UNDERSTANDING GENESIS–The Lord God sent him forth from the garden…

I read a meme recently that made the claim that it was the gospel in a nutshell. It said God made it- Adam broke it- Jesus fixed it. If you believe this is the Genesis account in a nutshell then you do not know the first thing about the true and living God. His Son Jesus. Or what the atonement was for. In Rom.5:12,13 Paul tells us that when Adam sinned it brought sin into the world. Not all sin. Just his. And Paul also said this sin was not imputed to him or anyone else. This means that God did not hold this sin against Adam. So that he, nor anyone else for that matter, was not punished for it. So how could Adam be accused of breaking anything? And how can the rest of mankind be punished for…

UNDERSTANDING GENESIS: GOD SAID IT WAS VERY GOOD; GOD WAS SAYING IT WAS EXACTLY AS HE INTENDED IT TO BE

What so many have been deceived to believe is a behavioral problem for mankind, is actually a spiritual problem. Because what people do is not what keeps them from heaven and eternal life. It’s what and in whom they believe that does. The fact that man was created natural and not spiritual is the issue. And this issue can only be remedied when we are made spiritual. In this message I will show you that it is because Adam was made a natural man, not a spiritual one that created man’s need for Jesus. Because only in this way could God’s plan that men would choose to love Him in return for His love by their own God given free will fill their need for Jesus. This is why God made man in such a way that it would not…

MAN, MORTAL FROM THE BEGINNING- THE SURPRISING BEAUTY OF IT

The beauty of our mortality is that in it, and by our own free will, we find reason to seek a relationship with God. This is why God set it up so that Adam would only be sent out of the garden after he had the knowledge of good and evil. And not before. Because armed with this knowledge, and understanding his own mortality, it was God’s plan that he would come to trust in Jesus by seeking for answers about what comes next. And hearing those answers from those who have come to know Him. The Bible tells us in 1Cor.2:14 that the natural man doesn’t consider spiritual things. Neither can he know them because they can only be discerned through spiritual means. The reason for this is that generally speaking the natural man only thinks of things in terms that relate to…

Methodists Uphold Marriage Stance,”One Woman One Man,” GOD Plan!

On June 26, 2015, the United States Supreme Court issued a ruling legalizing gay marriage. Across the Atlantic, in mid-July 2013, the Queen of England signed into law “The Marriage Bill,” which allows same-sex couples to marry legally. Around the world, at least fifteen other nations have legalized marriage between same-sex partners. Obviously, the societal definition of marriage is changing. But is it the right of a government to redefine marriage, or has the definition of marriage already been set by a higher authority? In Genesis chapter 2, God declares it is not good for Adam (the first man) to live alone. All the animals are there, but none of them are a suitable partner for Adam. God, therefore, in a special act of creation, makes a woman. Just a few verses later, the woman is called “his wife” (Genesis…
