The Life of Adam and Eve:
The Story of Adam and Eve...
God took some clay from the ground and made the shape of a man. Then He breathed gently into the shape. The man's eye's opened and he began to live. God called him Adam.
The Lord made a beautiful garden for him to live in. The garden, called Eden, was full of many wonderful things. Beautiful flowers grew everywhere. Birds sang in the trees, streams flowed through the valley and animals roamed across the fields.
God hade made the man in His image to keep Him company and look after the world.
God brought all the animals to Adam one at a time to be given their names. "Elephant", he would say, or "Tiger", or "Porcupine".
But God felt sorry for Adam. "None of these animals is really like him," thought God, "he needs someone to share his life. Someone who cares for him and who he can care for."
That night, God took a rib from Adam's side and made a woman. When Adam awoke the following morning, he found a wife, Eve, lying asleep beside him. Adam was so happy. He took her hand and she woke up. She looked up at him and smiled.
God told the man and woman that it was their job to take care of their new home. God blessed them, saying, "All this is for you. Help yourself to anything you like. But never touch the tree in the middle of the Garden. That tree gives knowledge of good and evil. The day you eat its fruit, you will die."God did not mean that Adam and Eve would drop down dead the moment they ate the fruit from the tree. He meant that in time they would die with out His Spirit dwelling in them.One day, Eve was gathering berries for dinner when she heard a silky voice behind her.
"Has God told you that you can eat the fruit from all the trees?" the voice asked softly. Eve turned around to see a snake talking to her."God has told us we can eat all the fruit except for what grows on The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil," Eve told the serpent."Oh come now, that's silly! I hardly think such a lovely fruit would do you any harm," the serpent lied. "God knows that if you eat from The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil you'll become just like God, and will be able to decide for yourself what is right and what is wrong."
The woman looked at the fruit and thought how tasty it looked. She thought how wonderful it would be to be as wise and powerful as God. She believed the serpent's lie and ate the fruit.
She felt a strange feeling in the pit of her stomach. She fidgeted and wondered what was wrong with her. Suddenly she realized that she was feeling guilty -- she had disobeyed God and knew she'd done something wrong.
Eve hurriedly picked some more fruit and took it back to Adam. They ate the fruit and sat in gloomy silence. As soon as they ate the fruit a change came over Adam and Eve. They became unhappy and fearful of God.
Adam and Eve heard God calling them. Without thinking, they dived into the bushes, but God knew where they were. When God asked them if they had eaten from The Tree of theKnowledge of Good and Evil that He had told them not to touch, they blamed each other for their sins.God was sad that Adam and Eve had disobeyed them. He told them that they had to leave the Garden of Eden, "From now on you'll have to scratch a living from the soil. You'll need to make clothes and grow food. Nothing will come easily -- not even childbirth. And one day, you will die."
in clear words
Lord God called out to Adam and said to him, – Where are you? –
Adam replied, – I heard the sound of You in the heaven, and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid. –
Then God / He asked, – Who told you that you were naked? Did you eat of the tree from which I had forbidden you to eat? –
Adam said, – The woman, Eve put it at my side—she gave me of the fruit, and I ate. –
Lord God said to Eve, – What is this you have done? – Then Eve replied, – The snake tricked me, and I ate. –
Lord God said to Adam, – I will set spite, anger and hostility between you and between the woman and between your offspring and her offspring; he will watch out for your head, and you will watch out for his heel. –
Lord God said to Eve, – I will make most severe your pangs in childbearing; in pain shall you bear children. Yet your urge shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you. –
To Adam He said, – Because you did as Eve said, and ate of the apple tree about which I commanded you, `You shall not eat of it,' Cursed be the ground because of you; By toil shall you eat of it all the days of your life.
The furious God expelled Adam and Eve, threw them out of heaven. Adam and Eve landed in the Garden of Eden (today's Persian Gulf) and began their lives.
I know what you are thinking. Who would want to live in the Persian Gulf Region? Aside from that, now Adam had to find a job, an apartment to support his family. He had already knocked up Eve and in a short period of time they ended up having three kids, two sons and a daughter.
Soon after Adam & Eve settled down they had three (3) children, two (2) boys and one (1) girl. The first murder of supposed fictitious human race took place when Adam's and Eve's oldest son supposedly, in an act of rivalry and jealousy killed his own brother to shack up with his own sister, and that is how human race began to come about.
I don't even want to bore you with the impossibilities of the above story of Adam and Eve, the inbreeding impossibilities and millions of other things wrong with this dim-witted story.
Aside from the scientific and logical proof, one's own common sense clearly dictates the path of life, the origin and the source of it all around us. Life began with the evolution of a single cell organism and even today, life begins with a single cell organism dividing and slowly evolving in the mother's womb, until it's ready for birth.
