Satan the Biblical originator of the Lie...Was he?
God Told Adam:
16 The LORD God (56) commanded the man, saying, "From any tree of the garden you may eat freely;
17 but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat from it (57) you will surely die."
What did Satan tell EVE who BTW was not told directly by God not to eat from the tree but had second hand info from her sex deprived husband who probably only told her God said we have to get busy and fill the earth..so lets get jiggy with it.
Anyway Satan told Eve:
4 (69) The serpent said to the woman, "You surely will not die!
5 "For God knows that in the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and (70) you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
Did Satan lie..They did not die on that day if you aspire to the biblical account they lived for hundreds of years, did they become like God...What did God say in Gen 3:22
22 And the LORD God said, "The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever."
Exactly as Satan had told Eve and God confirms it. If you notice the latter verse a corresponding ransom was not needed to cancel out the effects of disobeying God, had they eaten from the other tree in the Garden they would have had eternal life.....Waaaazzzzuuuuppp with that, maybe the whole idea of a red pill verses a blue pill is older than you think.
Jesus perfect body or a fruit from the garden how ccould they be equal?
