What the devil did in the garden with Eve was to turn her against God. He hated God and could not defeat Him, so He went after Eve by turning her against God.
This is often what mankind does not realizing they are being influenced by the devil to hate what God loves.
People gossip to be able to turn others against the person they hate, the devil's tactic!
The devil hated God's goodness, His power and His love for mankind. So he did everything he could to ruin the relationship between God and man.
He does the same thing today when he uses those who hate God to come against those who love God. Sadly, those who say they love God often come against authentic believers for believing God when He speaks from His Word.
Matthew 7:15-17 "15Beware of false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16By their fruit you will recognize them. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit."
What is the fruit of the Spirit of God?
Galatians 5:22-23 "22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law."
