Genesis 3 What Happened in the Garden of Eden?
-
Identifying the Serpent

-

Adam, operating by the authority or mindset of thinking he was fully developed as a Son of God, when taking Eve to propagate the race of humanity, had ALREADY risen, in immaturity and childlike disobedience. This was against God, imbibing as fact his idea (as he thought it indeed was) that he was a free-moral-agent, deciding good and evil. He then went about to prove this concept by convincing Eve to participate. He proposed that they could attain god-like status, evidenced in the ability of creating children through Eve in the sex act, producing the human race.
-
Therefore, the bestial creation - man, having NOT arrived at maturity as a manifested fully adopted and placed Son of God, with the confidence of his Father, was still learning from God. As he increased in that training and learning from the Father, he began to think he HAD arrived. Within the concept of self-determination, freewill, and choice, he deduced he could make his own decisions, based upon what he saw and felt. Yet, he did NOT, indeed, have the understanding and confidence to consciously act in dependence upon God. When in that mindset, he is the Dragon, that Old Serpent, the Devil and Satan. The key to understanding this record is to perceive that Adam was acting in a false sense of confidence. Thinking he did not need to learn at the Father’s progression, checking back there at all times to understand, he proceeded to convince Eve and act.

-

Only Two and not Three in the Garden of Eden:

-

There are only two parties in the Garden scenario with God – Adam and Eve.  Adam, in the mindset of self-determination, acting as an entity apart from his Creator, is the Serpent and “apparent” third party. He was in the above-described mindset. Therefore, Adam IS the Serpent, prior to Eve being convinced to submit.
-
This is not clear in Genesis 3. It is part of the sealing upon the mysteries of the Bible, confining their opening, exposure, and interpretation to solely Messiah,
Michael of Daniel 10:21. Later, under that authority, the scriptures ARE understood by everyone that hears / understands him.
-
The author of these pages was privileged to be in Michael’s presence the very hour this mystery of Genesis 3 was revealed. It occurred after we had returned from the Holy Land, leaving there on the 1335th day of
Daniel 12:12. This was due to the fact, as we have pointed out earlier, Daniel’s 70 Weeks WERE fulfilled. Thus, further revelation came of those mysteries, which were NOT revealed within the First Ministry of Messiah, fall 26 – spring 30 CE.
-
From that revelation in the author’s presence, as God opened this to Michael, the Genesis 3 enigma was made clear. As it appears in surface read, and carnal interpretations taught from basically literalists, Adam, still in the Garden, then in the scenario as the simple man and husband of Eve, is but a pawn. Following further in literalism, ideas and actions are APPARENTLY initiated by the Serpent and Eve. They are then passed on to the mere simple man / pawn, Adam, who suffers accordingly.
-
The truth of the matter, now that we have full insight, there is no talking snake, as taught by literalists. Without further analysis through the remainder of the scriptures, that false and carnal interpretation becomes isolated to Genesis. This renders the appearance that the curse is the loss of the Serpent’s legs, restricting it to crawl on its literal belly. Let us now analyze Genesis 3 by Michael’s interpretation, in comparison with other scriptures. Thereby, we can plainly understand what is written in this account. It later extends to full understanding of the “War in Heaven,” as depicted in Revelation 12.

-

Genesis 3

1 Now the serpent was more subtill than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

-

Identifying the “spirit” is the Critical Point:

-

This is the carnal man, having departed from God (in his mindset) to believe he is a free-moral-agent, and can operate apart from his Creator. Therefore, he is not subject to God in his own psyche, but rather is at enmity with (or an enemy of) God, as Paul states in

-

Romans 8:7

Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

-

Prior to this state of mind, Adam was in development, as man on the way to full Son of God status. The concept of free-moral-agency, freewill, and choice by one’s own will . . . entered his thinking process. Under that illusion, he was a separate entity from God, thinking “I have arrived, I am as my Father.” This premature thought orientation is later exposed by the Prophet Ezekiel. It is this understanding (short of full mature sonship) into which all are born, as carnal mankind. It precedes being raised spiritually in the manifestation of the Sons of God.

-

Ezekiel 28 

1 The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying,

-

2 Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord God; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:
-
(He sets in his own mind, what he thinks is the final and full understanding. He THEN thinks he is as God, with full knowledge, when he is not.)

