    If God created Adam and Eve in this story and Lucifer was already involved was there some time skip I wasn't aware of? Because there's a whole story of Lucifer to cover with him and his fallen angels and I find it weird they skip right through that as if there's nothing that happened between the time.

    There is more to the story. Read about the war in heaven where God banished the devil to earth.

    Alexander - "If", when you express doubt about the witness of scripture regarding God's creation of Adam

    and Eve, what difference can any other issue make that would escape your doubts?

    Unaware of? You're not alone. And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err,

    because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God? Mark 12:24

    It was God who created man...male and female He created them. It was the LORD God who later joined man to a physical body (Eve). The sin committed in Eden wasn't only the learning right from wrong but it was Eve convincing Adam that it was the right thing to do. The physical body is not supposed to command the divine self. The physical body was given as a help mate so the divine nature of man could interact with the world. Our divine nature should command our every thought, our every action, our every touch.

    My take on that is, that God took a rib bone out of his side: not out of his head so he could be over Eve; not out of the hip so Eve would be below Adam. They were a perfect pair. God even performed the first marriage. Eve was to be Adams helper.

    Eve was by herself when Satan was tempting her. She knew they were not to touch that Trees Fruit. How long was Adam gone? Why didn't he say: we're naming geckos today, why don't you come along and HELP me with that? He kissed her goodbye and left her alone.

    He wasn't over her head.....but He was Head of the Household. If you take off and are gone all day, you might get home and see 7 boxes of brand new shoes! :/

    I don't think it wasn't a matter of not having a marriage counseling shop next door. It was simply not paying attention to or forgetting to esteem others....as important as yourself. Decisions are best made together.

    Satan studies everything we do. He notes our habits. Where we go, what we do. What we look at on our computers or iPhones. He maps our weak spots. We underestimate his intention to DESTROY us and our relationship to Jesus. He hates Jesus because Jesus stepped on satans head. Genesis 3:15
