NEVER BEFORE UNDERSTOOD--Why Humanity Cannot Solve Its Evils by Herbert W. Armstrong

A Cause for Every Effect

There has to be a CAUSE for every effect. What was the original CAUSE for all the world’s seemingly insolvable troubles? This CAUSE has been utterly overlooked by modern science. It is unknown in modern higher education. It has been carelessly glossed over by even the traditional Christian religion, and is unknown to other religions.

The CAUSE of all troubles in your life and mine and in the world today originated in the incident of the forbidden fruit in the garden of Eden! It all began with the beginning of MANKIND! And even the true Church of God in this 20th century has not fully understood it until now!

What if Adam had taken of the tree of LIFE? Ever wonder about that?

Ah!—that would have made all the difference! There would have been no national governments today. No military establishments consuming the time of millions of soldiers. No violence. No wars. An entirely different educational system. A different business and commercial world. No tobacco industry. No need for doctors, nurses, hospitals and their staffs to treat today’s host of illnesses. No police forces, jails and prisons. Millions released for more productive, useful occupations. Yes, THINK OF IT! YOU AND I WOULD BE LIVING IN A TOTALLY DIFFERENT WORLD! There would be no universal discontent, unhappiness, frustrated lives. There would be peace everywhere—between nations, groups, families and individuals. Abundance everywhere for joy-packed lives filled with interest, eager anticipation for a wonderful eternity ahead!

Sound impossible? Why should it? There was a CAUSE for existing conditions. There would have been a CAUSE for the happier state!

This matter of basic CAUSES has eluded the knowledge production of man. It has never been understood by modern science. It has not been recognized by education. Religion has remained in ignorance of this mystery of the ages! Yet it has been faithfully recorded and preserved for us who will to UNDERSTAND!

So now look closer at what did happen, what actually caused effects in your life and mine, and what the immediate future now holds for us all.

The turning point in your life began in that forbidden fruit incident! It’s time you UNDERSTAND!
