The Westminster Larger Catechism (modern version by the EPC):
Q. 20. What was God’s providence
relating to the humans he created?
A. God providentially put Adam and Eve in paradise and assigned them
the job of taking care of it. He gave them permission to eat everything that
grew, put them in authority over all the creatures, and established marriage as
a help for Adam. God allowed them to have fellowship with him, instituted the
Sabbath, and made a covenant of life with them on the condition of their
personal, perfect, and perpetual obedience. The tree of life was a sign
guaranteeing this covenant. Finally, God told them not to eat from the tree of
knowledge of good and evil or they would die.
