IT JUST SEEMS RIGHT.

Genesis 2:

15 The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.
16 And the LORD God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden;
17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die."
18 The LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him."
19 Now the LORD God had formed out of the ground all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name.
20 So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds of the air and all the beasts of the field. But for Adam no suitable helper was found.
21 So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and closed up the place with flesh.
22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.

It just seems to flow, no probability theories, no evolutionary “science”, it makes sense. Man was brought into a garden paradise that was prepared for him with all that was needed for life.
(scientists call it the “Pre-Cambrian” explosion, a biological “Big Bang”, where one day there was nothing, and the next, the world was full of life. Scientists are also afraid to acknowledge what we already know to be true. God spoke it into existence)

Then God, in His infinite wisdom, created in the garden a suitable helper. I love that translation, suitable helper, kinda like Alfred in the Batman comics. You know always there with a cup of tea and sage advice.
But suitable helper comes from the Hebrew “Ezer Kenegdo” which literally translates to “Life Saver”.
Now that sounds like what God intended.

Like I said, no theories, no scientific experiments, nothing to get in the way of what God wants for us.
