    Ge.3:1-5

    "Coming short of the glory"

    God blessed man on the sixth day (Ge.1:28-30). The everlasting covenant has been signed and sealed between God and Man,the Spirit annotates the abstract "and, behold, it was very good"-1:31). Those who still would not enter theerin and be part of the day sanctified is marked by 666. He is, to all intent and purpose, the son of perdition.

    We have been studying in these two chapters how God placed Adam in the Garden planted by Him.

    He did not need anyone telling him with regards to the commandment.

    Now this advise from the serpent,"And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die."(v.4)

    Evil communication corrupts good manners and it is what happening with Eve. As flesh and boned drawn from the man she was in the full know being a living soul herself. What he was, she was in her own right as the Bride. "At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you."( John 14:20) This is what the Spirit referred " and they shall be one flesh."

    In going along with his gratuitous remark she looks at the forbidden fruit and she sees it as he wanted her to see. In order to guard aginst ii the Spirit gives us this recipe. "For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light."(Ps.36:9)

    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:

    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.
