Subject: Why did God test Adam and Eve ? |
Bible Note: Dear Beseder, Happy freedom day and Gods blessings to you and welcome to the forum. Matthew 5:17-20 For space sake I will just refer to verse 17 of Matthew five. VS 17- Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets:I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them(NIV).Read the rest of the passage refered to above,it carries a lot of weight.Romans 15:4 2 Peter 1:21 2 Timothy 3:16,17 It's all Gods Word from Genesis to Revelation. We can ill afford to neglect or negate any part of it. I recently heard this coment and it just blew me away. It wasnt like it wasnt something I was not aware of,oft times we ignore things that are the most obvious. But a friend of mine made this statement- The Old Testament is the physical manifestation of the spiritual truths taught in the New Testament.God has given us a gold mine.Why not tap into all of it's riches and resources. Thats what God wants us to do,thats what we must do if we are to lead the lives as the men and women of God He has called us to be. Your brother in Christ, lionheart |
