When chaos and lawlessness reign, it is a sign that people want to be free from all restraints. My Father put the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil in the garden as a restraint on Adam and Eve. He told them that they could eat of every tree in the garden, but they were not to eat of the Tree of Knowledge because if they did they would surely die.
God placed that tree in the garden to give a choice to Adam and Eve. They could choose to follow the commandment of My Father or they could choose to do what seemed right in their own eyes. They chose to disobey My Father's command and because of that sin entered the world.
If this restraining order had not been given to Adam and Eve, they would never have the choice to obey or disobey My Father. My Father wanted them to choose to obey. We have free will today to choose to love Me by obeying My commandments or to disobey Me. Love is not love unless you have a choice to love.
GENESIS 2:17
Love is a choice - whether it is for God or if it is for people. God desires people who choose to love him.
