Genesis 2:8
God Planted a Garden
8 Now the LORD God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed.
John 15:1
God is a Gardener
1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.
Luke 5:32
Jesus Came for Sinners
32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance
In Genesis we learn that God created the heavens and the earth...Then we learn more about Him...In our very first lessons on God, we are introduced to God and read that He is a gardener...He planted a garden in Eden...This is the place where the first man and woman would live...The place was not not only a home, but also a garden...The Garden of Eden was the home for Adam and Even...The beauty of the Garden of Eden can only be imagined...
Jesus agrees when He says that He is the True Vine, and His Father, God, is the Gardener...A Gardener who is not afraid to get His hands dirty and help those who are lost, to help those who sin...In fact, that is one of the reasons Jesus came to earth was to call on sinners to repent and to follow Him...
