What do we know about Adam and Eve?
|
Adam was created from the earth on Day 6.
Even was created from his side. At first, they were not immortal, and they weren't dying. |
|
|
What simple law or command did Adam and Eve have to obey?
|
Not to eat of one particular tree in the Garden of Eden.
Obedience or being self centred was at the heart of the test. |
|
|
What was this act of disobedience called?
|
"Sin" - which means to go off target, and be lawless from God's view point
(I John 3 v 4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law) |
|
|
What was the penalty for mankind of choosing self first morally instead of God?
|
Roman 5 v 12
Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned. Romans 6 v 23 "The wages of sin is death". |
|
|
So could we just not sin, and avoid death?
|
Houston, we have a bias to sin, and that's a problem!
James 1 v 14-16 but every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. Jeremiah 17 v 9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 1 John 2 v 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. |

How do you understand Genesis 3 v 15?
"And I (GOD) will put enmity between thee (SNAKE) and the WOMAN, and between thy seed (SNAKE's OFFSPRING) and her seed (WOMANS OFFSPRING) ; it shall bruise thy head (WOMAN OFFSPRING CRUSHES SERPENT THINKING), and thou shalt bruise his heel.(SNAKE OFFSPRING NON FATAL BLOW to WOMAN OFFSPRING)" |
Christ = "the seed of the woman" who will crush the thinking of snake-like people ("the head").
God then covered Adam and Eve's nakedness (shame, mortal bodies) with a covering from an animal filled with innocence (pure thinking, no sin) who died in that state of no sin - gave its life for God's purpose in covering sin. Pointed to Jesus, "the lamb slain from the foundation of the world" |