-

3 Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:
-
(This is stated in sarcasm, a negative assessment, . . . NOT a positive affirmative. It is, rather, simply stating the arrogance that is in carnal MAN, thinking he is spiritual, is as God, when he is not.):

-

This is a statement of attitude in the Man of Sin, here called the King of Tyrus. There was a literal kingdom of Tyre, as well as a literal Prince of Tyrus, real entities, at a particular point in history, just a few years in proximity to the Prophet Daniel’s prophecies. Although that is true, this is NOT the full thrust and point of this scripture. As Jeremiah 50-51 uses literal Babylon to describe spiritual Babylon of the last days, when the real fulfillment of its destruction is seen, it is the same in Ezekiel 28.  The Man of Sin, the carnal mind of man in every man, or kingdom that comes to power in the spirit of self-destiny, is the same in character, wherever or whenever it surfaces. What is stated in verse 3 of Ezekiel 28 is the same as in Daniel 8:23-25 with the Zionists in later years and the final king over them, called “the king of fierce countenance.” They think they understand the dark sentences of the Law and Prophets. Then, they attempt to fulfill same within their own concept. Their understanding is, however, exactly opposed to the true understanding of the Prophet Daniel in his day. Later, it is against Messiah in his First Ministry, and again against Messiah in his Last Ministry. This is just before it is exposed and removed, permanently. Moving on to Ezekiel 28:4 exposing this same spirit:

-

4 With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures:

-

5 By thy great wisdom and by thy traffic hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches:
-
Again, when bringing Ezekiel 14:1-11 to bear upon this scenario in Ezekiel 28, we can perceive the seemingly prosperous existence. It is indicative of the deception God has ordained upon any alternate approach to God, in an iniquitous manner. This apparent success is only fully understood in its job to bring the whole program full circle to disastrous results. The final conversion and transformation is from men born of the flesh, to become men born of the Spirit. For the believers and predestined Sons of God, carnal birth, by water from one’s physical mother, must metamorphosize to being born of God our Father, the Holy Spirit, John 3.

-

6 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God;

-

7 Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.

-

8 They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas.

-

9 Wilt thou yet say before him that slays thee, I am God? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slays thee.

-

10 Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.

-

11 Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

-

12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord God; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

-

13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.

-

14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covers; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

-

15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, TILL INIQUITY WAS FOUND IN THEE.

-

16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

-

17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

-

18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffic; therefore, will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.

-

19 All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be anymore.

-

As we can see from this prophecy, it clearly states that the one in the garden of God is “a man.” This is NOT an ethereal spook, nor an animal with two legs that is changed later to become something that crawls on the literal ground, as projected by religious minds of literalism. He is also stated to be complete / “perfect” up to a point. From that point, he deviated. He came to where iniquity was found. This is the degradation we all see today. This is represented as the King of Tyre, but is fully, spiritually, and properly understood, when comparing all of the Word of God, as the MINDSET of the King of Tyre. The same mindset in Adam in the Garden of God, in his deviation from perfection, is THE DRAGON, operating in the BEAST, man, thinking he has arrived WHEN HE HAS NOT!!! This is the interruption in his growth process on the way to maturity, full Son of God status.
-
In this mindset, believing he had arrived at Son of God status, when he had not, he is the Son of the Wicked One, a product of HIS OWN devices, as he perceives himself. Thus, in that condition, he is the Man of Sin, the Son of Perdition. In the Garden of Eden scenario, he is “but a man,” Adam, the “Serpent.” Adam, in his mindset or Dragon mentality, thought he had arrived at full maturity with God. He determined he was like God, knowing good and evil, ready to act in that premature state. That action was to propagate the race of humanity, or produce additional life, ETERNAL LIFE. Such was eternal, via his concept of the propagation of his progeny, reproductively, physically, generation to generation without end, proving, in his mind, his godlike status. This is the Serpent, the Devil, Satan, and the Dragon.

