God gave one command to Adam " From any tree of the garden you may eat freely; but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day you eat from it you will surely die". Later the serpent convinced Eve that what God had said was not true. The serpent said that they would not surely die but "your eyes will be opened and you will be like God." Both Eve and Adam then ate from the tree and their eyes were opened and they hid themselves from God in the garden. What was the first question God asked Adam after Adam and Eve did this?
- A.
  
  Why did you eat from the tree?
- B.
  
  What have you done?
- C.
  
  Where are you?
- D.
  
  Why did you disobey Me?
Correct Answer
C. Where are you?

Explanation
Then the Lord God called to the man and said to Him, "Where are you?" Genesis 3:9 This question can be interpreted, 'Where are you in relation to God'? God desires fellowship with us but our sin separates us from him. Adam and Eve had sinned and broken the relationship. God wants us to come home. A question we can ask is - Why didn't Adam and Eve just trust what God had told them and not eat from the tree? Instead they believed a lie. What other lies do we believe about God? Why don't we trust that He knows more than we do and has our best interests at heart?

- A.
  
  Adultery
- B.
  
  Jealousy
- C.
  
  Sin
- D.
  
  Lying
Correct Answer
C. Sin

Explanation
Cain killed Abel after God rejected his offering but accepted Abel's. Cain was angry about this and rather than admit that he was wrong - admit that he had not worshipped God correctly - he killed his brother. God had warned him that he should "do well" and if he didn't sin would master him. Sin is a word that we don't like but it is basically "missing the mark". God has set a standard of right living and when we don't "do well" we are sinners. Genesis 4: 1-11
