    Consequences of knowing Part 2.

    Note: Nakedness in the scripture often implies sin exposed.

    I believe the consequences of Adam and Eve eating of the tree of ( knowledge of "Good and Evil") is them "knowing" they were naked which suggest they were naked before they ate of the fruit. " The tree of knowledge of good and evil caused Their eyes to be open and they knew they were Naked/Sin exposed.

    Here you have a picture of man attempting to clothe himself. Christ was ordained to come into the world before the foundation of the world to provide a covering with his righteousness.

    That's what the skins foreshadow,

    Immediately after God pronounce the curse he Made them skins.

    Genesis 3:21-22. Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them.

    And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:

    GOD BLESS.

    Hi Richard.

    Part 1.

    I personal believe they are, I believe they're saved by the same means as everyone else. Faith in the sacrificial lamb our Lord Jesus Christ. I believe the skins provided by the Lord himself speaks of that. The Lord speaks to us by Allegories, similitudes, ect.. And we know they brought sacrifices to the lord and all these sacrifices pointed to the Lord .

    Genesis 4:4. And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering: " This was asked of them" As I will attempt to bring forward with more scripture.

    Hebrews 11:4. ( BY FAITH ) Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. "We know faith comes by hearing". Romans 10-17. So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

    Christ was foreordained to come into the world to make remission for sins before the world begun.

    And before Adam and Eve sinned.

    Ephesians 1:4.

    1 Peter 1:20.

    Titus 1:1-3.

    While we are on this topic conjectural view I have.

    Look what happens immediately after they have bitten of the tree of knowledge.

    Genesis 3:7. And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

    "It seems them knowing they were naked was the main reason to keep them from eating on the tree of knowledge."

    The tree of knowledge was the focal point before they ate, Them knowing they were naked is the focal point afterwards.

    And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?

    And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was "naked;" and I hid myself.

    And he said, Who told thee that thou wast "naked?" Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?

    Part 2.

    Consequences of knowing.

    GOD BLESS.
  • Adam and Eve39s Fall - In Reply - 5 years ago
    Genesis

    Chapter 3

    1 Now the serpent was more subtil (deceitful) than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, HATH GOD SAID, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden???

    2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:

    3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, GOD HATH SAID, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

    4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: (HE LIED)

    5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

    SATAN WAS AFTER ADAM'S MANDATE. "As First Adam."

    Comment: Satan caused pride to raise its head. Eve desired to be like God. Adam loved Eve very much: they were One. He ate too, but not for the same reason.

    Adam lost the Mandate. In Genesis 3:15 we see that in the process of many generations, Jesus would be born. The Son of Man. He was 2nd Adam.

    On the day Jesus was crucified, HE TOOK BACK THE DEED TO THE EARTH. He Took captivity Captive, and took the keys of death, hell and the grave away from Satan. He completed the first Covenant. He RATIFIED THE 2nd Covenant with HIS OWN SINLESS BLOOD. He made us eligible to be born again. We have to ask for it.

    As we see with Adam and Eve: Satan does not have power over us, unless we give it to him. Only the blood of Jesus can give us the power to resist sin. How? By being Born Again. John 3

    And John 17.

  • Chris - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 5 years ago
    Thank you once again for your comments, brother Leon. I generally understand & agree with your comments, but if I could direct you to what you wrote: "Following his fall, the adversary was relegated to the position of tempter. Just as he tempted Christ, he was only allowed in the garden to tempt Eve, who was then used to test Adam's loyalty to God."

    I believe we have a problem here: Satan's fall is alluded to in Isaiah 14:12-15 & Ezekiel 28:12-19. And then we have Job 1:6,7. So the questions that arise are: at what point was Satan cast down to the Earth & were there two castings down? One, which caused Genesis 1:2 & another that brought on Genesis 3:1-15? For, if the first beautiful Earth was corrupted by reason of Satan's involvement, then where did he go between the first & second creations of Earth, since he lost his position in Heaven, no doubt?

