Adam and Eve Disobey

One day, a sneaky snake came to Eve. He was actually the devil in disguise!

'Did God really say you can't eat ANY fruit?' the snake asked.

'We can eat any fruit except from that one tree,' Eve said. 'If we eat it, we'll die.'

'No you won't!' the snake lied. 'You'll become wise like God!'

Eve looked at the fruit. It looked so yummy. She wanted to be wise. So she picked some and took a bite. She gave some to Adam, and he ate it too.

Oh no! Right away they felt different. They felt bad inside. They knew they had done something wrong. They tried to hide from God.

'Adam, Eve, where are you?' God called.

They came out, feeling ashamed. 'We ate the fruit,' they admitted.

God was sad. Now there would be sadness and hard work and sickness in the world. Adam and Eve had to leave the beautiful garden.

But even though God was sad, He still loved them! He made them warm clothes. And He made a special promise: someday, someone from Eve's family would defeat the sneaky snake forever.

That someone was Jesus!
