Biblical key doctrines have their roots in
Genesis 1-11. This is why these chapters should be defended by
Christians---not undermined or ignored by them.
And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden;
and there he put the man whom he had formed.
Genesis 2:8
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou?
She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him,
Sir,
if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.
John 20:15
Spiritually speaking, Mary's first instinct was correct. He was the GARDENER & had returned to root out a pest, a snake loose in His garden.
