God had told His children they could eat the fruit of all the trees but one. The angel's question twisted God's words. God knows that when you eat it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like gods, knowing good and evil. God made angels to be servants. They knew about God's plan, and they were supposed to protect His children as they were growing in the realms of heart.
Nothing is of greater value than true love, and nothing causes more pain than when love is betrayed.
Nobody, not even God, can force someone to love them. God had poured all His heart and love into Adam and Eve, and He longed for them to grow up and freely love Him in return. Trees multiply by producing seed-bearing fruit, and human beings multiply through a love relationship. To eat a fruit means to have a sexual relationship. Adam and Eve were supposed to grow in heart one realm at a time.
