The Fall of Man, Spiritual death
The Lost of the Image of God
The fall of Mankind, God created man perfect to live
for ever, but Adam and Eva disobeyed God, Sinned.
In this study we will look at the fall and its effects.
When sin entered the human race, the image of
God in which man was created was lost
or lost to some degree.
The serpent provided the temptation for sin.
One of Satans first method of attack is always
to question Gods Word.
When you get away from the word of God,
the Truth, the Plumb line, then Satan is able accommodate you.
The Nature of the Fall
Adam and Eve were
free moral agents.
Their sin was a voluntary act of there will, seized
God's right to determine what is good and evil.
Knowing good and evil is to
determine what is right or wrong behavior apart from God.
We are to have our senses exercised
We need to try the spirits whether they are
right or wrong.
We must realize that we cannot be in
fellowship with God when we are doing those things
that God said not to do.
The Results of the Fall
The ground was cursed, Sorrow and pain to the woman in child-rearing,
Physical labor, Physical and Spiritual death,
Being removed from the garden,
Lost of the Image of God.
A look at spirit and truth.
What is Spirit?
What is Truth?
God is deeply personal and can be worshiped only
at a personal level, from our spirit to God's,
who is a Spirit.
Spiritual death --
Lost of the Image of God
God created us in his image, in his likeness:
To give him praise and honor,
To have fellowship with him.
This is a choice of our freewill.
We are free but have limits.
Satan became Adams god, When Adam sinned.
God saw Adams state of being;
Separated from him.
God shed innocent blood of animals and
covered Adam and Eve with the skins.
