ok, Dot. I see where you are. It’s not obeying His teachings per se, but following the leading of Holy Spirit.
I know you don’t care much for the Jews, but you actually are thinking like them. Doing the commandments. By hook or by crook by golly.
The new and living way. This is abundant life.
Am not saying be lawless either. We have a love for His Word....who is the person, our Lord Jesus Christ.

in Genesis it says that Adam was with her when she ate.
Gen 3:6 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.
Showing that he knew what he was doing yet he ate anyway. He wasn’t deceived by the serpent.

You’re right, but it was done through faith and prayer. When Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. And I know that you always hear me...“ This is a testament to Jesus‘ faith and the power of prayer. I only seek truth, and if I’m incorrect please tell me.

You have a lovely attitude 
Then he got into the boat and his disciples followed him. Suddenly a furious storm
came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping.
The disciples went and woke him, saying, "LORD, save us! We're going to drown!" He
replied, "You of little faith, why are you so afraid?" Then he got up and rebuked the
winds and the waves, and it was completely calm. The men were amazed and asked,
"What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!" Matthew 8:23-27
A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped.
Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him,
“Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?” He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves,
“Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. He said to his disciples,
"Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?" They were terrified and asked each other,
"Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!" Mark 4:37–41
One day Jesus said to his disciples, "Let us go over to the other side of the lake." So they
got into a boat and set out. As they sailed, he fell asleep. A squall came down on the lake,
so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger. The disciples went and
woke him, saying, "Master, Master, we're going to drown!" He got up and rebuked the wind and
the raging waters; the storm subsided, and all was calm. "Where is your faith?" he asked his
disciples. In fear and amazement they asked one another, "Who is this? He commands even
the winds and the water, and they obey him." Luke 8:22-25
Jesus did ask where their faith was, but the three gospels that portray this
incident say nothing to the effect that Jesus prayed the storm away.

I find it interesting in reading these three accounts that Jesus asked, "Where is your faith?"
He displayed the power of His faith and so they could also witness the power of faith for themselves so they could be encouraged in
what they would be able to do through faith in His name because of His Divinity.
