Adam & Eve: He Just Couldn't Resist

Eve's Story

I am so happy to finally have the opportunity to tell the story as it really happened. Don't

worry. I won't change the original and true version. But I will get to expose it for its true value.

And I want to thank my dear Father for finally allowing me this opportunity.

To begin with, I would like to relate my husband's rendition of life before I was brought

in on the scene. Adam enjoyed fellowshipping with our Father, who birthed him from His very

Being. I thought it most astonishing when I learned that Father had actually formed my husband

from the dust of the earth, and then breathed His very own Spirit into him to give him life.

Imagine that. Only the Father could do something as wondrous as bringing life to a lump of dirt.

They had a special relationship, my husband and Father. Adam said that Father had given

him total dominion over this planet called earth. Even though we originated in what is known as

the Garden of Eden, Father told Adam that He was appointing him god over all the earth and

over all that was within it. He even had all of the animals to march up to Adam for him to name

them. And whatever name Adam decided to give to the animals was what they were called.

Adam's dominion applied to the grounds of the earth as well. There was no need for my husband

to tend the grounds. All he had to do was speak to it and the land obediently brought forth food

in due season.

Usually during the early morning hours, my husband said he would enjoy long swims

with the fish, which honored his very presence. The wind would obediently blow Adam dry

whenever he stepped out of the waters. Hed jump in and out over and over again, just to feel the

warm winds obey his desire to be blown dried again.

Adam loved to play. He was so childlike. Fun. He even played with the angels who,

according to him, weren't always as excited about playtime as he was. There were two such

angels who were posted just outside of the Garden. They were over nine feet tall and wore

glimmering attire that shone almost as brightly as the sun. Their belts were made from pure gold

and at their sides were flaming swords. Adam said that one day he offered the angels some of his

food. The angels looked at one another, and then at Adam, and smiled with a slight shaking of

their heads. They simply explained to Adam that their job was not to eat the food placed there

for him, but to guard the Garden until they were told to do otherwise.

One day, Father came down to visit with Adam. It was in the early part of the evening,

the time during which Father would usually come to visit. It was after one such visit that Adam

felt really special at what he overheard the two angels talking about.

"Have you noticed how the Almighty treats Adam? How exceptionally loving He istoward him?"

"Yes. As a matter of fact, I have.

What is Man, that even God would leave His throne in the cool of the day just to visit

him?

Hes made Adam to be His heir."

"True, but doesn't the Almighty realize what He gave to Adam?"

"What do you mean?"

"A will. He gave Adam a free will.

So?

So, surely you haven't forgotten what happened to Lucifer and part of our family

because of the free wills we were given?"

"Of course I haven't forgotten. Lucifer used his free will to exalt himself. He was foolish

enough to think he could overthrow God.

And he dragged one-third of the angels with him. Now theyve fallen, too.

It was their own fault. They couldve chosen God but they believed empty promises

from Lucifer.

What made him think that the creation could ever be greater than the Creator?"

"Tisk tisk. That Lucifer never was too keen."

"Well he was keen enough to deceive one third of the angels into following him."

"True. That is why our fallen friends have been chained and bound in the underworld

until the appointed time."

"And Lucifer was cast down here to earth. I saw him fall from heaven like lightning.

Sorry. I don't mean to snicker. But it was a sight to see."

"I'll bet. God wasted no time in expelling him."

"That was many, many years ago, my friend. And it was his fall that caused this planet to

become void and catastrophic."

"Well, of course. I know very well that our God did not create a catastrophe. Old Lucifer

himself made a mess of things when he fell. That is why we all rejoiced when the Almighty

decided to once again allow His Glory to permeate and fill this atmosphere."

"What was it that He shouted from His inner most Being?"

"`LET THERE BE LIGHT', He said. Isn't it wonderful the way He restored the earth

back to its original beauty?"

"Well, He is God, don't forget."

"Oh, I won't. But it still puzzles me as to why Adam causes the Almighty to become all

goo-goo eyed whenever He mentions his name to any one of us. Why, we've had the pleasure of

serving the Master for centuries, but He's never looked at us in the same manner. Tell me, friend.

What is Man, that even God will leave His throne in the cool of the day to visit him?

"Let me explain something to you, my friend. We angels are God's beloved creation. But

man is made in God's very image. He brought Adam forth from Himself. And He adores him.

We should feel honored however, for we have been assigned the wonderful task of protectingGod's most precious possession."

"Speaking of which, where is Adam now?"

