Subject: Was the curse on the ground lifted? |
Bible Note: You are correct. I did not explain anything, but the BIBLE dose. Was the curse of Gen.8:21 lifted? Yes, it was the flood. Gen.8:20-22 Was the curse of Gen 3;17 lifted? No, but it can be a blessing. Man is put in the Garden of Eden to take care of it.(work,labor, deeds, etc. in a sinless enviroment) Gen 2:15 ( blessing ) Work, labor, deeds, etc. now. Is this a blessing or a curse? First you must be a believer in CHRIST. 1 John 1:5-10; You must maintain your relationship with CHRIST. 1 John 1:9, 1 John 1:7b. Eph. 2:10; Our rightful place and the works that GOD has prepared us to do. Luke 11:9-13; GOD's promise that HE will give you the best. Luke 11:13. You must work ( put forth effort ) to receive it; ask, seek, knock, pray. Rom. 2:11-16; GOD's Principles of Judgment not just the condemnation of the Jews; verse 9) and also the Gentiles, verse 10) and also the Gentiles, verse 11) no respect of persons with GOD. Tribulation and anguish for doing evil. Rom. 2:9. 2 Cor. 9:6-10; If in GOD's will, doing GOD's will. GOD's grace to do it, having all sufficiency in all things while doing. 2 Cor. 9:8. Col. 3:16-17; Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the LORD JESUS. Col. 3:17. 1 Cor. 10:31; Whatever you do, do all to the glory of GOD. Work, labor, deeds, etc. are a blessing HIS way,in HIS grace and your focus on HIM not on me, myself and I. Do it any way other than HIS. You pay the price. Luke 11:9. Your position in CHRIST,knowledge of the WORD, and faith are the keys to make work a blessing. May the LORD guide you in your study. 1 John 1:9 and 1 John 1:7b, Brian |
