People criticize Eve, but read that close: The tree was good for food, it was pleasant to the eyes, and it was desired to make one wise.--People think sin will "teach them somthing" and plus it seems like it will meet their needs "good for food". Good enough, in other words. I mean, after all, isn't learning the goal of life? NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Eve forsook God with that mindset. Will You?
From the outside looking in, we all can see the three things that she saw were all lies to send her to her death. Not only her death, but the death of all of her children, from then on. But when you're in your situation, can you say the same? That's why we need the mind of Christ. To discern the truth from the lies. Maybe then sin won't look so attractive...