-

Son of God versus Child of the Devil:

-

Man is the Beast that perishes, when he understands not, according to Psalms 49:20. When he receives the full Holy Spirit, he comes, in actuality, to Son of God status. Thus, via having the same mindset as Messiah, he is joint heir with Christ, and second born, even as Christ is the firstborn. When he receives an alternate understanding which he believes is truth, when it is a lie, he is shortsighted within the concept of self-determination, freewill, and choice. In that condition, he is a child of the Devil . . . a product of deviation away from truth, yet thinking he has truth.

-

Seriously:

-

Adam, operating in Genesis 3 to take control and deceive and manipulate to his ends, is the Serpent. Adam, as a mere participant, and therefore a recipient of said action is just man or Adam, the man, Eve’s husband. With this understanding, Genesis 3 can now be seen for the reality that it is portraying. It is no longer the fantasy from which much doubt is cast upon the Bible, right from its very beginning as being a fairytale, not to be taken seriously.

-

Genesis 3

2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:

-

3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

-

4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:

-

5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

-

6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

-

Who Did It?

-

We can see the order in the scenario, as the Serpent beguiles Eve in discourse and reasoning. She enters the deception by taking the action described as “eating.” This action is also entered by Adam (“her husband”) without any beguiling, discourse, or reasoning, whatsoever.

-

Do we really think Adam, who had walked with God, named the animals, and looked for a helpmate of his own kind, would really just docilely go along?!?!

-

It is time to wake up to  reality!!! Here has been a clear clue all along, of the same person being the Serpent Adam, while at the same time being the simple man, Adam, Eve’s husband. Adam, her husband, just partakes readily.
-
Why?
-
Well, because he was the one WHO DID IT to start with. He, as the Serpent in the mindset of self-determination, initiated the concept in Eve. Notice how she says: “Neither shall ye touch it” and that she “saw it was pleasant to the eyes.” This is also a clue as to how the Serpent Adam was manipulating her to achieve his objective. They were well-aware of how the species of animals in the garden reproduced; thus, we need not be graphic here. One can certainly picture this easily, if one is an experienced adult in the strong, almost overwhelming at times, physical attraction between sexes. The end of the matter is that the Serpent Adam could not do what he determined he needed to so do, in order to prove his godlike status, unless he could create life in perpetuity as a god through procreation with Eve. Moreover, he could not establish a standard of good and evil, unless he could establish it over his wife looking to him for guidance, as well as any children they produced.

-

So, the Serpent Adam conquers Eve into his mindset. She complies in the sex act to create the life the Serpent needs. This is his proof he is as a god, able to produce life under his standard and direction, as to what is good, and what is evil. Therefore, we have the race of humanity produced ever since, in this same mindset. Mankind comes into existence, believing they are separate entities from God. In that concept, they decide their own destiny as free-moral-agents, in godlike status. Hence, we have the apparent botched mess, called “the existence of mankind,” which we see prior to the release of this publication and of the full truth.

-

Next on the Agenda – Religion – the False Prophet:

-

Along with this illusion of false perception comes all the religions of the world which, without exception, have a standard of good and evil. They propound that it is up to the individual to choose one or the other, with various rewards and penalties accordingly. Of course, the most prolific doctrines are those of an afterlife, once one is physically dead. In turn, they create a place for clergy to officiate this whole debacle, with fantasies and remedies for failures, as they interpret same. All of this is the result of the departure from God’s Sovereignty and one hundred percent meticulous control, which Sovereignty and control eliminates such needs and remedies.

-

7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons.

-

8 And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden.

-

9 And the Lord God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?

-

10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.

-

11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?

-

12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.

-

13 And the Lord God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.

-

That Was Not Your Approach and Demeanor

When You Initiated This Whole Thing:

