The serpent
Used by Satan
Created good, but with free will
Became proud
The temptation
Questioning God – did God really say
Contradicting God – you will not die.
The judgment is the first thing denied
Lying about God – implied God wanted to keep them from having wisdom
Eyes will be opened
Will be like God
Knowing good and evil
The response
Misquotes what God had said – didn’t know God’s word
Lessened God’s provision – God said eat from any tree except the one
Added to the strictness – not even touch it
Softened the penalty – made it less certain
Saw the fruit was good for food – physical appetite
Pleasing to the eye
Desirable for gaining wisdom
Disobeyed
Adam was also present during this.
The serpent uses the plural ‘you’, and v. 6 says he was with Eve.
Adam was not deceived, he had received the command not to eat from this tree directly from God.
Instead of considering all the good things God had provided, being satisfied with what they had, they desired the one thing they didn’t have.
The result
Did not die physically right away, but death entered the world, did die spiritually – their fellowship with God was brokem
Did receive knowledge – now they know both good and evil, before they only knew good
Did not become like God
Shame – sewed fig leaves
Guilt – hid from God
Fear
In his new self-focused state he was more concerned about how he felt than about his sin against God.
All died
Creation affected
Why let it happen?
God had given free will
Somehow allowing the fall ultimately leads to a greater end
Facing temptations help strengthen us
Where are you?
First question God asks
First question we must answer
Know God’s word – example of Jesus’ temptation
Trust in God’s goodness
Be aware of Satan’s schemes – we can’t win the battle if we don’t realize we are in one