"He's playing a game, actually. He thinks that I do not see him. There he is."

My husband said that the angels were not angry at him for eavesdropping, but rather

amused by his childlike innocence. Shortly afterward however, Father came to visit with him.

Adam thought they were going to laugh, talk and share the day's events as usual. But instead,

Father put my husband into a deep sleep.

Many times my husband has relayed the moment of when he was first introduced to me.

Father had been expressing how proud of him He was up to that point, proud of how he was

handling his authority over the beasts of the fields and the fowl of the air. God had also brought

3


4/14

to Adam's attention how for each male beast, there was a female counterpart. And for every male

fowl, there was a female companion, and so it was with the fish.

"And now, My son, it is time that you be blessed with your help mate."

Adam said that Father then brought the most peaceful rest over him that he had ever

known. And when he awoken from it, there I was by his side. I found myself being held in the

arms of someone that I knew, but had never met. I felt secure and happy in his bosom while the

Glory of our Father hovered above us. And then His voice spoke, filling us to the utmost with

His love. Repopulate the earth, My children."

The sun was setting - my favorite part of the day. The air was a bit cooler now and the

birds made music for us. My husband and I were about to fall asleep when we suddenly heard

the much welcomed voice of our Father.

My children, awaken yourselves, for I have something that you must be made

aware of. As a parent, it is only fair that I teach you in the way that you must go.

Adam and I stood to attention right away. I myself couldnt suppress the overwhelming

joy that I felt anytime Father would make His Presence known. He shone forth a love that not

even Adam was cable of displaying. Even when He was being stern, there was never any sense

of fear. Just an awesome love.

Adam he continued, have you given a name to my daughter as of yet?

Oh, no. Not yet Father. Ive been having so much fun with her that giving her a name

was the least of my thoughts.

Well son, I would like to know how I might address my daughter, and since I did

give her to you . . .

Say no more, Father. I shall call her Eve. How does that please You?

How does it please her?

I am very pleased with the name my husband has chosen for me, Father, I said.

Then I, too, am well pleased. But there is another matter which I would like to

discuss with you, Adam. I hesitated telling you this before I brought Eve to you because it

4


5/14

is something you both should hear together. You are partners now, a team. You Eve, are

flesh of Adams flesh and bone of Adams bone. You are one with each other, as you are

also one with Me. Dont ever forget that.

He paused for several minutes. Adam and I both knew He wanted our undividedattention.

I have placed many trees in the garden for your eating pleasures - except for one.

Then Father lead us to a particular tree and allowed us to observe it for a moment. Adam nor I

had noticed it before, though there was nothing unusual about it. It was just as beautiful as all

the others. I was tempted to pull one of the fruits from the branch, but the expression on my

husbands face told me that I should wait to hear what the Father had to say about this tree first.

But of this tree He continued,the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, you are

not to eat thereof. No matter what, do not allow yourselves to be deceived by the enemy

that was cast from heaven many ages ago. Be aware, because he lurks about. He seeks to

avenge Me. And the only way he can do that is through harming you, my children. As of

now, as long as you are obedient to My Word you will have continual protection. When you

see him, Adam, waste no time in casting him into the pit where he belongs. For I have

given you the authority to do so, and you must therefore exercise your authority.

"I understand father," my husband said, giving my hand a gentle squeeze. "I shall not eatthe fruit of this tree. Nor shall my lovely wife."

"For the day that you eat of it, you shall surely die. Do you understand Me,

Adam?

Sure, my husband answered gleefully. Then Father embraced us in His love. The

Glory, the very Being of God Himself, cuddled us to the point where Adam nor I wanted to do

anything but remain there and absorb all of Him. I guess I could only explain this feeling as a

sort of holy euphoria.

Then it happened a couple of weeks after Fathers warning to us. Adam and I had been in

the part of the Garden where we were first introduced to one another. Both of us were glorifying

Father, but my attention was suddenly diverted to a creature that was of inexplicable beauty. It

stood almost as tall as my husband and possessed a shiny gloss to its emerald covering. The eyes

5


6/14

were a pit less black and it moved about in the most carefree, hypnotizing motion. A very

attractive being.

Oh Adam, look. Look at the beauty of the creature which lurks in our midst. My

husband momentarily diverted his attention from the Glory to me, the love-smile still on his face.

Eve, what is it about this creature that allures you so, that even the Glory does not keep

your attention?

Oh Adam, you know that I adore Father. Nothing else is capable of comparison. But of

all the creatures youve shown to me, I dont recall having seen this particular one of such

distinct grace.

