food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of

the knowledge of good and evil.

Satan’s Powerful Deception

Genesis 3:1-5

“What is wrong is right” “Who is good is evil”

Satan wanted the power of morality

Man’s Right and WrongWoe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, And prudent in their own sight

Jeremiah 23:16

Majority MoralityAll religions are the same

(Equivalency)Right for you may not be right for me

(Relativism)Time changes what is right or wrong (Situation Ethics)

Dealing With “Majority Morality”There is an obvious fault in