-

In the verses just quoted, we can see so many other scenarios in life for all of us. When we want something badly, we are in a demeanor and attitude of aggression – pushing our will and way to persuade others. However, when the plan comes crashing down, we become the poor, little people we are, receiving the rewards for our foolishness. We often look to blame those that we swayed to our opinion in the first place.  That is a simple way to look at this scenario here in Genesis 3. As the Serpent Adam, self-confident he was right, he convinces Eve to act with him. However, as Adam, the man, he participates as player and receiver of the plan. When it fails, the man Adam blames Eve. She, in turn, blames the Serpent Adam, not the man Adam, but rather the high and mighty, pushy Serpent Adam, that talked her into it in the first place.  A good comparison in secular literature, helping us TO picture this, metaphorically, is the work of fiction, by Robert Louis Stephenson, THE STRANG CASE OF DR.JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE.
-
Again, Adam is the same beast, but in two roles, here in Genesis 3. One is the initiator of the problem, and the other is the recipient of the problem. The mindset is the Dragon, the Serpent, the Devil, Satan, acting in Adam, the man. Adam, the man, is the beast that understands nothing as he should, or could . . . if he had waited upon God as his Sovereign, in due time, to bring that understanding.
-
In this fallen state, they, or rather “he,” the Dragon and Beast – Adam, so acts, whereupon the last 6000 years is the result. The record of Revelation 12 witnesses the same thing, as we compare it to Revelation 13. There, in that comparison, we can see Adam, the Dragon, and Adam, the Beast. They have the same appearance in Revelation 12, as the Beast Out of the Sea in Revelation 13, where it also states of that Beast Out of the Sea, that the Dragon gave that Beast its power and great authority.
-
Bottom line, there is no more mystery here; the curtain is pulled off the matter. The Serpent and Adam are the same physical entity under two attitudes, two spiritual activating forces. The Serpent Adam acts by a false understanding, and therefore dies, via that understanding “death.” The Man Adam acts by perceiving his wants, desires, and then failures, wrongly based upon his dead understanding. The next consequence is that his confidence and existence (within this lack of truth and operation under a delusion) “hell,” rises and falls, thus following right with death, as stated in the fourth seal of Revelation 6 and Isaiah 28, as clarified in Chapter 10 of our main publication. 

-

Condemnation – The Result of the Carnal Mind,

Operating as if We Are a Separate Entity from God,

Can only Leave Us under the Feeling of Guilt:

-

Yet, both entities are without full understanding. The Serpent Adam, having arrived at a status of confidence in that which he proposes, now suffers condemnation and guilt as Adam, the man, when he receives a result that he does not appreciate.  This is the determinate end of every action and thought of humanity ever since Adam and Eve. If we do good, as we perceive it, and are rewarded accordingly, we are encouraged, believing WE have done it. This still leaves us questioning our existence, and certainly our relationship with God, believing He is outside of us and may or may not approve. If we do not feel guilty, we at least have some form of lack of confidence. If we do evil as we perceive it, we can fall even further, continuing same, if it turns to a good outcome for us. Here, we will come up with some arguments to justify what works for us. In the Bible, it is called doing evil that good may come. In modern vocabulary it is called, “Machiavellianism” meaning the end justifies the means, no matter how dastardly, in order to arrive at that end.

-

It matters not how we start in the overall sense of the word and this scenario, because it is all actuated on a false premise and foundation. It is carried out under the illusion that we control our own destiny; within the greater parameters of circumstances, we cannot control.

-

14 And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

-

No Higher Purpose, Just Basic Desires:

-

In the mindset of the Dragon or self-determination, freewill, and choice, Adam the Serpent, no matter how lofty his aspirations and actions, because he perceives them as being HIS OWN works and ideas, cannot rise above his basic, bestial desires for personal pleasure and aggrandizement. Even those of humanity that are religious, see themselves as reaping a reward, or punishment for their actions, in some afterlife. If they go to church and become extremely “good works” conscious, they do it for a better reward after they die. With some, it is just to make it past the hellfire they have been told awaits them, if they do not “accept Christ,” and other such projections of doctrine. They do all and everything for self. Even if they do charitable things, it is these motivations, just stated, that color why they do them. 
-
They do not understand life or the First Two Great Commandments. They are sealed out and away, by the very false mindset they believe is proper. They seek death, which is their false understanding that they believe is life, and that understanding flees from them, leaving them feeling guilty and confused. This is the inevitable end of the mindset of self-determination, freewill, and choice.
-
Having no purpose of a higher calling, man crawls on his belly or lets those baser desires lead him in all he does; he eats dust or sees his life as coming to a termination without understanding. He comes from no purpose, as he understands it. He lives his life without purpose, except to please his bestial lusts. Then, he returns to oblivion, or the dust from whence he came, as stated later in verse 19.
-
He is cursed above the animals of lesser order, for they are not conscious of any higher purpose. They are not motivated to aspire to greatness and deeper meaning to life. They simply feed their lusts and instincts accordingly. However, man DOES sense there is something more to life than only those lusts. Yet, he cannot rise above them in the final analysis. Hence, our lot, not able to find God and arrive at a higher purpose, which we sense should be the case, we are cursed indeed above all other life forms and existence.

