1 | Again, was Adam there? | Gen 3:6 | Robert Nicholson | 27968 | ||
In Gen. 3:6 it would appear that Adam was not with Eve when she was tempted by the serpent. The seductive conversation in which the serpent questioned the Word of God by using part truths occured between Eve and the Serpent. In addition in Gen.3:12 when the Lord asked Adam "What hast thou done" Adam blamed the woman not the serpent. Have you given any thought to the love which Adam had for his wife. He was not seduced by satan, but willing took of that which would bring him spiritual death to God. In fact, it is Adam not Eve who is cited in Romans 5:23 as the one whereby sin entered the world. This reminds me of the love that the Lord Jesus had for the church in that he willing partook of the awful death of the Cross, knowing full well the cost and yet he turned not back and offered himself as a sacrifice for our sins thereby satisfying a Holy God. Through his death he has removed the separation which was ours by sin and has brought us to himself by his precious blood. Seasons greetings in his precious Name. Robert |

2 | Again, was Adam there? | Gen 3:6 | CDBJ | 27977 | ||
Greetings Robert, there are quit a few on this forum that I don't feel a kindred spirit with but by reading your comments I can feel the presents of the Lord in what you say. I read you personal profile and it matches my own to a degree. My wife and I were about 29 years with out a home church. I studied under a pastor teacher from Huston Texas. He communicates through Hebrew and Greek using what he calls the ICE principal of teaching, isagogics, categorical, and exegesis. In your post you mentioned how Christ withstood death on the cross for us. All we can say, as the song goes is, Hallelujah what a Savior! It is interesting to note, and especially today, that the basis of what we believe compared to the religions of the world, is summed up in what Jesus said in John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. This statement isn't really understood by a lot of so-called believers. This always comes to my attention around Christmas time. God, loving the human race as much as he does, cannot jeopardize His perfect Holiness by just excusing sin. His perfect justice say that sin must be punished and that this punishment is separation from Him; man sinned so man would have to pay the price for sin. God decided in eternity past just exactly what He would do to resolve the problem. Every man born into the human race came from the seed of Adam, thus having Adams old sin nature. There has never been a man on the face of the earth that could be an innocent sacrifice for the human race. That is where God decided to take on the form of a man and pay the price that He, God demanded for the sin of the world. He himself would pay the price once and for all, for all mankind. The only thing left for us to do is trust in God's gift to us, Himself, in the person of Jesus the sacrifice of God. I know that you understand this and believe it but I thought I would use this opportunity to say it to the rest on they forum. There are so many that get on the forum and lift up some denomination that they stand for, I just want to lift up Jesus and what God has done for all those that will commit the keeping of their souls to Him. Merry Christmas to all, and a thank you to God the Father for the most blessed gift that could ever be given, His precious Son JESUS. CDBJ |

Dear brother CDBJ Meery Christmas and thank you for the kind response. It is so go for Christians to rejoice together in our Saviour who gives us an inner joy which cannot be found in this world. I read your profile and it is wonderful to hear of yet another person who came to Christ while reading the Bible alone. God's Word is indeed "living and powerful". Your brother by his grace alone Robert |
