In the beginning Adam and Eve called God a liar, along with many others all down through the ages. Read what God told Adam in Genesis 2:16-17, “And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, ‘Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.’”
Next we have a conversation with Eve and the Serpent, read Genesis
3:1-7, “Now the serpent was more cunning
than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the
woman, ‘Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?’
And the woman said to
the serpent, ‘We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; but of the fruit
of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not
eat it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die.’
Then the serpent said
to the woman, ‘You will not surely die. For God knows that in the day you eat
of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and
evil.’
So when the woman saw
that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable
to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband
with her, and he ate. Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew
that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves
coverings.”
Instead of believing God’s truth, they believed the lie and
from Adam and Eve’s day mankind has believed the lies that the enemy has been
telling them. God had His best in mind for
Adam and Eve all along, but they refused to believe Him, thinking they knew what
was best for their lives. There are many
that still live that way in our day, learning from the multitudes that went on
before them. Since the days of Adam and
Eve and their thirst to be like God and to run their own lives not trusting God,
sin has entered the world and every one of us has been affected by it. Multitudes, all down through the ages, have believed
the lie and eliminated God from their lives and reaped the consequences for
their choices. Our jails and prisons are
full of people that chose to live life their way, and I praise the Lord that
many have been redeemed in these institutions because they have heard and
received the truth.
Our society is made up of many socialists and progressive
minded people, along with others that would love a godless society, where they
could rule the people with their godless ideologies which are nothing new and
it is because many haven’t learned from the past. We are being taught there are no absolutes and
no truths, but I know I am typing this Tidbit and that is true, also if I lay
my bare hand on the muffler of my snow blower when it has been running for a
while, I will be burned and that is absolutely true.
In God’s Word it talks about how people have rejected God
and rejected His truth around 2,000 years ago and it still goes on to this day.
Read what it says about this in Romans
1:18-21, “For the wrath of God is
revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who
suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is
manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the
world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things
that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without
excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor
were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts
were darkened.”
They changed the truth of God into a lie and that is the
reason our society is hanging on the brink of total disaster. There are many people, even in our government,
that are doing their best to take God out of every facet of our lives
Pilate had the truth standing right in front of Him and he
still didn’t believe, and like I said, many have heard the truth and are still
rejecting it. What about you, have you
heard the truth and rejected it? Have
you traded the truth for a lie? If you
have I want to encourage you to get into God’s Word and ask Him to reveal
Himself to you; if you are sincere I believe that He will because He loves you!! I have given you something to think
about. Now read Psalms 34:8, “Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed
is the man who trusts in Him!”
May God bless you and yours and may you have a super day!!
