God created the earth for man to enjoy life.
God created the first man and called him Adam.
But in order to live forever, Adam and Eve had to obey Jehovah God,
God gave them a simple command: (Gen. 2:16,17)
“As for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat from it,
for in the day you eat from it you will certainly die.”
Then Satan came on the scene. Speaking through a serpent,
he said to Eve, (Gen. 3:4) "You certainly will not die."
Sadly, she believed the lie and ate the fruit.
Later, her husband too ate the fruit. (Gen. 3:6)
Adam and Eve died, just as God had said they would.
In this way, sin and death entered the human family.
Romans 5:12 states:
That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death
through sin, and so death spread to all men because they had all sinned
So.... If Adam had obeyed God, he would not have died.
Adam would still be alive and in perfect health here on earth.
Satan did not stop lying about death.
At some point in time, he began to introduce other lies.
One of those lies is the teaching that the physical body dies
but that some part of the person lives on, perhaps in the spirit realm.
Satans' lie continues to deceive countless humans right down to our day.
Have you been taught satan's lie?
When someone dies, they don't really die, they become a spirit in heaven
Why do the world's religions continue to teach this lie?
1 Tim. 4:1,2 tells us why:
However, the inspired word clearly says that in later times
some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to
misleading inspired statements and teachings of demons,
2 by means of the hypocrisy of men who speak lies.
Did Adam prevent God from accomplishing His purpose?
Can one man stop Almighty God?....That would be impossible
God created the earth for man to enjoy life, not get sick and die.
Remember, Jesus cured all sickness and even resurrected the dead
John 17:3 states:
This means everlasting life, their coming to know you,
the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ.
