Genesis 2:15-17
New International Version (NIV)
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 from it you will certainly die.”

Genesis 3:1-7
New International Version (NIV)
The Fall
3 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but
God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the
middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. 5 “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.

New Pastor, Rev. Jim Hilton, Begins New Appointment @ Tinney Chapel July 1, 2013
The Hiltons visited Tinney Chapel UMC, the quintessential country church, today, Wednesday, May 22, to visit in person with members of the S/PPR Committee, which they did for about two hours.
Afterwards, Rev. Jim and Mary agreed to make an introductory video to introduce themselves directly to our congregation. This idea originated from S/PPR Chair Cheryl Ann Newton who approached Joe Dan Boyd and asked him to make it happen, after securing approval from Rev. Carl Sterling, current pastor of our church, and from Rev. Dr. Joan LaBarr, current District Superintendent of the North Texas Conference's East District.
This is the video:
