That tree in the center of the garden. To the right is a mango tree, because as I stated I love mango trees. But God places this tree in His perfect garden that gives mankind the opportunity to sin. This wasn't God's way of setting Adam up for failure, but it was God's way of giving Adam the choice to worship God. Worship has always been a choice. God doesn't force mankind to love Him, to follow Him, to worship Him, He gives us a choice. Everyday we face choices where we can choose to worship God or choose to not worship God. When we choose to not worship God this is when we sin. Every time we sin we are separating ourselves from our Creator, we put things between our relationship with Him. I don't know about you, but I don't want anything between me and God, so it kills me when I put things there. This is one of the biggest goals of not sinning in my opinion. First off we shouldn't sin because God commands us not to, but I also don't want to sin because it affects my relationship with Him.
