The Garden of Eden was a perfect and beautiful place where Adam and Eve the first two people that God had created were placed. God had blessed them abundantly with everything they could possibly have wanted in the Garden.

God had only one restriction and that was Adam and Eve were not to eat from the "tree of the knowledge of good and evil".

This one commandment was not to be cruel towards Adam and Eve, but it was meant to protect them. God also wanted them to show their love and obedience towards Him.

The Bible records that The Garden of Eden is the place where Satan entered into the serpent and subtly tricked Eve. Satan misinformed Eve and turned her against God by enticing her into believing certain doctrines that he wanted to plant into the human race.

Satan's cunning tactics worked as he deceived her into taking of the fruit of the "tree of the knowledge of good and evil" that God had clearly forbidden.

This event caused the whole human race to fall and become separate from God their creator (Romans 5:12). Disobedient sin is what separates all mankind from God. This, of course, was Satan's plan from the beginning, to lead the human race away from God.
