In My Fathers House – Understanding John 14 by David O. Ogaga of Nigeria – ISBN: 978-1-79294889-3-0 : 1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? 2 And the woman said unto the serpent, we may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: 3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. 4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. 6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. Genesis.3: 1-6

“verily, verily I say unto you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead (in sin and trespasses Ephesians 2:1) shall hear the voice of the son of God, and they that hear shall live” (John 5:25; Romans 3:23)

Looking at Genesis.3:1-6 and Romans.3:23, it clearly defines for us what was the outcome of the response of Adam and Eve in the garden to the voice of the serpent. Mind you I use the word “was” and it is deliberate which I will explain as you read on.