-

15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

-

Enmity between Mankind and God:

-

The enmity must be understood from all of the Word of God, and not privately interpreted. The enmity here is NOT man versus woman, as it may appear upon first glance, which indeed is true on a secondary basis. However, any enmity between man and woman, one toward the other, is due to the primary enmity of which this is speaking. THAT enmity is found between the progeny of man and woman, the seed of man and woman seen as their children, which is the human race, versus their Creator, God, again as stated in Romans 8:7.
-
The enmity, God versus mankind, or between God and mankind, bruises, or does damage to, or removes from proper supremacy in orientation, God, the Creator and head of all things, according to
I Corinthians 11:3. This places Him, via our psyche or mindset, outside of His creation looking in, as if He is a separate entity, and not in total control.  
-

As a result, this same enmity causes mankind, in the condition of relegating God outside looking in, to then bruise or do damage to, or remove from proper respect, mankind’s neighbor. This extends to the whole creation (God’s Heel) under the rule and reign of man in his fallen condition and mindset. From our fellow mankind, down to the lesser animals and the environment, we decimate the planet / earth in our current condition.
-
The “heel,” being the lesser creation, is bruised under the “head” man. He has removed the true head, God, in first instance, from His rightful position with mankind. This makes man the false head, from which all creation suffers.  One follows the other.  So, looking at this verse again, with inserted designations, we have:

-

15 And I (God) will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed;
-
(enmity between mankind and God)

-
it

(the enmity, which is man’s view of self-determination, a false view and understanding, called also “death”)
-
shall bruise
(displace or falsely relegate to a lower position,  as IF not in control and Sovereign)
thy (man’s)
-
head
(God),
(thus, placing man in charge of his own destiny, per man’s false understanding)
-
and
(additionally, as a consequence) thou (mankind) shalt bruise
(relegate to a place of lack of respect, thereby bruising or mistreating)
-
his (God’s) heel.
(lesser creation, ordained to be under man’s rule)

-

The Remedy or Cure:

-

Again, we see the remedy to this resides with the proper understanding. The First Two, or the Greatest Commandments, upon which all the Law and the Prophets hinge, must be understood. This is the understanding behind the First Two Seals, which are only opened / removed, seen, and heard, spiritually, when opened by Messiah unto us. This places God as the only Sovereign and Head. Therefore, the positive consequence follows. We render proper respect to lesser creation, God’s heel, under us.

-

16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.

-

Chips from the Old Block:

-
The Serpent Adam has taken charge and produced the race of mankind, in this mindset of putting God on the outside looking in. Consequently, all of creation suffers under man’s supervision and rule. Mothers suffer in trying to raise their children to adulthood. They are short of what they, as mothers, need for the purpose of performing that task. This is not referring to the physical birth of a child out of the literal, female womb. This is in reference to the full development she tries to bring to that child. Her desire is to produce a mature adult, full birth, making one independent from one’s mother.
-
In this endeavor, she looks to the stronger and naturally dominant male, her husband. The best he can do is rule over her, due to that strength, having no full, participatory knowledge and help. This real knowledge, therefore, help . . .  is the higher understanding. It must come from both the man and woman being in the good of the First Two Great Commandments, bringing the proper relationship with God. They must have the foundation for proper development in themselves, which can be passed on to their children.

-

17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;

-

18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;

-

19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

-

By simple deduction, we can see and understand “the voice of thy (Adam’s) wife,” for which he is condemned for listening and hearing that voice, is not her physical words expressed. It is rather the counsel and argument against God, rendered to her from the Serpent Adam. She, beguiled by him, then partakes. Adam, the man, then partakes from her. That of which he partook, was the counsel of the Serpent Adam.
-
In other words, the counsel of the Serpent Adam rendered to the man, Adam, from Eve, was the offering of herself as a sex partner to act in production of the species of mankind, within the mindset of the Serpent. The man, Adam, as created by, and walking in harmony with, God, succumbed to his alternate mindset, the Serpent Adam. He then proceeded to act with Eve, as a man with a woman, to bring forth mankind in Adam’s image and likeness. This was NOT, as of YET, in the fullness of the image and likeness of God. This is well witnessed in their firstborn son, Cain, who slew his brother, Abel.

