Adam and Eve

Adam and Eve were the first of Heavenly Father’s children to live on earth. They lived in the Garden of Eden.

God let them eat the fruit of every tree but one. If they ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, they would have to leave the garden and would eventually die. But Satan lied to them. He said if they ate the fruit, they would know good from evil but would not die.

God and Jesus Christ visited them, but Adam and Eve were afraid and hid. God asked if they had eaten fruit from the tree.

Adam and Eve said that they ate the fruit. Now they had to leave the Garden of Eden. But God had a plan for them. Now they knew right from wrong and could have children.

Adam and Eve promised to obey God’s commandments. They learned more about God’s Son, Jesus Christ. They were happy because He would help their family return to God.
