 Exploration may be Good and it may be Evil .
<p>
The first Explorer was a man:
<dir>
Adam
</dir>
He explored Eden and Creator God as he walked with Him in the cool of the day.
<p>
The second Explorer was a woman:
<dir>
Eve
</dir>
She Explored disobedience and the effects of the forbidden fruit.
<p>
So, in the first and second Explorers we see both Good Exploration and Evil Exploration characterized .  What made one Good and the other Evil ?
<p>
Adam`s Exploration of Eden was Good because it was a Gift from God .  His Exploration of God in Fellowshipping with Him was Good because God made Himself available to Adam.
<p>
Eve`s Exploration of the forbidden fruit was Evil because it transgressed God`s law.  It was an act of rejection of God`s Authority and overshadowing Love .
<p>
We live in a society today which values Exploration but rejects God`s Authority and direction .  
<p>
We Explore the universe looking for other life while ignoring the Life that comes through the NewBirth .  Jesus said that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.  This is where God and the angels are.  He wanted to bring us into that Kingdom . It is a Spiritual Kingdom that is accessible to us today through HolySpirit .
<p>
We Explore Science and Physical Laws while ignoring the Law giver.  Lifestyles such as LGBTQ are Explored from the perspective that it is a matter of Choice . To some extent that is correct.  Just as God gave Eve the right to Explore the forbidden fruit so does every human have the right to reject Good and accept Evil .  
<p>
Murder of unborn children, Abortion , has been legitimized.  That is society`s right.  However, God`s law is still in effect.  So, this Exploration into human rights is Evil .
<p>
Since humans are inherently ( Created that way) curious and want to Explore , what is the appropriate application of this desire?
<p>
Let`s go back to Adam.  He Explored Eden as a Gift from God - the physical creation and the laws that govern it.  He Explored God - His Fellowship , His Love . His Provision .  
<p>
God`s Will is that we Explore Him.  
<p>
His Gifts to us tell us about Him. These Gifts are physical and more importantly, Spiritual .  God is a Spirit and those who would appreciate Him must experience Him in a Spiritual way based on His Word which is Truth .
<p>
Eve exercised her right to Explore <u>outside of God </u> .  The result of that Exploration was Death - Spiritual Death and eventually physical Death .
<p>
The Amazing Gift and Love of God - Jesus Christ - is to be our Life .  All Exploration outside of Him is as Solomon said: vanity - emptiness.  HolySpirit is Jesus in us .  The Love , Character and Power of God has been given to us to Explore .
<p>
May God help us to Worship (value) Him in Spirit and in Truth .  In Him we find the answer to all our questions, all of our needs.  More importantly we are home .
