2 Corinthians 11:3 But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the snake’s cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ.
One of the things we always need to be aware of is that the evil one will use whatever means he can to reach into our lives to keep us away from God!
Adam and Eve knew no evil and were full of trust, so trusting the serpent was not a problem until they knew what they had done wrong; at that stage it was too late!
God does not want us to give in and follow the world because it is easier to do that, but to make a stand and hold fast to the Word of God!
