Does Sin Have Consequences? In His Presence: 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 "From the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die" (Genesis 2:17). When Satan told Eve in the Garden of Eden that she would not die from eating the fruit from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, he emphasized his lie: "You surely will not die!" (Genesis 3:4). By telling her this, he was implying two things: God's Word could not be trusted, and there would be no consequences to her disobedience to God. Satan's fourth lie in this passage was that you can rebel against God and get away with it. |
