The battle between good and evil; light vs. dark; love vs. hate...when did it start and why? God initiated it...and we ought to thank HIm wholeheartedly for it! Before the fall there was no knowledge of good and evil; Adam and Eve knew God's will...not to eat of the tree of knowledge. Then along came a jealous serpent who wanted to be like God and got booted out of heaven...so he went to Eve and told her to eat the fruit telling her that God had lied; surely eating the fruit would not result in death! And Eve bought it...after all wasn't the snake one of God's creatures...he looked so nice. So she ate it. And as a result death did enter the world...but it was a blessing...a gift of God so that His people would not have to live forever in sin. He sent an angel to guard the tree of life..but promises us access to it in heaven. How will we get their stained with sin as we are?? Enmity... "And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head and you will strike his heel." Thank you Lord for declaring war: good vs. evil; light vs. dark; love vs. hate.
The best will win; the light will always shine brighter; and love will cancel out even the most hateful...God is love!
