Front Cover
Virtualbookworm Publishing, 2004 - Religion - 116 pages
Has the power of temptation lessened since Adam and Eve encountered the serpent in the Garden of Eden? Has the fulfillment obtained from obeying God's guidelines become any less rewarding since man was first created? Life Lessons uniquely shows both the pitfalls of disobedience and the rich benefits of a life lived following God's lead by thoroughly examining the lives of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. When presented in Life Lessons, the story of Adam and Eve offers an opportunity to learn how the devil operates. More importantly, this revelatory book delivers the understanding that God has made it possible for His people to know spiritual and natural success even today. With eagle-eye precision, Life Lessons identifies the important, God-originated guidelines about women, marriage, work, the environment, and more topics that many have oversimplified as they retell a bare-bones tale of two people who ate a forbidden fruit. story in the Garden beautifully details the fulfillment available to God's people through a life of obedience. Through its Bible-study design and by highlighting the significances and lessons in life that exist more deeply in the unfolding of the story about Adam and Eve, Life Lessons provides a must-read study on the desire God had from the very beginning for the spiritual success of all His people.
