Why Back to Eden?
The name of this classic book indicates what needs to happen in the Body of Christ for such a time as this! The Body of Christ has strayed so far from what Father GOD intended from ‘The Beginning’ for everyday lifestyle choices. For example, to be fruitful, multiply, replenish and have dominion in the earth – care for the environment, produce real food, use His original medicine, operate from a place of rest, move our bodies through daily physical activity and relate to Him, self and others. (Genesis 1:26-29; Genesis 2: verses 2, 8-9, 15-17 as well as other scriptures in the Old & New Testament)
Where in the world is the Body of Christ today?
Back to Eden is in the Kingdom of GOD on earth and requires an entirely different LIFEstyle than what is dominating the world systems today. Back to Eden is the opposite of things readily embraced now because of tradition/familiarity, convenience/ease, cheap prices/low cost and most of all, the lack of knowledge/understanding.
What is the process to see Back to Eden manifest?
Awareness > Acceptance > Action > Results > Sharing
In general, the shift must happen in the mindset first – Awareness and Acceptance – before anything can happen for anyone personally or as a unit – Action, Results and Sharing.
Be sure of this, Back to Eden is already happening for many people in different ways and at various levels, even though it may not be recognized as or called Back to Eden. (An example of a gardening project that has been successfully shared as an instructional film, Back to Eden Film, https://www.backtoedenfilm.com/ can be viewed here. Of course, this type of gardening may not work for everyone but some variation of it can be used.)
