Genesis 3:5
"For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
The truth is after eating the forbidden fruit, Adam and Eve do know good and evil. The lie is that this is something desirable, for after disobeying God, they begin to experience firsthand the devastating consequences of sin.
The question for us today then is this: Are we willing to take God at his word? Are we willing to believe that when God warns us not to do something, he does it for our own good? Or do we need to cut and wound ourselves first like Adam and Eve did, before we begin to say to ourselves, "God was right all along, I should not have disobeyed him."
