1. God said do not eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil neither shall ye TOUCH it. (He demonstrated by touching the fruit, something God didn't mention.)
2. You shall not surely die. (Here he introduced the idea that the soul is immortal by nature, though Adam did not become a living soul until God breathed into his newly constructed body. But Eve is meant to doubt God since touching the fruit didn't kill the snake or, we assume, Eve if she'd handled it already).
3. Finally, he said that if Eve ate the fruit she would be like a god. (There's only one of those, but since Lucifer has already introduced the idea that she isn't going to die and would be immortal after she ate the fruit, it's becomes a much shorter step to believing she could be a god.)
Note the progression. Small lie assumed to be true -> Bigger lie presented as truth -> The Biggest lie he was hoping to sell is believed.You will see evidence of this sort of thing when you find they are saying things about how you think and how you are going to act if you were to get any power yourself that you know are not true.
Satan tactic is to lie, then confuse with a whole web of interconnected lies, blames his failures on his enemies (followers of God), then further claims God's people are doing exactly what his followers are doing. Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" outlines strategies the left uses to manipulate and deceive the proletariat to achieve the aims of collectivist socialist progressivism.)
Beware of these logic bending tactics. People who wish to rule over you will claim they wish to make your life better. They justify their deceptions because they have your best interest in heart. They mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They intend to be good masters, but make no mistake about it, they mean to be masters.
