Tuesday, November 7

Be fruitful and become many, fill the earth and subdue it.—Gen. 1:28.

 

Adam and Eve were to have children and take good care of their earthly home. If they had obediently cooperated with Jehovah’s purpose for them, Adam and Eve and their offspring would have remained members of God’s family forever. Adam and Eve had an honorable place in Jehovah’s family. As recorded at Psalm 8:5 and footnote, David said this about Jehovah’s creation of man: “You made him a little lower than angels, and you crowned him with glory and splendor.” True, humans were not given the same power, intelligence, and abilities as the angels. (Ps. 103:20) Yet, mankind is only “a little lower” than those mighty spirit creatures. Sadly, Adam and Eve lost their place in Jehovah’s family. This has had disastrous consequences for their descendants. But Jehovah’s purpose has not changed. He wants obedient humans to be his children forever. w21.08 2-3 ¶2-4

You can't walk with God while holding hands with the Devil.
