Hello everyone, I welcome you in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ to another day in this series. Yesterday, we stopped at the Seven personalities involved in the judgement of God. Let us start on this note:
THE FALL OF MAN. Gen. 3:1-24
There are many things to explore and touch in this chapter.
1. The first verse made us to know that the serpent was the king of the animal at least at that time. Vs 14 made us to know that the snake had legs for movement before the fall.
2. The fact that the spiritual serpent spoke through the physical serpent is not debatable. So, it means that before the fall, ANIMALS AND MAN COULD COMMUNICATE. If this wasn't so, Eve would have raised serious eyebrow seeing an animal that couldn't communicate with her start doing so.
3. The spiritual serpent deceived Eve to believe that when they eat of this tree, they would be like God knowing good and evil.
God knows good and evil but He doesn't do evil. Also, man was already made in the image and likeness of God. He doesn't need to eat/do anything else to become like God. The Devil is the Prince of darkness; he rules your ignorance and that's why the light of Genesis 1:3 must continually shine in your heart. Selah!
4. Adam wasn't deceived, it was Eve that was. Adam ate the fruit because of love for his wife and because he identified with the woman in her falling state. 2 Cor. 11:3, 1 Tim. 2:14. 5. Adam and Eve ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and they died both physically and spiritually that day. (I have explained this one yesterday).
THE JUDGMENT OF GOD. Gen.3:14-19
I said yesterday that God took the number 3 that had been polluted by the ungodly pseudo Trinity established by the Devil to the number 7 which is the number of the perfection of God for all generations. The personalities are:
1. God.
2. Adam.
3. Eve.
4. The physical serpent.
5. The spiritual serpent.
6. The seed of the woman- Jesus.
7. The seed of the spiritual serpent- the Antichrist.

GAINS AND THE LOSSES IN THE GARDEN
Gen. 3:14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
3:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
3:18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
3:19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

1. The physical serpent lost its feet. This was gained by the spiritual serpent. The Law of Double Reference (I have talked about it must be used to interpret Gen. 3:14 and 15.
2. The woman's pain in child bearing was increased and her desire shall be to her husband, and he shall rule over her.
3. The ground was cursed because of man. Toiling began; hard work, little result.
4. Man was reduced to DUST and the serpent was told to eat DUST. YEEEEH! It means that as long as the physical serpent goes on its belly and eats physical dust, the spiritual serpent (the Devil) has the authority to devour man. May God grant you understanding!
5. Man lost the dominion mandate and the staff of rulership of this planet Earth to the spiritual serpent. He lost his headship authority. The Devil became the god of this world; a position that Adam once occupied.
6. God lost the 'cool of the day communion' with man.
7. God said 'I will put enmity
between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel'. This implies:
a. A lifelong enmity between the Seed of the Woman (Jesus and his followers) and the seed of the spiritual serpent (The Antichrist and his followers).
b. This also spoke the death of Jesus in the hands of the infidels but much more important is the fact that about the fact that the seed of the woman will crush the head of the spiritual serpent. 'Head talks about 'Authority/Dominion'. So, it means the authority Adam lost will be restored through the seed of the Woman.
8. Man was driven out of Eden and a Cherub began to guard the place.
Let me stop here tonight. I will continue from here tomorrow.
