THE PLANET EARTH BEFORE ADAM DAY 14


Hello everyone, welcome to another day in this series. Yesterday, I stopped at The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.
God said 'But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die'. But what we saw in Gen. 3:6 was 'And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
3:7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons'.
They ate and their eyes were opened instead for them to die. The questions are:
A. Was it that God told a lie about the death issue or He was referring to a death different from what we know as death?
B. When the Bible says 'their eyes were opened', does it mean they have been walking around with their eyes closed?
Let us now answer them one after the other.
A. God didn't joke with His word. He is not a man that He should lie. Num. 23:19 When God said, the day you eat of it, you will die, the power to accomplish this has already gone out alongside the words that proceeded from His mouth. John 6:63, Is. 55:11.
ADAM AND EVE DIED BOTH PHYSICALLY AND SPIRITUALLY THAT DAY.
The resultant effect of the spiritual death reflected in their consciousness of the physical world at the expense of the spirit world which manifested in their physical eyes being opened and the fear of withstanding the Presence of the Lord God in the Garden. Also, you can say 'but Adam lived 939 years thereafter'? A day in God's Presence is ONE THOUSAND YEARS down here and vice versa PS. 90:4 and 2 Pet. 3:8. Methuselah that came closest to a day was because of the teachings of his dad who had serious intercourse with the Zoe of God so much that he had to be taken off the scene.
B. Before the fall, the duo of them see majorly through their spiritual eyes. In other word, they see EVERYTHING IN THE NATURAL REALM from the spiritual perspective. Heee! This is something we should strive to get back. Even though, we have been reconciled to God, most of us hardly see things from the spiritual perspective.
When they partook of that fruit, their spiritual eyes were shut while the natural eyes became opened. They now walk and work by their five natural senses. The glory of God that covered their nakedness was removed and they had to cover their bodies with leaves. Oh what a pity!
Let me talk about the JUDGEMENT OF GOD AND THE PLAN OF REDEMPTION REVEALED IN GENESIS 3
From the beginning, God has established resurrection in the number '3'. This is evident by the work of the third day. By the way, THE RESURRECTION POWER HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE IN GOD BEFORE HE EVER RAISE ANYTHING/BEING FROM THE DEAD. May God give you understanding! Have you read John 11 vs. 25 before?
On the third day, God didn't plant seed so that it could produce trees. No! He called forth trees with fruits and seeds Gen. 1: 11-13. Planting is a type of death. John 12:24.
Also, the Lord God had already established a trinity with Adam and Eve in the garden. But, the Devil came in and brought Death into this number through the ungodly trinity he formed with Adam and Eve. When the Lord God came into the garden, He had to take the number from 3 to 7 which is the number of the Perfection of God in all generations. He did this by bringing in other personalities into the garden in the course of pronouncing His judgement. The personalities are:
1. The Lord God.
2. Adam.
3. Eve.
4. The physical serpent.
5. The spiritual serpent.
6. The seed of the spiritual serpent.
7. The seed of the woman.
There are many things to still explore. Let me stop here. Tomorrow, we will explore the the judgement of God and how it concerned each of them and possibly start 'The making of man'. Why? The making of man wasn't complete before the Devil to tamper with the project 'MAN'.
I pronounce the blessing of God in Eph. 1 vs 17 tonight.

Prayer of Enquiry

PRAYER OF ENQUIRY Prayer is a well established and accepted doctrine in all denominations of the body of Christ. Although, there are differences in our modes of prayer, we all believe in the efficacy of lifting up our voice to God to hear our requests and answer them. As much as we do a lot of this, we don't take the full advantage of it as children of God. We would rather worry and think things through rather than calling on God for help. This can be due to lack of faith in the power of God or being slothful in prayers. Apart from the aforementioned factors that prevent us from enjoying the efficacy of prayers, one key factor that prayer hinges on is praying correctly. To pray correctly simply means to pray according to the will of God. It is easy to know the will of God about sickness and poverty because they are expressly written in bible, but even at this, we still do not get answers when we pray. What you might be missing out may be a simple enquiry. The prayer ...

Holy Spirit 15- The Seven Spirits of God- Part 2

We have established yesterday that the 7 Spirits of God describe the 7 fold distinct manifestation of the Holy Spirit and it also describes the perfection of the Spirit of God. The answer to yesterday's quiz is: when God stepped into the matter in Eden, the 7 persons brought by the number 7 are: Adam, Eve, Physical Serpent, spiritual Serpent (the Devil), the Seed of the Woman (Jesus the Christ), the seed of the spiritual serpent (Antichrist) and God Himself . Re- read Day 14 to know how this fit in. Today's Broadcast 2. THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM Is. 11:2, Eph. 1:17 This is the Spirit that reveals to you the PLANS AND PURPOSES OF GOD CONCERNING YOUR LIFE, A MATTER, PLACE, etc. If you will ever know why you are on earth, you need the operation of the Spirit of Wisdom. He reveals EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING about the future. There are 3 prominent Greek words used for Wisdom relevant to our subject; SOPHIA, SUNESIS and PHRONESIS. A. SOPHIA describes the entire wisdom of God. T...

Holy Spirit 4- The Symbol of Dove

Mt. 3:16, Mk. 1:10. This typifies the harmless and gentle nature of God the Holy Spirit. He neither FORCE NOR FUSS ANYONE. It is only the Devil that force people and even afflict them without their consent. The Holy Spirit IS NOT a dove; He created the dove. Luke 3:22 says 'the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form like a dove upon Him'. Many have wrongly interpreted this verse and that's why many church logos have the dove as an integral part of it. You need to know that the church can NEVER COME INTO HER FULL POTENTIAL AND RELEVANCE ON THE EARTH UNTIL SHE KNOWS (knowledge with participation-Greek EPIGNOSIS) the Holy Spirit. The person that designed the handbill for EPIGNOSIS Nite had already put a Dove there to represent 'the Holy Spirit'. I told him to remove it. The symbols in most cases are already becoming an idol in many people's hearts and rather than for many to think of the Holy Spirit as a person, they think of Him as a dove/fire/wind,etc. T...
