Exposed: Eve’s relationship deception and you | AWAYION BEAUTY

Hi, Friends!

In biblical accounts, Eve fell prey to deception. She valued forbidden advice from an enemy over her relationship with God. Similarly, you may often fall prey to deception by valuing immoral modern social norms in relationships. This happens because you have a strong desire to be liked. Right?

Deception in relationships leads to heartbreak, illegitimate births, and other negative consequences. It’s pretty intense, right?

So where is the deception in relationships?

Uncover 2 areas where modern ladies experience deception via relationships, in this post. Because every girl in Christ should know how to see deception and avoid it.

Super Awesome Side Note: Before we start, understand we will not claim contested truths. And we will refrain from falling into the trap of “teaching man-made ideas as commands from the Creator.”

Out of respect for believers, we will simply acknowledge the multiplicity of views on this subject (the keyword is “acknowledge” and not agree). That said, this is a non-exhaustive list. So use this list to do further research.

Super Psst… the big secret I’ve been hinting around about on social media for a while now has finally been revealed… (its also why I have been MIA for a bit… and why I would be in the future… hmm.) Read on after this post for the juicy details.

*Disclaimer: These ideas can help you if you use self-control. And these tips could help you if you are a believer in Christ. Also, always do further research. Also, the sources for this or any post do not equal a full endorsement of any ministry or evangelist’s personal views by Awayion.com.***

Sound great? Okay, ladies. Let’s start.

1. Hey Eve! A little sin won’t hurt you, or anyone else, eh?

deceptionEve’s deception has a lasting impact on everyone, both in the past and the future. Even worse, women bear the harsh consequences of Eve’s decision to sin via pain in childbirth, highlighting how seriously our Heavenly Father views sin. Pretty intense, right?

“How was Eve deceived?” you ask.

The serpent deceived Eve in the Garden of Eden through 3 cunning ways. First, he questioned God’s commandment and twisted His words, causing doubt in Eve’s mind. This made Eve question the goodness and truth of God’s instructions. Second, the serpent promised Eve that if she ate the forbidden fruit, she would become like our Creator and know good and evil. This appealed to her pride and curiosity, making her believe that disobedience would elevate her status. Lastly, the serpent presented the forbidden fruit as desirable and pleasing to the eyes. This appealed to Eve’s senses and created a longing within her. Through these manipulative tactics, the serpent successfully deceived Eve, leading to the fall of humanity. Her sin hurt everyone!

But, a little sin doesn’t hurt, right? (Sarcasm)

Deception causing the fall of mankind: Eve destroyed her covenant relationship with our Creator by valuing the immoral advice from the enemy (a non-friend) over her relationship with God.

2. Deception 1: When a Christian couple sins sexually — by Marshall Segal

According to the historical teachings of the Bible, sex is reserved for marriage. The Bible defines sex as sin (fornication / adultery) if committed outside of marriage. Our Creator intended sex to be a positive experience that fosters intimacy between a husband and wife.

In today’s modern world, young women are frequently told that having sex with men who are not their husbands is acceptable. These ladies may question how this might damage their relationships, as it appears to be a natural choice. It’s just a minor sin. (Sarcasm) Everyone is doing it, right? (Sarcasm)

Well, there are believing men & women who feel trapped in a dating relationship, even if it’s not healthy, particularly after engaging in sexual sin (Segal, 2024). Perhaps you’re familiar with such a relationship or you’re currently in one. Why is it difficult to end unhealthy dating relationships, particularly when a couple has sinned sexually? Could it be deception? Are you deceived?

Author Marshall Segal provides an in-depth post where you can learn if you have been deceived via sexual sin with your boyfriend. He focuses on how Christian couples should handle sexual sin and emphasizes the consequences, both spiritual and physical, that arise from compromising in this way. He even argues that the man you sin with sexually is NOT your future husband. Gnarly, eh? Check out his post for more information, here.

Deception 1: Believers in sexual sin destroy their relationship with our Creator by valuing the immoral advice from the enemy (believing it’s okay to sin sexually aka being deceived) over their relationship with God. (Just like Eve, eh?)

3. Deception 2: The controversy of being born out of wedlock by Behind the Chair Ministries

deception

Unmarried believing and non-believing couples who engage in sexual sin often have babies born out of wedlock. So, how does the historical biblical accounts consider this as deception, you ask? This is a controversial topic. The historical biblical accounts talks about this deception and how it leads to bondage in the ancient world and the future accursed.

According to the historical biblical text, having a baby out of wedlock is associated with a curse known as the Bastard Curse (See Deuteronomy 23:2). Many people are unaware of this curse that affects the man, woman, and their baby born out of wedlock. Its horrific effects can last for 10 generations.

A biblical account of the horrendous effects of the Bastard Curse can be seen in the historical accounts of King David. King David had an illegitimate child from an adulterous affair (psst… he wasn’t married to the lady, thus placing them under the Bastard Curse), which led to a murder to hide the sin. Unfortunately, the illegitimate child died. As a result of the Bastard Curse, misfortune plagued David’s household – others took his wives and his family experienced incest and rape when Absalom assaulted his sister Tamar. Even David’s own children turned against him and tried to kill him. The Lord, displeased with David’s actions, sent Nathan to confront him about his wrongdoing (Moore, 2021). Gnarly, eh?

Behind the Chair Ministries provides a detailed exploration of this controversial topic. They offer insights on identifying if you have been deceived into having a baby out of wedlock and the harsh consequences. Check out their post for more information, here.

Deception 2: Believers in sexual sin and their baby born out of wedlock fall under the Bastard Curse, via valuing the immoral advice from the enemy (by believing having a baby in sin is okay aka being deceived) over their relationship with God. (Just like Eve, too, eh?)