-

Literalism again and Its foolishness:

-

The notion that thorns and thistles, which extends to house flies and mosquitos in some interpretations, will one day be eliminated, and were part of the curse here in Genesis, is ludicrous. What is presented here speaks in terms of returning to dust, metaphorically. In the mindset of self-determination, freewill, and choice, relegating God to the outside, looking in . . .  will yield a lack of desirable results, even harmful ones. Man will continue to see everything he does is the work of his OWN hands, and the sweat of his OWN brow, with little purpose, except of a very temporary nature, in all he does.
-
It means, in this false mindset, all our efforts are seen as just that – OUR EFFORTS. They are not part of God’s design and purpose, yielding the blessing we all await, when we put Him back in the position God indeed has. When THAT is the way we understand Him, THEN the curse will be lifted, bringing in the “world to come” the Bible promises. Here, no doubt, many things that are a plague and pestilence will be understood in the view of a remedy that comes from understanding God. We will work together with our neighbors, which includes our environment created by God as well, in that harmony.
-
Currently, many things we do to eliminate pressure upon ourselves, in our carnal mindset, only creates a hardship on others. The clear case in this mode of operation is removing people from their homes in Palestine, just to try and fulfill one’s version of the return of Israel to the land.  This is a point already well made in this publication, so we will move on.

-

Let Us Ascend and Sit in the Director’s Chair:

-

Now the question is surely proper at this point, provided one has followed along with this entire publication:
-
“In light of the fact that God controls all things,
Isa 45:6-7, Eph 1:11, can we view this whole scenario from a different perspective?”
-
The answer is . . . YES!
-
Rather than perceiving this as a fall from a position of perfection or innocence, we can view this from the Director’s chair. He is also the Author and Finisher of His Whole Grand Design. In Genesis 1 and 2 we have the Table of Contents of the Script and Book, out of which the drama of life has been, meticulously, PREWRITTEN. It operates, per that prewritten script, even to the most meticulous details. This includes that cell on the bottom of one’s foot that dies, or the next hair that falls from one’s head.
-
In that perspective, we can see that Adam was created as a beast on the same day as the beasts of the field on the 6th day. He was the most intelligent and designated to rule. Now, that was about 6000 years ago. One needs to ask himself only one question that will open a floodgate of truth, if he has followed with us so far. 

-

The Question Is:

-

What if we are now at the end of that 6th day?

-

Well… that is the truth of the matter.  Mankind, in our first birth as natural men, are not the finished product of God’s Purpose and Plan, when He said: “Let us make man in our image and likeness.” There were those that did arrive at a measure of that fullness. It is evidenced in their obedience to God and His Sovereignty, such as Abel, Noah, Abraham in particular, and certainly Messiah.  However, it was, and is only, Messiah, that could reveal, bringing to a spiritual birth, any other besides himself.  Those that went before, as Sons of God, were so by a direct revelation to them from God. It was not transferable to others, by hearing their voice of truth. It was only Messiah that could raise the dead (those of natural birth) into a spiritual conception and new birth, as Sons of God. Jesus states this plainly as:

-

John 12:24

Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abides alone: but if it die, it brings forth much fruit.

-

It was not until his death, burial, and resurrection that we have anymore Sons of God by spiritual procreation. The first one, after Messiah, was Peter. He, in turn, brought the truth that raised others on the Day of Pentecost.  From there, we know it soon went back into the vault of mystery. This was due to the false prophets. They came forth, taking Jesus’ name, saying he was the Messiah. However, they put their own slant / spin on it. This was primarily bringing self-determination, freewill, and choice, back into the picture.

