of ignorance. "He catches the wise of his craftiness..." No he doesn't. “The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile.” We now know that the thoughts of the wise is very fruitful, just look around in our advances in science & technology. The laptop you are using. We can fly! Heck, man has walked unto the moon & are set to return to the moon. And one day we will start colonizing our neighboring planets. That verse is simply in defense of ignorance & stupidity, where god is the end all be all answer for everything. By the way, I view the genesis bible story simply a mythological story, not even an allegory. Any interpretations made on the bible are done by Christian apologist, they do this toss of word salads game, often redefining words to excuse god or shoe god into existence. Just plain weird what they do, if you ask me.

Whatever faith tradition you prescribe to, or are lacking, I find it incredibly interesting to those who say that The Genesis account is not history. Only very liberal Rabbis and some liberal Pastors/Priests say that it is allegorical. However, the main point I would like to make is that the Judeo/Christian/Islamic faith traditions trace their ancestry directly back to Abraham. Abraham is specifically listed in a genealogy dating back to Adam. Scriptural history aside, I find it amazing that Genesis said that we have one male ancestor, and one female ancestor. Fast forward a quite a few thousand years with modern technology and science, and well isn't that interesting!?!? Modern science has proven through mitochondrial DNA that we have a genetic Eve, and through chromosomal DNA has proven a common male ancestor as well. So how would a stone age tribe even know or begin to have this concept? Because they always knew. It was an oral tradition started with those first humans. Now proven by science. Incredible!

I think you misrepresented the story about the forbidden fruit, in which you mentioned that, "God didn't say they could never eat from the tree of knowledge, ... merely that they couldn't eat from it right now." I suggest you read the Bible, Genesis 2:16-17, specifically says, "And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you MUST NOT EAT from the tree of the KNOWLEDGE of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.” FYI, there are TWO special trees mentioned in Genesis; chapter 2 verse 9 says: "The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground-trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the TREE OF LIFE and the TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE good and evil." The "tree of the knowledge..." was the one forbidden to be eaten. While the TREE OF LIFE, was the one mentioned in Revelation 22:7, for this was the TREE that Adam and Eve failed to consider while they were still in the garden. I hope you will make your facts straight and let not people mislead.
