Subject: What was Jesus doing in the earth 3 days |
Bible Note: Hello Truthfinder You said... Gen. 2:17 “But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will positively die.” Thus God says Adam would die. What though did Satan tell Eve? He told her at Gen. 3:4 “At this the serpent said to the woman: “YOU positively will not die.” I personally choose to believe what God told Adam and NOT what Satan told Eve. I believe what God said as well...The DAY YOU EAT...YOU SHALL SURELY DIE. They died that day. Their fellowship with God was broken. You said... . If we read Gen. 2:7, we learn what life is. Thus the opposite of life is death. Logical? Certainly it is. Gen 2:7 tells us, "And Jehovah God proceeded to form the man out of dust from the ground and to blow into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man came to be a living soul." What consciousness did Adam have when he was a dead soul, a few momements earlier? I have no reason to conclude that he had any! What conclusion am I to draw but at dying Adam returned to total unconsciousness as he was before becoming a “living soul”? First... you say that before God breathed into Adam's nostrils he was a dead 'soul'. No, He was a lifeless body. God breathed His life into Adam.. and Adam became a living spirit. A spirit housed within a body...then at the fall, this spirit was seperated from fellowship with the Father. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Peter says that Jesus body was put to death, His flesh... and that His spirt WENT....
