Genesis 3
1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea hath God saith, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
Genesis 2:
1 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
Genesis 2:
16 And the Lord God (YHWH) commanded the man saying, Of all the tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat
The spirit man is also the inner man or the hidden man of the heart. When YHWH, the Lord God, formed man and put him in the garden of Eden, and having breathed into the nostrils of his nose, the man became a living soul with capacity to relate to God and to the intellect and the physical. The first is the spirit man for God is a Spirit and they that must worship Him must do so in spirit and truth (John 4:24); the next is the soul with which the man engages the abstract and then, there’s the body with which he contacts the external world, displaying the unseen life within in the physical.
Genesis 2:
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life: and man became a living soul
Genesis 2:
7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul
We are continuing with our meditation on life’s destiny of man or, if you like, his raison’detre. Creation can only but be seen through the One who created it and subjected it in hope.
Genesis 1:
27 So God created man
in his own image.
in the image of God
he created him;
male and female
he created them (NIV)
The delirious activities of man, his constant motions and demotions, the whirling gyrations of his mind and the several civilisations he evolved and he’s still evolving have one purpose in view, albeit, he doesn’t know it: destiny. And what is destiny? Eternal Life is destiny; destiny is eternal life.