    Does Satan's "walking to & fro in the Earth & walking up & down in it" apply to the second creation of Earth, where we find him all over the Earth, including Eden, & then again some years later during the lifetime of Job? If that's the case, then he being wholly evil, walking all over this globe, causing mankind's fall & causing Job his ultimate test, surely must indicate that such evil must breed evil, not only to those tested but to all of 'groaning' creation so affected?

    Therefore, looking at the Scriptures given by the Lord for us to work with, to have a two-Earth belief (once unformed & then reformed), becomes very difficult to acquiesce to, for Satan's position in either world, must mean a corruption of that world; i.e. if Satan was the reason for the first deformation, the reformation of the second must be likewise affected. Or, if God cleaned up the first then why permit Satan to be around to also affect the second? To be around again, just to test mankind's fidelity to Him, seems a weak reason in light of the extent of damage that was in Satan's power. The Lord be with you.
  • FIRST ADAM AND SECOND ADAM - 5 years ago
    [Adam gave his mandate over to Satan when he and Eve ate of the fruit of the Tree of Life.]

    God spoke of the Word to become flesh in the future: Genesis 3:15

    "And I will put enmity between thee (Satan), and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it (Jesus Christ) shall bruise thy head (Satans legal power), and thou shalt bruise his heel. (the nail through Jesus's feet)."

    When Jesus died for the sins of all mankind on the Cross, he fulfilled the Old Covenant, and ratified the New Covenant, with his blood sacrifice as the Lamb of God. Satan didn't know that, or he would have prevented it.

    Jesus was resurrected on the 3rd Day. Satan was stripped of the power he had stolen from First Adam. Second Adam is Jesus. Satan has no authority over Gods born again children. Only what we give him by sinning and not asking to be forgiven. 1 John.

    Jesus descended into hell's prisons, took the KEYS of Death, Hell and the Grave; out of Satans hand. Then Jesus emptied the prison.

    The Godhead (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) live outside of Time; and they Live inside of Time.

    "In Beginning," ( Gen. 1:1) is when God began the ticking of Time.

    We might crab at God, "Why did YOU let this disaster happen?! God has a will, He gave free will to mankind to use for good or evil. As a Created being, Satan has an evil will. He does all the things we blame God for. Isaiah 14:12-16

    We all need to remember that. Be wary and pray daily to God: Thy Will Be Done.

    In Job, we see that Satan attacked Job's family first. He stirred up an F-5 tornado against them. Let's be informed "who" is responsible for what.

    God is Love, God is Good. He has made all Provision for us. He even gave His only begotten Son, so that we may live eternally, IF we accept Jesus as Savior and Lord? Take your SELF off the throne of your heart; and ask Jesus to be the Lord of your Life. Be conscious of WHO has your best interests at heart.

  • OSEAS - 5 years ago
    Genesis 3:v.1-4

    Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

    2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:

    3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

    4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:

    Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Proverbs 18:v.21

    When the Devil speaks, his speech is accompanied by the death, or death comes together his speech simultaneously. Why? Because the Devil's speech changes the course of the nature, as is written in James 3:v.6-8:

    6 The tongue is a FIRE, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on FIRE of HELL.

    7 For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:

    8 But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

    Romans 3:v.13-14

    13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

    14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

    2 Corinthians 11:v.13-15

    13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

    14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

    15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers (MINISTERS of Satan) also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

    NOTE:

    There will be two powerful Beasts in near future: The ancient Beast of sea-the Papacy-, and the Beast of earth(Israel) with two horns like a lamb(false lamb/false messiah), and he spake as Dragon.
  • Hollywood and REAL LIFE - In Reply on Exodus 14 - 5 years ago
    I actually enjoy what the Bible says about that time; over Hollywood's depiction.

