When Mother/Father God created the world before the Dawn of Time and Space, everything was in perfect balance. Then, according to the Hebrew Scriptures, Eve was tempted by the Serpent, ate the Forbidden Fruit, then gave some to Adam which he also ate. Their eyes were opened and they realized they were naked. After sewing fig leaves together, they tried to hide when God walked in the Garden of Eden. God asked them why, and Adam said Eve gave the fruit to him because the Serpent said to her that surely you shall not die, but you be like gods and live forever. God cursed the Serpent to crawl upon its belly and cast both Adam and Eve from the Garden, placing a flaming sword at the entrance, preventing their return. By the sweat of their brow they must till the soil and work the land to survive. Paradise was lost to them and the human family was corrupted by a sinful nature requiring redemption by God through his only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. It would be four thousand years until the Nativity would occur in a Judean stable lighted by a unique star guiding shepherds from the fields and Wise Men from the East to see this child. Peace on Earth!
