This is a brief and condensed LOOK n SEE
Gen 2:17 - "you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely die.”
#1 - God said that Adam would die the very same day he ate the forbidden fruit.
Adam, in fact did not physically die on the day he ate the forbidden fruit.
Adam, in fact, lived for another 339,450 days = 930 years.
#2 - God does not lie - Gen 3:7-8
And the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; so they sewed together fig leaves and made coverings for themselves.
Then the man and his wife heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the breeze of the day, and they hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.
Adam, in fact died the very same day = in his soul/spirit and not in his physical body.
#3 - God's Desire for man was for Adam to Walk with HIM and to Know and Love God for 1,000 Years.
After which Adam's physical body would be Transformed into a Eternal Glorified Body. This Desire was interrupted by SIN - which God knew would happen and therefore had the Eternal Plan of Redemption for man already in PLACE = Revelation 13:8 "the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world."
#4 - God's Desire never left us = Genesis
a.) "Abel was a keeper of sheep -And the LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering"
b.) "Enoch walked with God, and then he was no more, because God had taken him away"
c.) "Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord - Noah walked with God."
d.) David, a man after God's Desire and the Promise of God - Psalm 51:10-13
Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me away from Your presence,
And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of Your salvation,
And uphold me by Your generous Spirit.
Then I will teach transgressors Your ways,
And sinners shall be converted to You.
#5 - Sin will not thwart God's Desire = Psalm 51:5-6
Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,
And in sin my mother conceived me.
Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts,
And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom.
Adam died the very same day when sin entered his inward parts therefore sin passed to all men = "in sin my mother conceived me."
Good News - God's Desire is Greater then the sin we were conceived in = "in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom."
From the Beginning, God demonstrates His Love for us as He covers Adam's nakedness thru the shedding of blood for Adam's sin - Genesis 3:21
"And the LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and He clothed them."
#6 - Six is the number of Man - God's Desire would Manifest as a Man = in the Place where all men sinned, GOD comes in His Temple.
"In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God" = and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us."
#7 - God's Desire has Come - God Rested on the 7th Day = John 1:16-17 "And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. For the law was given through Moses(Fig Leaves), but Grace and Truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him."
Remember the animal skin that God clothed Adam & Eve with = Here it is = "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life - the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world."
#8 - God's Desire will Come Again and ALL that HE had intended for man will be Fulfilled- 1 John 3:1-3 , Revelation 2:11 and 20:4-6
8 is the number of New Beginnings
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. He who overcomes shall not be hurt by the Second Death.” ’
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands;
and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
This is the First Resurrection - Blessed is he who has part in the First Resurrection, on such the Second Death has no power.
