I have read the Genesis account many times over the years, but I remember clearly the moment when I read Genesis 3:8 seemingly for the first time. Our church had recently conducted a 90-minute worship set during a service where the presence of the Lord fell so powerfully that the musicians stopped playing and the entire congregation worshiped the Lord in silence. In those moments, we bathed in His glory. Sensing that the Holy Spirit had moved in our midst, we recognized that our lives were powerfully touched; something had shifted, and we were not the same.

Through conversing and walking with Him, they knew nothing apart from His awesome truth. Even so, Satan was able to twist the words of God in such a way that they were both deceived and subject to death.
God wants us to take His Word very seriously. In Genesis 2:16-17, the Lord gave Adam and Eve a simple, clear command. They had permission to live abundantly and eat of all the trees in the garden except for one. They were not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil under any circumstances or else their perfect, beautiful life would end and they would die. I assume they didn’t understand what death was, but th
