“And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?” Genesis 3:11
This incident in the Garden of Eden caused the perfect world of God to turn into a paradise of sin. God created man and woman without sin. In fact, they were oblivious to the difference between good and evil.
This perfect world changed in a split second and caused all humanity to be born with a seed of rebellion against the ways of God. You and I are self centered and want to please ourselves. We have the ability to delineate between good and evil but our inner being will always lead us astray. This conflict lives in each human being and will never go away.
You may know what is right but your inner being wants to please self. There is no hope for you unless you repent from sin and ask God to restore you to Himself. And this will not save you from relapsing again into sin.
You must live with God through the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus residing within you. The Spirit will convict you of sin and guide you into the path of God. This is your only hope to live in the righteousness of God.
He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. Make the Holy Spirit your best friend and learn to “Be still and know that I am God.”
He lives so you can live!
