November 12 –Eve At Michael’s Side Before Creation. Genesis 3:17 “And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life.”

The doctrine of God is that you obey Him, there are no hidden agendas with God and no hidden meanings. Obey. From the fall, the ground became cursed, and worse yet, there came a separation of God and man. They were kicked out of the Garden and an enmity was placed between them. The Mormons would have you believe that this was a glorious event. Nothing could be further from the truth!
Moreover, Eve wasn’t at the side of Michael the Archangel. This doctrine isn’t remotely biblical, and has no place in the life of a true believer!

“The doctrine of Adam is the doctrine of Eve; their mission and purpose are one.”As she was at Michael’s side before the foundations of the earth,” wrote Elder Bruce R. McConkie, “so she came with him into Eden.” Together they performed the mission of the Fall, making the probation of life available to all. Chosen as the first wife and the first mother, her role in the salvation of their posterity is as vital as his. She is Adam’s counterpart and his crown. She is our glorious mother. With Adam she was set at the head to mark the way.” Joseph Fielding McConkie and Robert L. Millet, eds., The Man Adam [Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1990], 85 – 88.
This is one of the most ludicrous things I’ve seen from the LDS!
That’s EXACTLY what I thought as well! I’m still not sure if that’s a strong enough word to use though!
