relationships. The background of the image is dark, drawing more attention to Adam, Eve, the serpent, and the tree. The focus on the main characters in this painting implies the significance of the role that relationships played in the fall. There is barely any space between Adam and Eve in the painting, instead Adam is positioned near Eve and consequently, he is also near the serpent. In this case, although Adam and Eve are close, they are also close to evil. Adam’s hand is on his heart and his…

I always try to make it extra special for everyone involved, and try to at least buy one or two things each that the kids…

and Eve were a superior example of sin and the consequences that follow. No one wants to accept the fact that our actions reflect on our future; for Adam and Eve they ate from the tree, when god caught onto them,F he put a curse on Adam and Eve and all their offspring to come.

In addition, because it is almost Christmas so all the songs are relevant to Christmas. There is a chamber choir of 25 singers and one…
