Genesis 3:4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
God would have us understand that satan is not a fool for he has been in business much longer than we have been alive, and he’s learned by experience that, in order to have evil entrenched, it will have to first be introduced with some good benefits. And thus, armed with stratagem and many years of experience, he succeeded in getting Ganja to move from an illegal substance, to being medicinal and on to being recreational, and from there, it can now be found in candies, ice creams, drinks, chewables, and basically in any form one can dream or think of.
How did it make such a quick transition from having medicinal benefit, to being distributed in candies or milk shakes? The answer is to be found in strategies employed by the forces of darkness in the battle for our minds.
Amongst devils, it is a well-documented and proven fact, that if something has good and evil intertwined in it, the human agent will inevitably, and eventually gravitate more toward the evil, rather than the good and hence the reason why, in order to get his foot in the door the good is most often trumpeted up front.
Genesis 3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