My dear Eve, that is the serpent, he said, a creature no greater than any of Fathers

other creatures. And I may exercise my dominion over it as well.

My husband then proceeded to lie down and rest. He appeared to be confused by my

engrossment with the serpent. But I couldnt be concerned with that. He didnt understand how

I felt. It was as though the serpent was speaking to me in its own sly way. And if I didn't know

better, I'd say that it was deliberately avoiding saying anything to my husband, almost as though

it did not want to be seen by Adam.

Adam, did you hear that? I asked with a hasty thrill in my voice. It said for me to

follow it. Adams eyes remained closed as he attempted to pull me down beside him. But I was

not tired. I wanted to see where the serpent was headed. And therefore I decided to follow the

creature. I didnt think it would cause any harm. Besides, maybe there were others of such

beauty around.

I followed it admiringly, wondering if its female counterpart was as graceful. It lead me

to a tree, the very tree which my Father had warned Adam against. Then it spoke, and this time,

I was sure that I was not imagining it.

Isnt this a lovely tree? Just look at the marvelous fruit which it brings forth.

Yes, this tree is lovely, I agreed. But there are many other trees in the garden that are

just as lovely.

None are as magnificent as this particular tree, however. Look at its rich branches and

luscious fruits. Id bet theyre just dying to be picked and eaten.

6


7/14

Yes, I guess so, I said looking around for my husband. I thought for sure he wouldve

followed me there. But I dont believe the fruits of this tree are any more delectable than the

others, I said to this handsome creature.

Really? Dont you agree that their taste is just a bit more pleasing?

Well, I cannot say for certain, being as I have yet to taste of this particular tree. Nor am

I allowed.

What? Not allowed did you say? Why would God not allow Man, His most treasured

being, His very own children, to taste of such exquisite fruit?

"I don't know my Father's reasons, except that He loves us and does not want to see us

harmed. He said that we must not eat or touch of the tree or else we would surely die." At that

point, I recall the serpent wrapping its body around the trunk of the tree as though embracing it

with himself.

"Did God really say that you would die if you touched the tree? If that were so, why am I

still alive?"

"I don't know. Maybe we can ask Him and . . ."

"Um, wait . . . no need to ask on my account. I can tell you the real reason God does not

want you or Adam to eat of this tree." I waited to hear his explanation. "God knows that if youwere to eat thereof that you would be like God Himself." I began to think about what the serpent

was saying.

"But, that cannot be the reason," I replied. "For my husband and I are already like God.

He made us in His image, and He made us to have dominion over every creature on this planet,

including you."

"Well then, you tell me the reason, Woman."

"I don't know the reason."

"Well I do. It is because you will receive knowledge. Why else would it be called the

Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil? It is because you will become all-knowing like your

God."

"But, we are like God. My husband was born from Him, and I from my husband. We

have all the knowledge we need."

7


8/14

"Really? Then why am I able to touch the tree and yet live?"

"I do not know."

As I stood there thinking over what was just said, the serpent's forked tongue slithered

into one of the fruits, piercing its soft, ripened skin and spilling the syrup on top of my foot.

Without hesitating, as though out of reflex, I bowed and wiped the juice from my foot, licking it

from my fingers. It was so sweet and satisfying that I couldn't imagine why my God would want

to keep something this blessed away from us. I stood up and was startled to find my husband by

my side.

"Eve, what are you doing? Father said that I should come and rebuke the evil one right

away. Could He possibly be referring to my wife?

"Oh, Adam, how could you even imply such a thing?"

"Then what is it that you're doing to cause Father to have such urgency in His voice?"

"All I was doing was tasting of this most gratifying food."

"What have you done, Eve? Father said that we must not eat of this tree or else we would

die."

"But Adam, I'm not dead." Then I looked around for the serpent and found that he had

sauntered several yards away from us. "And neither is the serpent."

"Did he force you to eat of this tree, Eve?"

"Of course he did not force me. I tasted it of my own free will. And look at me. I'm just

as alive as you are. Here," I said placing my fingers near his lips. "You must have a taste." He

seemed to shiver with temptation, trying with all his might to resist my offer. "Just taste it,

Adam. Nothing will happen."

"But Father said not to."

"The only reason Father said not to was because He doesn't want us to know all that He

knows."

"That's not true, Eve. We are His children. We have a right to all that is His."

"But we don't know everything, Adam. For if we did, we would not need to annoy Father

with all our petty inquiries."

