The Fall of Man
This passage records Satan's first tempting of humans, and provides us with a wealth of information concerning his tactics.
Here we find 3 ploys Satan used to bring Eve to her fall into sin.
The Serpent
Here we see Satan coming in the form of a Serpent.
We don't know if the serpent stood up, erect like a man, or if he could possibly fly.
Eve added to what God had said;
Gen 2.17
God did not say “not to touch it” He said;
“but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die.”
Satan’s challenging and questioning the word of God.
ploy #1
Satan questions the word of God.
Satan constantly seek to cause a questioning of God’s word.
Did God really say?
Satan did not deny that God had spoken.
He simply questioned whether God had really said what he thought she had said.
He wanted her to think that perhaps she had misunderstood God’s command, Today Satan still twist the truth and tries to alienate people from God.
Look at the attacks Satan has bought against the Bible, against God’s Word.
Has God said?
was it really God who said it ?
The Bible was written by men
The Bible contains errors
Satan constantly challenging the word of God.
Contradicting God’s Word
“You surely will not die”
Satan begins to lie, this the first recorded in the bible
Satan is the father of lies, he is the deceiver.
Eve did not know evil (not yet), all she knew was God said not to eat it.
Satan now challenges and questions God’s fairness.
He question God’s love and justice.
Satan wanted to make Eve think that God was holding something back.
In reality, God had placed those restrictions and Adam and eves life to keep them from sinning.
Likewise, the barriers God places in our lives are there because he loves us.
God is under attack-
Satan questions the Word of God, he questions the love of God, and the justice of God.
He is not with you, he is holding something back from you.
Holding back something that is of value worthwhile, something desirable.
He doesn’t want you to be like Him, or wise to be like God.
Satan denied God’s word
first, Satan questioned God’s word, but then he denied God’s word.
He went from “did God really say this?”
To “that’s a lie!”
It is a short step from questioning God’s word to denying it.
If Eve had not listen to Satan’s questioning, she would never have fallen into his trap.
Jesus said
Do not love the world nor the things in the world.
If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world.
Satan used this 3 prong attack
Lust of the flesh - it was good to eat
Lust of the eyes - pleasant to behold
Pride of life - a tree desirable to make on wise like God.
The women was deceived but Adam was not.
He disobeyed God’s command.
1 Tim 2.14
And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression.
Suddenly-
The lust of the flesh been given into and they became conscience of the flesh.
The beginning of Man’s body awareness.
God made us - spirit, soul, and body (inferior triunity).
The real me is spirit, I live in a body, and I posses a consciences (soul).
Made in the image of God: (The Holy trinity)
Man met God in a spiritual level, when mans spirit was up most, their was a beautiful communion with God and a fellowship with God.
But when man obeyed the body’s appetite eating the fruit from the tree of good and evil, man became inverted.
Becoming body, soul, and spirit.
The spirit now is dead, out of touch with God.
He has lost awareness and conscientiousness of God, the spirit is dormant.
The upper most thing that rules the mind is the awareness is of the body, and the needs of the body.
The desires of the flesh now rule over man.
So everyone of us formerly walked...
Eph 2.2-3
in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience.
3 Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.
Because I was born in this inverted way; body, soul, and spirit.
my mind and body is ruled by the body appetites (it’s all I think about).
It dominates my mind, my every thought.
Jesus said to Nicodemus - You must be born again.
You were born of the flesh, but now you must be born of the spirit.
There must be a return to the original plan of God - to be in fellowship with Him.
Inverting back to spirit, soul and body.
Changing the mind to spiritual things.
They that are of the flesh do mind to fleshly things, they of the spirit, do mind spiritual things.
1 Cor 2.12 “Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God,”
therefore, my mind is ruled by either my body appetites or my spirit.
When I am born again by the spirit of God, the spirit become uppermost, my conscientiousness, my mind is that of a God conscientiousness and my spirit rules.
spirit, body, and soul.
coming back into fellowship with God, I am now alive in the spirit where I was once dead in my sin.
But now God has made me alive in the spirit again and it’s a whole new life.
Old things past away, all things become new.
I am a new creation, a new creature in fellowship with God.
I now have the mind of Christ, having an awareness of God longing for things of God.
A new view on life.
Testimony-
My friends I used to run around with don't recognize me.
I am not the person I used to be.
What now seems so clear to me, because I am now spiritually alive, does not make sense to my old friends.
They think I am crazy and can not understand this new life I have.
2 Cor 2.14 “But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place.”
