I would like to try a little something. Most members know scripture, but have they reasoned on them?
Why Jesus came to die as a human? He could have died as non-human? My Response Our sacrifice had to be human blood for human for God is Just and angels do not die.
Why he had to be dead for three day? Why not two, or ten…why three? My Response To fulfill prophecy when he said as Jonah was in the fish's belly for 3 days and night, Yet He was not in the tomb for 3 days & 3 nights he was tormented in hell for 3 days & 3 nights beginning from the time he was taken in the garden until he arose the morning of the seventh day Sabbath, just as the Passover Lamb had to be prepared on Friday before sunset, eaten Saturday Eve which is Friday after sundown and finished before morning which would have been Saturday. It never says he was in the grave 3 days, it says that from the time he is delivered into the hands of sinful man is crucified and at the end of 3 days, it does not say 3 days after he is crucified, we just assume it:
Luke 24:7
7 Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
KJV
This event was told by God in Genesis 3:15.
The why Jesus died as a human, and why he was dead for three days, has to do with what Satan did not do, as well as what he did do. Satan wanted Adam, and the women Dead. Why? My Response because of jealousy, he wanted worship for himself.
Before Adam and the women took of the fruit, why did Satan not tell them to first eat of the tree of life?
My Response Eve thought the tree in the MIDST of the garden was the forbidden tree. She never calls the tree by name. Some will argue both trees were in the Midst of the garden but if that is so, why didn't Satan ask which TREE? Eve was deceived because she received the Word of God second hand from Adam.
The Garden in Genesis holds the key to what is really going on today.
Why would God make the yet unborn human family die for what Adam and the women did? Maybe it is not God who makes us die…if he wanted us to die, why would he send Jesus to save us? That makes no sense?
My Response because this is how God forms the angels in the image of Christ aka the Word of God.
Rom 8:19-23
19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
KJV
In Genesis 3:15 God is talking to Satan about Satan having seed? Angels don’t have seed?
My Response Angels do not have natural children this is true, but Satan does have spiritual children who are of his seed/word made in his beastly image of dog eat dog of an unclean spirit.
Just as Jesus is the Seed of God(until the Seed should come) and the Bible tells us the Seed is the Word. So in order to be a spiritual child of God we must have the Seed/Word of God indwelling us as His Spirit guides us by also indwelling us.
Luke 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. {IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD}
KJV
Gal 3:19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.
KJV
Gal 3:16
16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
KJV
1 John 3:9
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
KJV
We must plant the Word of God into our hearts to become a child of God for Christ is His Seed and you can only do this by the Spirit of God living in you.
After Adam was created, 1/3rd of the angels revolted…why?
There are many question that point to things that took place in the Garden that have not been addressed in the teaching of the Bible…why?
Anybody care to step out on a limb, and voice opinion?
Here are a few more bible facts:
Genesis 5. Cain and Able are not listed as children of Adam? After the event in the Garden, Adam is recorded as having his first child, Seth, over 100 years after the Garden event?
My Response Cain and Abel were twins born in the same pregnancy being one good and one evil as the tree they ate of who is Satan, just as Christ who is the Word of God is the Tree of life. Adam was the first human being created before those in Gen 1:26 on the sixth day. Seth was in the image of Adam's fallen nature and Abel was dead and Cain was of the wicked one as we know. Cain and Able were conceived in the image of God knowing good and evil.
Gen 3:22
22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
KJV
All men are of God, yet not all are God's children it is according to the spirit that you are led by and the words you receive into your heart. Fleshly beast nature men as Esau are not of God... But those who are not led of their animal nature but who are willing to wrestle all night long with God's Word like Jacob did are the children of God. You will notice that the 1st Adam in the generations of the heavens and earth in Gen 2 was created alone, before all trees plants and animals or Eve. Those created on the 6th day were created after all things and at the same time. Adam was male and female in attributes just as God is. God divided Adam's attributes to create Eve his BETTER half : ) That is why the two become one flesh.
Gen 4:26
25 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
KJV
Gen 5:3
3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:
KJV
Adam named the women Eve after Cain was born. Eve means, “Giver of Life.” Which means, “The father position?
My Response Because Eve represents The Woman/Jerusalem who is the mother of us and she has no literal children but spiritual children having the Spirit of God. Father, Word/Son and Holy Spirit are one God of male and female attributes yet considered male. That is why the Spirit is as a Dove for the Spirit is the female attributes of God who plants the Seed aka Christ the Word of God into our hearts forming us into the children of God. The Wisdom of God is also Gods Word and wisdom is called a SHE who was by His side at the creation of the world, yet the Word aka Jesus is who the Father uses to create all things because He speaks and His Word/Christ goes forth from the Father's mouth to accomplish the thing He sent His Word to do. God said: Let there be light and that Light was Jesus the living Word for the sun and moon were not created until the 4th day. All who have God's Spirit are called the living all other's are the DEAD.
There are many trees in the Bible, all are symbolic. Why has man made the two trees in the Garden literal trees? Why are they not also symbolic?
My Response Jesus is the Tree of Life being the Word of life and Satan is the tree who exalted himself to receive the worship to teach man how to look good outwardly when man is watching, but evil inwardly where God's eyes see their evil intensions.
Ezek 31:8 The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chestnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty.
9 I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him.
10 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;
11 I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.
KJV
Each of the things above are related, one to the other. Draw a line from dot, to dot, and there should be a clear picture.
How would you explain the events…without quoting scriptures…just explain in your own reasoning, what these event point to.
I know we are all Christians. Most of us don't agree on many things...for once, lets work together as a group. You might find it fun. on the other hand, you may not.