    When I watched the passion of the Christ. I had to pray. I knew Jesus was whipped with cruel weapons, and boxed, had really long thorns driven into his skull. The stripped his clothing off. The blood on his back would've been congealed on the fabric.

    Mel Gibsons, The Passion of the Christ, is beyond most humans comprehension of unbridled violence. Someone once said that the crowd that screamed for Jesus to be crucified, had become a Demon.

    The Bible says Satan was a created archangel. 4th in line to Gods Throne, because he was a covering cherub. Lower angels were called, sons of God (little "s") All satan was intent on was killing the Son of God. That war is shown in the book of Revelation.

    So..that movie shows how strong Jesus is. HE IS THE SON OF GOD. There could be no other outcome: victory complete. Satan thought he could beat and kill Jesus. Genesis 3:15 should've alerted Satan that he would lose the war. What do you think? Pride blinded Satan back in Genesis.

    He will lose. He's going to inflate the Antichrist with so much poison, that millions of people will be murdered. We do need to pray daily for the Peace of Jerusalem; as Jesus requested. They are going to endure 3 1/2 years of inhuman treatment. Some people are going survive to the end of the Tribulation.

    I pray that our praise of Jesus would rise above what "we usually do". We have to understand that Satan (ex-archangel in charge of praise and worship) DOES NOT WANT US TO PRAISE JESUS.

    That's why politicians in the Nations capital are so dead set on making it illegal to sing inside of Church. Legislate that Churches cannot be too big. Want the Christians to wear masks anyway because of the air we expel.

    What about the VENOM they expel? We need to take a look at our Congress through new eyes.

    Truly we are seeing the final moments of mankind as we knew it; and the emergence of evil.
  • The Terminal Generation of CHOiCE - In Reply on John 5:26 - 5 years ago
    I had to read Genesis really slow to pick up on more information.

    God made them in His image and likeness. He gave them free will to make choices.

    At that time they were spiritually alive, with soul and flesh. Eve could've obeyed God and Not eat the fruit, but she did anyway (her choice). She gave it to Adam (his choice).

    God had set time in motion when He said, IN BEGINNING. By Genesis 3:15, Adam had lost his mandate by then. That verse shows the mandate had passed onto Jesus at a future time.

    Time and Genealogy had to tick along until Jesus came to earth and was born.

    As 2nd Adam, Jesus fulfilled the mandate on the Cross by dying for the sins of all mankind. He crushed Satan's head (power).

    Satan was a Created Angel; and he has an evil will. He craved Gods glory and still thinks he can win by destroying everything and everyone God loves.

    We still have Free Will. We can choose to follow God and his Son Jesus; or follow Satan; or wander off till we die and must await the Great White Throne Judgment that God will officiate. Everyone at that judgement will understand that they chose (free will) hell, by not choosing anything at all.

    Romans 1, says that we are without excuse by not perceiving the reality of God. We didn't choose God. We made up excuses. Our choices determine our eternal location:

    Heaven or Hell.

    Nowadays, everyone screams for CHOICES. Well God gave us that right. We can choose everything EXCEPT God and find our conscious souls, eternally locked up with an insane creature that Hates God and people who chose nothing and ended locked up with Satan. No paradise, no Abrahams Bosom, just eternal suffering.

    Time is almost up. Matthew 24 is coming to life. We see the signs everywhere. Pestilence means Pandemic, in 2021. Memorize those SIGNS.

    There's a link out on the red link page, that says, Become A Christian.

    Time is ticking down to zero. Act on your choice.

  • David on Mark 10:9 - 5 years ago
    Hey Robert,

    Great questions and they are not irrelevant. Asking is good, it is the motive that may not be good. Many questions asked by the scribes and Pharisees were to try and trap Jesus and not to learn the truth.

    Those who died before Jesus' death on the cross, were saved because of their faith in the coming messiah. Romans 4: 3-5, Genesis 3:15, Isaiah 11: 1-3. We look back to the cross, those before us looked forward to the cross.

