Discuss Genesis 3 Page 23

What are you....9 yrs old?

Maybe you're joking or being sarcastic, but for the record just read the Bible. It's clear what the first sin was and that was eating the fruit of the forbidden tree. They were sinless before that. They sinned then were kicked out of the garden. There's no confusion about it.

Truly , Truly ! ! Yes first sin was preaching , Too much preaching and not enough doing ! ! !

sorry don't know [ your mistake ]

easy to name dogs , Right ?

Yes , Adam preached to Eve and that open the door for satin He touched the fruit and he did not die and eve knew what dieing was not breathing , so satin touch and then ate the fruit , and then said YA EAT THIS AND YOU WILL BE JUST LIKE GOD's and we all want to be like HIS SON, a GOD,

Not trying to be disrespectful: I think Adam was busy naming animals and plants and left Eve alone too much. Enough time to contemplate "what happens if I eat this". She had encouragement from The Deceiver.

Adam and Eve were the first marriage. We're to be equally yoked; as a team of horses pulling a cart. That's why they used to say "getting hitched".

As a team, they both suffered loss for the breakdown of Communication!

Adam as the head of the family was supposed to lead Eve into rightness and obedience.

Sorry for that mistake.

Genesis 2:16

"And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:"

Genesis 2:17

"But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die."

correct so adam must have told her that , so he added to GODs WORDs so I believe that was the first sin , adam preaching to eve ,m what you think ?

Admin you posted part 2 but not 1. The comment will be difficult for the recipient to understand context. I hope it wasn't lost.

I think you mean the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Gen 2:17.

Pray to be subtitled like a serpent.

You can't see spirits with your physical eyes.

You can't see spiritual things with your physical eyes. Garden of Eden could be back in heaven.

It's not in the bible. God commanded man not to eat the fruit from the tree of life.

need help

In Genesis 2:16,17.

Na satin was there to lookover adam and his lovely, , but ? where in bible does GOD say Do Not [touch the fruit ]?

Bob Hilt , satin was the first morning star there to be [with] a @ e but , more interesting did GOD say donot touch the fruit can,t find bible , you ?

Genesis 3 the serpent in the garden that tempted Eve.

Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that OLD SERPENT old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

Is the serpent a mere figure of speech?

Was Eve speaking with a beautiful angel as mentioned in Ezekiel?

Ezekiel Chapter 28:15 Thou [wast] perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. (Created, not born)

16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with VIOLENCE violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

(war in heaven Revelation 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,)

17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy BEAUTY beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy BRIGHTNESS brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

2 Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of LIGHT light.

I do not lean towards the talking snake thing personally.

Where is the flaming sword and the Cherubims that protected the Garden

Chris,

Matthew 16:26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Matthew 16: 22-24 It is an offense to the Lord for us to live

according to the soul.

Romans 16:19-20 Be wise about what is good, Innocent about what is evil. 1 Corinthians 13:2 You're nothing without love. 1John 4:8 God is Love.

Sj, do you consider the Tree of the Knowledge of Good & Evil to be a bad tree? I actually see it as a wonderful tree, it had lovely tasty fruit & Adam & Eve wasn't poisoned in the flesh by eating it. However, to be lukewarm as a Christian is of course a sad state to be in & one needs to get back to being right with God. So, how is the connection made between this good tree & a lukewarm/backslidden Christian?

You're right about both trees being in the midst of the garden. I just focused on this chapter.

We can keep from being beguiled by the devil by loving.

1 John 4:8

"He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love

1 Corinthians 13:2

"And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing."

Thank you, I didn't notice that before. Both trees, the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of Good and the knowledge of evil were in the middle of the Garden. I always pictured them as somewhere in the back, sort of out of the way, hidden.

I know what you are saying but I don't think that that has any particular meaning in this case. It is interesting that they would be in the middle and that may have made them easy to find; but apart from that. I don't see any other significant in their location; but in revelations; it specifically refers to the 7 churches I think, each having significant problems, none of them being true believers in Christ and God. They were sort of in the middle of the road; poor teachers; not doing the job that they should have being doing, sort of like the church when Jesus went there

Thanks again, it was very interesting and it is always good to learn I think. I don't know why I thought that they would have been sort of hidden. I don't think that God would hid these trees from man; but I think that He did with the tree of life from Adam after Adam sinned.

The point is middle. The forbidden tree is in the middle of the garden.

To be luke warm is to be in the middle.

To be luke warm is to be on the middle.

It is amazing how short was the time that Adam spent in the Garden before sinning. It was not long at all before he and eve became the first cave people.

I don't understand your comment: I don't think that Gen 3: 3 and Rev 3:6 are related. Gen is at the beginning of creation and revelations is not and 3:6 applies to something else
