Please list your answer and tell me what can be done to be more on God's SIDE, rather than trying to be god-like, to turn this distructive cycle around.
(Being "god-like" was the attribute of eating the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden.)

You asked a very good question. The "Fruits of Eden", from what I understand, is referring to sin, which is the "fruit" that is destroying "His world" (God's world). "His world" would refer to this world, the one we live in, the one He created, which was perfect in the beginning. However, a wicked deception, a lie, tricked our first parents, Adam and Eve, into disobeying God, and eating the fruit of the forbidden tree. Their disobience was the sin that entered God's world. It was this sin that has been with us ever since that has destroyed His world.
To be more on God's side, you simply have to love Him and surrender yourself to Him. Start by praying. Pray every day. Tell God everything about yourself that you can think of. God is waiting, BEGGING for you to talk to Him. He loves you that much. Talk to Him like you would a friend. You will find that you can tell God things you can't tell anyone else. He is the one friend, the one Father that will love you and be with you your whole life.
Go to church. Whatever your denomination, Catholic, Baptist, whatever, practice your faith. I, myself, and a former protestant and converted to the Catholic faith. Any questions you have I'd be glad to answer.
Only God can save this world from the Fruit of Eden. We are all sinners, and there is nothing we can do to change that, except to call on our Father in heaven. Buddy-up with God, and you'll have a friend, a father, like no one else you've ever known.
God bless,
Danny

There is no turning it around. All we can do is the best we can do. Once Adam and Eve became mortal and left the Garden of Eden, The earth started on it's life's journey, just as we do. Once we are born, it is the beginning of our mortal death. So it is with the earth. God's great plan will be as it is planned.

read His word [Bible] read the new testament first
sin is the reason came in by Adam who sin in the garden of Eden
for Adam and eve was cast out of Eden their children was born outside of the garden
for the Fruit u talk about is not of the garden
the tree of knowledge you are looking for is the Bible God word

well looky there Bob, I don't think Weasel Boy likes you very much! or understands...
The moral of the story is, to seek your own truth and knowledge is a sin. Have you questioned authority lately? Knowledge was forbidden, so sit down, shut up and do what the good sister told ya to do! You ask too many questions and she's getting a headache!
If you want back on his good side, stop thinkin' & do what they tell ya to do. And for God's sake, don't seek anymore knowledge!
I'm gonna go blow up $#!^ now.
Blessed Be...

I normally turn to prayer to change things in my life or in the city where i live. The fruit had no power God said dont eat it but the liar tricked them into eating, this opend the door to sin and spiritual death as they where spiritualy alive b4.
if someone is born again then they are to display the charikta of jesus, as it says in the word as He is now so are we in this world.

If you would take a quick look around you, and see how we are using our knowledge, you would understand. It isn't so much that God doesn't want us to have knowledge, as it is that He wanted us to be mature enough to handle it. In the same way, if you are a good parent, you will not give your three year old a loaded pistol.

We can try to do what Jesus would do in our everyday life situations by LOVING others. Of course we will never be perfect so we will never be even as close to be as perfect as God is. If someone says they are God and is arrogant then they are thinking they are God which is very bad.

Who told you all this nonsense about God creating the world, and about it being HIS world? Somebody has sold you a bill of goods and you fell for it.

Free will. If God cannot intervene in the affairs of men, we are truly on our own.