    Those who believe in the Messiah, the Christ will be at the Bema Seat of Christ, 1 Corinthians 3:11-16, Acts 4:10-12

    God has always had a way for people of all ages to be saved. Ps 19; Luke 16:27-31

    To see an easy to read chart.

    You can see the error in the way they said Joseph is the father: not Step-father, not body father.

    This is how the Godhead chose to record this in the Bible.

    You are skipping over the ANGEL that was sent to both Joseph and Mary; to Announce the Prophesy that was being fulfilled. Again later to warn Joseph to take Mary and Jesus to Egypt till Herod died. The Angel also prophesied to Elizabeth.

    Consider all the available information before you make assumptions concerning THE HOLY BLOODLINE of Jesus Christ.

    Insider the Prophesy way way back in Genesis 3:15. "IT" in that verse is the name of Jesus Christ. Romans 16:20, Hebrews 2:14, 1 John 3:8

    The Rock we stand on is Jesus, the Word of God.

    The rocks we fall over and hurt ourselves on, are lies or misunderstood truth. Always search the prophesies recorded in the Bible.

    If your Bible DOES NOT have 'center of each page' reference columns; get one. (Not side or bottom columns). It points you to those prophetic statements.

    1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily opposes us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

    2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who FOR THE JOY that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

    3 For consider him (Jesus) that endured such

    contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

    As a person of the Godhead ( Romans 1), the plan was already decided amongst them. Adam sinned and Jesus stepped in to become 2nd Adam. See Genesis 3:15.

    This is how we know we can have great confidence in God, through Jesus Christ. He is worthy of our thanks, praise and honor. Salvation is a gift. A gift we have to receive.

  • The Tree of Life - In Reply on Genesis 4 - 5 years ago
    Genesis 3:21

    "Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them."

    In order to make clothing for Adam and Eve, God had to kill an animal, shed it's blood; to make clothes for them.

    Because they sinned, their spiritual connection to God was severed. They were flesh and soul. The were prevented from eating of the TREE OF LIFE. If they had, they would've lived eternally in sin.

    We see that the TREE OF LIFE was moved to heaven, in the Book of Revelation.

    Mankind has lived throughout history, with the knowledge of good and evil; or sin, and separation from God.

    Revelation 2:7

    He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of TREE OF LIFE, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.

    Revelation 22:2

    In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the TREE OF LIFE, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

    Revelation 22:14

    Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the TREE OF LIFE, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

    In Revelation, the tree of life represents the restoration of the life-giving presence of God. Restored access to the tree of life was made possible by "the second Adam" ( 1 Corinthians 15:44-49), Jesus Christ, who died on the cross for the sins of all humanity.

    To establish the New Covenant that had better promises.

    To take authority away from Satan that he gained by the fall, of Adam and Eve.

    Genesis 3:15. Prophesy

    And I will put enmity between thee (Satan) and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it (Jesus) shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

    Satan is brain damaged. If he had believed that prophesy, he would NOT have stirred up the Chief Priests and Pharisees, to have Jesus crucified on the Cross. He was simply enjoying the suffering of the Son of God. He knew Jesus was the Son, when He tempted Jesus (Jesus fasted 40 days and nights in the desert).

    He truly believed that when Jesus died and was put into the tomb, that he had seen the last of Jesus: the dead Son of God. That is the part of the Prophesy where God says Satan would bruise Jesus's heel.

    Satan didn't know Jesus would be Resurrected. If he did, he wouldn't have let It happen.

    Jesus ratified THE NEW COVENANT, with His own sinless, holy BLOOD. Inside the Temple, when Jesus died, THE VEIL was torn down the middle: Top to Bottom. No human could've done that because the veil was massive in size. That was Jesus saying, THE OLD COVENANT is FINISHED. COMPLETED.

