Preach My Gospel, Lesson 2, Heading 3 “Agency and the Fall of Adam and Eve”
Agency and the Fall of Adam and Eve
Preparation:
Get out pictures from GAK, 100 and 101. Available onlinehereandhere.  Also, if you’d like you could prepare a chart for before and after the fall. My husband didthis by drawing a T—then on the left we listed what it was like for them in the Garden of Eden, and on the right what it was like after the Fall.
 
~ Adam and Eve were created in God’s image (see Genesis 1:26-27).
Heavenly Father created Adam and Eve in his own image. This means that theyand their children (including us) look like him. We have feet, hands, ears, eyes,nose… like he does!
~ In the Garden of Eden they were innocent and lived in God’s presence.
Adam and Eve lived first in the Garden of Eden. [show 1
st

 Agency
is the ability to choose and act for yourself.Did Adam and Eve have agency in the Garden of Eden? (yes)What did they choose to do there? (partake of the fruit of knowledge of good andevil)
~ Because they partook of the forbidden fruit, they were cast out of the garden(see Moses 4:19–31). This is called the Fall.
What happened because they ate the fruit?-They had to leave the Garden of Eden (show 2
nd
picture) and were separatedfrom God-They could make mistakes-They could get sick and get hurt. They would die.-They could learn and become more like Heavenly Father-They could have children
