Gen 3:4-6, Rom 1:21-23, 2 Cor 4:4
In the Old Testament, the evangelist confessed that God gave man a heart to long for eternity. (Ec 3:11)
Ec 3:11 Todo lo hizo hermoso en su tiempo: y aun el mundo dió en su corazón, de tal manera que no alcance el hombre la obra de Dios desde el principio hasta el cabo.
However, Satan persuaded the first man, Adam and Eve, to disobey God's Word and to turn away from God. (Genesis 3:4-6)
Genesis 3:4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. 6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
Even now, Satan is blinding people so that they cannot believe that Jesus is the Christ. (2 Corinthians 4:4)
2 Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
Therefore, people do not seek the true God, but worship idols as God. (Romans 1:21-23)
Romans 1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
