an underdeveloped, unripe, and immature generation that eats in the morning and is easily
offended by the thought of correction or delay. As a result we are birthing weak churches with

demonic plot of Genesis 3:5 is simple --- Empowerment without Process and it is repeating itself
in our generation.
