When God created His second special creation, He named Adam and put him in the planet earth which he made just enough to support life. This man is special because he was created in His image but a physical being. quite different from the angels who are spirits. The man was special partner of God in taking care of the earth where lives thrive. It was this man who named the other creation. God treated him not as servant but friend. However, God gave him just one limitation and that of not eating a certain fruit of a tree in the place where He put him, the garden of Eden. He then gave him a wife by the name of Eve.
Immediately, His enemy, Lucifer now called Satan noticed this new creation who now became the apple of God's eyes. He remembered that once in was him who had this kind of attention from God. He did not waste time and immediately launch a subtle attack against this new creation. He did not stop until the Man disobeyed God on the limitation God gave him. Satan used the glittering attraction of power. Like himself he deceived Man to commit the same mistake that he committed before, that is declaring independence from God. So, man like Satan has now severed his relationship with God. Unlike Satan who was determine to give God a good fight, Man has just lost God, and started to live a miserable life. He started to live away from God. God was sad about this, but He could not just compromise one of His attributes which is absolute holiness. In His presence, there will be no sin that could exist. He looked Man at his state and was dismayed. Unlike when Satan revolted against God, God did not plan to bring Him back to Him but when Man disobeyed God, He put up a big Plan to win man back to Him. And this this the exciting part of the story.... What is this BIG PLAN? watch this plan unfold in this blog...