-

It is the end of the 6th day, now upon us, for the nation of Israel, as well as the world. We will soon hear the Words of Messiah again . . . albeit in full disclosure this time. It will be without the ability to be shrouded in shortsighted concepts. There will be no parables to try and figure out. It will be plainly declared, all men will hear / understand, and be raised from the dead by that truth. It will either confirm their faith or refute it. This will be in a manner that will, then, open the door for them to learn truth, apart from their previous concepts, proven in error.

-

Until Then . . .

-

Returning now to Genesis 3:20-24

20 And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.

-

21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them.

-

22 And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever:

-

23 Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.

-

24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

-

Temporary Help for a Temporary Condition:

-

Here, we have the condition of man and his hope, always held before him of deliverance. At the same time, mankind is offered temporary help (called colloquially “religion”), within his current mindset, down through history, until the final remedy comes in the end time, now upon us. Adam names his wife Eve, the mother of all living. He did this in the hope of future deliverance. Yet, we know that she, and all mankind, have been dead, spiritually, ever since. Hence, there is the resurrection unto what life really is, when hearing the Voice of Messiah, and a declaration of full disclosure.
-
Until that time, we have the help that mankind perceives they need, once they are contrite and under apparent guilt.  Their nakedness, which was no problem to God, however, a problem to them, is given a solution. So, in the remainder of history, man approaches God as he understands Him. He does so through having something to cover him. This makes him acceptable to God, again within man’s own perception.
-
Blood atonement under the Law of Moses, and Christ’s own blood during the Age of Grace, were also just a covering. They made one acceptable in their eyes to approach God. Moreover, it was stated by God to be acceptable for that approach. However, this was not the sinless state, which comes only by a full revelation of truth. It was rather a stage in eras of time, God’s dealing with man, in order to bring him to the end of the 6th day. It is that full truth that ushers in this day, now upon us, in THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL.

-

Defining the False Prophet:

-

In this condition, perceiving good and evil by our own interpretation, even by our interpretation of God’s very Words, we cannot partake of the tree of life. We are, rather, subject to the third player, the False Prophet. According to Ezekiel 14:1-11, this is of God as well. It is dictated solely on the foundation that we are our own god, knowing good and evil. Thus, God provides answers, using God’s own word, by the False Prophet’s interpretation from that wrong foundation. This is religion indeed. 

-

Moving to the Final Stage and Graduation:

-

We must move past the earlier stages. They are built upon an illusion that we control, by self-determination, freewill, and choice. It only perpetuates the illusion that mankind is a separate entity, apart from God. We fail constantly, needing a covering for that nakedness. This extends to needing religion and ritual for conscience-sake, concerning OUR failures, as we perceive them. This ever opens the door to the False Prophet . . . his false authority . . . to tell us, “thus saith the Lord.” Yet, this is by that False Prophet’s brilliant (not really) conclusions. Here, he manipulates even the Bible, in order to justify his ends.

-

We must move to the sure foundation that God has been in all things. This is the only premise that will bring us to graduation, full Son status, with God as our Father. This is only in potential when we remain under blood atonement. We perceive that to be necessary, in order to cover our sinful state, within our childlike, unenlightened perception. This applies to ANY form and fashion of ANY religion, which purports to make our unacceptable state, as we view it, thus acceptable . . . once completing said regimen, confession, conversion, etc., as our perceived remedy.
-
YET, only upon receiving God’s mindset, the Holy Spirit, can we pass from death unto life, in its fullness. That happened in preview of the finale, when Christ came the First Time, and, specifically, on the Day of Pentecost. It will happen again in all of creation, completed in the Feast of Tabernacles. Specifically, the Last Day, the 22nd Day, the Great Day of the Feast, all creation receives the fullness of the Holy Spirit, once more. This is just like the time that blessing came on Pentecost in 30 CE. In the finale, the end time, we will receive greater application and worldwide envelopment.
-
Meanwhile . . .
-
The events judging Israel are intensifying, bringing her to repentance and the acceptance of God as Sovereign, manifested in proper government of Messiah.  Until then, the morass of theological opinion and religion remains. The way to the tree of life is blocked by God’s Messenger and the Word (Sword of Fire) he carries. It is misunderstood and misinterpreted, as long as the concept of self-determination, freewill, and choice is proclaimed in the hands of false messengers.
