The Word SERIES: 1

"When God placed Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, He
said,


Genesis 2

16 Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat;
17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall
not eat of it; for in the day that you eat thereof, you shall
surely die.
 
This was a plain commandment, yet “that old serpent, called
the Devil, and Satan,” said to Eve,
Genesis 3
4 You shall not surely die.
  
Eve was deceived and ate, and gave to her husband with her, and he ate,and so that sin brought death into the world.
 
Q: Now against what did the devil set himself in that case?
A: Against the Word of God
 
If our first parents had been loyal to the Word of God, just as God Himself gave it, they would never have fallen into the power of the devil."
E.J. Waggoner