8


9/14

"But if we did know everything, and if we never had need of Him, then which of us

would be God? There can only be one, Eve. Nobody should exalt himself above Him Who Is,

lest they be cast down. Don't you remember what He told us about the archangel, Lucifer, and

why he fell from heaven? If Lucifer had been satisfied with his position, he would've still been

one of God's most precious creations. But he said `I will be like the Most High; I will be like

God'. But because there can only be one God, Lucifer was cast from heaven and is now known

as Satan." My husband stared hard and long at me. "Such knowledge isn't worth loosing the

love of my Father, Eve."

"But that's another thing I don't understand, Adam. Where is this Satan you speak of? He

was supposedly cast down to the earth, but I haven't seen him. Have you?"

My husband seemed confused. "No."

"Could it be that we've seen him and didn't know it, Adam?"

"It could be. Maybe you're right, Eve. Maybe if I tasted of the fruit, I would at least

receive the knowledge I need to discern this evil Satan. Then, being as I have dominion over all

the creatures of this earth, I would be able to cast him into the pit with the other fallen angels that

are bound until the appointed time."

My husband wasted no time. He pulled the fruit from its branch and bit into it with long

awaited fervor. And then he smiled at me. "You were right, Eve. We didn't die."

"See, I told you."

"Wait until Father hears about this," said my husband as he took another bite. "He'll be

so proud of us."

We began to run around the way we usually did whenever we were excited or happy. We

wanted Father to know of our new discovery. But, something wasn't the same. Something about

the thought of being in Father's presence wasn't as pleasing as it had once been. Then my

husband stopped running and just stared at me. It was a sad, frightened kind of stare.

"Wait a minute, Eve," he said looking down at himself. "We can't let the Father see us

looking this way." That's when Adam grabbed me by the hand and we ran together to find

refuge.

9


10/14

I don't know. We must've remained hidden for hours and hours. I can't say that we even

understood why we were hiding at all. I think we believed that Father loved us. But . . .

something was wrong. We couldn't sense His Glory anymore.

It seemed as though time itself had abandoned us. If it was moving at all, it was at anincredibly slow pace. I sat huddled beneath a tree for what seemed like days. My husband sat

nearby, but not so close, not the way he used to. He didn't smile at me as much either. Not the

way he used to. And when we ate it was usually at separate times. The fruits didn't seem as

flavorful anymore, and on some of them, soft, brown spots had begun to form. The fish weren't

obedient to Adam's voice anymore. Instead of bringing themselves to the surface of the water at

the sound of his voice, they remained where they were and pretended not to hear him. Now as it

were, Adam had to go into the stream and actually wrestle just to get something for our meals.

But worst of all, we hadn't heard Father's voice since the day we tasted of the tree. I was

beginning to wonder if He still loved us.

"Adam, Adam . . . where are you, My son?"

Upon hearing Father's voice Adam and I stood to immediate attention, careful not to let

Father see us as we now were.

"I am here, Father."

"Why are you attempting to hide from Me?"

"We were ashamed because of our nakedness."

My husband claimed we were ashamed of our nakedness, but I personally was

embarrassed because I wasn't quite sure how I was going to go about telling God that He was

wrong. That we had eaten of the forbidden fruit and did not die.

"Don't you know that you can never hide yourselves from Me? And who told you

that you were naked?"

"No one had to tell us, Father. We realized it for ourselves."

"What is it that you've done, Adam? What have you done that would cause you to

become afraid of Me? Have you eaten of the tree which I forbade."

10


11/14

"Th-th...the woman you gave me has eaten of the forbidden tree, Father." I was

astounded that my husband would suddenly point the finger at me for this error. Before I had a

chance to defend myself, I felt Father's wrath turn on me.

"Eve, what have you done?"

"Th- the serpent, Father. He deceived me."

"He deceived me, too, Father."

"Silence, Adam. Eve speaks the truth, whereas you speak falsely. Eve was deceived

by Satan who posed as the serpent. When I said not to eat of the tree, I specifically

addressed the command to you, Adam, as lord over the earth. I had appointed you king. It

was your responsibility to see to it that your mate followed my instructions as well. You

were given dominion over all the creatures of the land by Me. You, Adam, had the power to

cast down the enemy that had beguiled your wife. I delegated the authority to you, and you

gave it away through disobedience. Eve is not to blame, Adam. You are.

"But Father, I only did it so that I could discern the evil one that You spoke of. How was

I supposed to know that Satan was operating through the serpent? I had never known evil. How

could I have possibly known that this was the evil one which should've been cast into the pit?"

