A Bible Choice to Life

God gave the first people in the Garden of Eden a choice between the fruit of two trees.
One was the Tree of Life and the other one the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.
Adam and Eve made a bad choice when they followed Satan's advice.
They chose to follow Satan instead of God and that was bad - they had made Satan their god, idol or leader.

But why did God make such a point of disapproving of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil?

The presence of good doesn't equalise the evil.
We may look only on the good parts .......

but God can never live in the presence of evil.
The mixture of good and evil tricks us.
There is always some good in a bad situation but God is not deceived. Don't you be tricked.

God knew our judgement would be influenced by our feelings and what other people say.
If we choose God's way we will always 'get it exactly right.'
