Question

Help answer this question below.

There's a saying,"Satan's greatest lie was convincing us he doesn't exist" According to the book of Genesis, Satan's first and greatest lie was tricking Adam and Eve into seing "Good" and "Evil". So wasn't his greatest lie convincing us he *Does* exist?

    He did not trick Adam, he deceived Eve. Eve then expected her own feminine charm would cause Adam to give in to her plea despite Adam's certain knowledge the thing she requested was forbidden. It worked, and still does to this day. The nature of man and woman is that while man is expected to do right, he is very frequently pulled aside by a woman's desire to make him be something different than what he is. Hoping to apease her and retain her favor, he will knowingly choose evil over good. In the end, a man can never say he was deceived, only that he set aside his own desire to please a woman.

    I hope to die someday and be finished playing this stupid game over and over.

    • That certainly makes a lot more sense than Adam standing there twiddling his thumbs while Satan was having his way with Eve.