"Enough of the whining, Adam," Father shouted. "Anything that goes contrary to My

Word is of evil. I and My Word are one. I gave you a commandment, then the enemy

comes along and gives you a suggestion. You were given a free will and you used it to

disobey Me, the Father of Light. In so doing, you have turned over your lordship to the

father of lies. Satan himself.

I wanted to tell God that He was wrong, but I realized that He wasn't. When He said we

would surely die if we ate of the tree, He didn't mean right away. I realized that He meant we

would begin to die. And we had.

I was no longer quite as loving with my mate. Where we used to be in total agreement,

there was now friction. I was experiencing discomfort with my skin. The grass would

sometimes make me itch now. The child within me caused pains like I had never known. Adam

was becoming fatigue toward the end of each day. Neither of us possessed the glorious might

that we once had. We didnt run around to play anymore. Too much work to be done. Sin was

settling in, not just in us, but in the land as well. The grass wasn't as green and the fruits did not

11


12/14

survive as long. They would turn brown or green with mold and shrivel. Pestilence were

beginning to destroy our crops, and we did not know how to stop them. We had lost the

authority to stop them. God was right. Though we lived, we had surely died.

THE SENTENCING

As soon as Father learned of our sin, He immediately put us outside of the garden and

appointed the two angels to guard the entrance. He explained that His reason for doing this was

to prevent Adam and myself from eating of the Tree of Life which would've caused us to live

eternally in the sinful state which we were in, with never any hope of redemption. Fortunately,

as it turned out, God had already made plans for our deliverance.

First, for allowing himself to be used by Satan, the serpent was cursed to eat dust

throughout the remainder of his days. As soon as God announced the punishment, the serpent

fell hard upon its belly, hitting the ground with a heavy thud.

My punishment was not quite as harsh as I thought it should've been. I was told that in

bringing my children into the world, I would be in great travail. The worst part was that I had

brought this same affliction upon all of the daughters of my womb.

My husband was sentenced to a life of labor in the fields. I asked Adam what was meant

by that and he explained that since the earth was now cursed, anything that it produced would

also be cursed. The plants, fruits and vegetables would now have a specified time of ripeness.

Whereas in the beginning they would've lasted forever, they now rot after a matter of days.

That's why laboring in the fields would never cease until the earth is once again redeemed.

Then God proceeded to announce Satan's punishment. It took me a moment to realize He

was not addressing the serpent, but the spirit of Satan himself. Satan's sentence was the most

severe, but on the other hand, most beneficial to us. God spoke these words to His arch enemy.

"I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your seed and her

seed."

I wasn't quite sure what Father meant by this statement. Everyone knew that the male

carried the seed and the female, the egg. I wondered what Father meant when He said, `seed of

12


13/14

the woman. My eating of the Tree of Knowledge definitely had no bearings on my knowledge

up to this point. My husband explained to me what the Father was referring to.

"He has made provisions for our salvation," he said. "Father's going to redeem us

through a Savior, and this Savior will be born of a woman, meaning He will have no earthlyfather.

"But, why is that, Adam? Why must our Savior be born of a woman? How will our

Savior be born of a woman?"

"One question at a time, my wife. Father is going to make Himself another man . . ."

"Another man?" I rudely interrupted. "How can He do that when the very earth is

cursed?"

"Not from the earth, Eve. And not from the seed of an earthly man either. But from His

own Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit Himself will infuse with the egg of a virgin, which will then

become her seed. This will be our Redeemer.

I took a few moments to ingest all of this. Then finally I asked, "why not use an earthly

man to impregnate a virgin?"

"Because in the seed of an earthly man, sin abounds. In order to redeem us and restore

the authority back to Gods people, God must be able to operate through a man who has not beenpoisoned by sin. Through this sinless man, our relationship with the Father can be restored to the

way it was in the beginning. But from this time until then," my husband explained, "Satan will

try extra hard to destroy our future Savior. This is because he doesn't know exactly when He will

come into the Earth. That secret belongs to the Father. And from this time until the end of time,

Satan will hate all of mankind for replacing him as Gods most treasured possession. But he will

especially hate the woman because it is she who will give birth to the One who shall ultimately

destroy him."

So while my husband works in the fields and as my belly swells to capacity, we look

forward to the coming of our Redeemer. We may no longer be on this present earth, but the

Word has been spoken. And now, all of heaven is making preparation for the arrival of our King.