    The NEW COVENANT is now IN FORCE

    Imagine Satan realizing what had happened. He had been stripped of all his power and AUTHORITY. He no longer had permission to trouble mankind; cause deaths. Hold people's souls in prison. First thing Jesus did was go down to hell and set all the prisoners FREE.

    When we accept Jesus to be our own Personal, LORD and SAVIOR: we pass from the sentence of death, into ETERNAL LIFE. We worship Jesus for accomplishing that on our behalf. We can never be good enough to EARN it.

    That's why we sing, NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD OF JESUS, in church, at home, in the car, in front of our kids, everywhere!

    If you haven't done it yet, give your life to Jesus: and He will give His Life to you! Forever.

    Hi Richard,

    I agree there is a hell. I believe it because the bible says it!

    To teach otherwise can be dangerous, It sounds similar to Satan discrediting Gods word when Satan deceived Eve.

    "And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:" Genesis 3:4.

    And here's scriptural proof they don't just cease from existing.

    1st of all the resurrection, and the term we know as the 2nd death.

    Acts 24:15. And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a RESURRECTION of the dead, ( both of the just and UNJUST. )

    What's the point in raising the unjust just to send them right back to the grave?

    Matthew 25:41, 46 (KJV) Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:...42..43..44..

    ...And these shall go away into EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT:

    but the righteous into life eternal.

    Hell was created for the devil and his angels but his children will go there also, and to take note,

    YOU CAN'T WEEP AND NASH TEETH IF YOU NO LONGER EXIST, NEITHER CAN YOU ENDURE EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT.

    Matthew 13:42-43. AND SHALL CAST THEM INTO A FURNACE OF FIRE: ""THERE SHALL BE WAILING AND GNASHING OF TEETH.

    Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father.

    Revelation 20:14-15. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the Second death.

    And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the LAKE OF FIRE.

    HERE IT SEEMS TO BE A RELOCATION, AND DEATH ( AND HELL IS CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE!! )

    When the restrainer is taken out of the way

    ( Thes 2:7 )

    you see how evil men really is. War against God ect.

    Revelation 16:9. And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.

    They'll be just like their father the Devil.

    No repentance. Forever tormented.

    The scripture is clear.

    Genesis 3:15

    "And I will put enmity between thee (Satan) and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it (Jesus) shall bruise thy head (power), and thou (Satan) shalt bruise his heel."

    Satan won the power to inflict suffering on mankind when Eve was tempted to rebel against God and take a bite from the Tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

    Both Trees were protected from that day forward, until the Cross of Christ. Tree of Life is one of Jesus's names; as in meaning, eternal life, through Him.

    The nail through Jesus's feet, was the fulfillment of the prophesy. Satans power and authority over mankind's sin was over. All he has left is Lies, to cause us to rebel against the Truth of what Jesus accomplished. (Satan is the FATHER of LIES)

    During the 3 days Jesus's body was in the tomb, Jesus descended in Hell to lead captivity, captive. He set those prisoners free. By doing so, he proclaimed His Victory over spiritual death, hell and the grave.

    We need to have complete confidence in what Jesus accomplished. The power of Gods love and acceptance of us (gentile or Jew), reigns supreme.

    Our lives are bombarded every single day by Satans lies. Each lie is crafted to make us fall into "APOSTACY." He uses any media or voice available to accomplish the LIES. Like... don't leave the house, go to church: you might get Covid. It's cheating time for the devil. Are we aware of that? Satan cheats us out of our lives by trickery with Lies. Start telling Satan his destiny is the LAKE OF FIRE, every time he tempts you

    Pray that no one you know falls into Apostacy! Find out what that is, and begin warning those you love. Do it in the spirit of Love. All preachers of righteousness need to reveal the lies of Satan that seek to destroy our love for our Savior, Jesus. Teach relationship; not Religion.

    We're not called to be a generation of "John the Baptist's." We are called to the Ministry of Reconciliation. Be reconciled to God.

    Mishael
