Creator and Blogger God 3 Lesson and solution

Creator and Blogger God

History of the development

Creating into His image according to His likeness

Doubt

It were God’s Words which were spoken out over the earth which were heard by man. He was free to listen to Them and could chose what to do with Them. But there it went wrong, early at the beginning. The created man doubted the right of power of his Creator.

In their head the coiling in their head brought a twist in their brain. They were wrapped around by their thinking, wondering if it would really be so that in case they would eat from the one special tree in the middle of the garden that God said, ‘Don’t eat from it; don’t even touch it or you’ll die.’” They would lose their life. They knew their Creator and His Power, but wanted to see everything what was really going on. Though created in the image they knew that they were not just like God, knowing everything, ranging all the way from good to evil. And they would have loved to have the same knowledge as their Creator” When the Woman saw that the tree looked like good eating and realized what she would get out of it — she thought to be able to know everything — she took and ate the fruit and then gave some to her husband, and he ate.  Immediately the two of them did “see what’s really going on” — saw themselves naked! They became ashamed, knowing that they were just fragile beings, never to be as powerful nor knowledgeable as their Creator.

Eve gives the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of which she had eat to her Husband (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

“1  now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which Jehovah god had made. and he said to the woman, [is it] so that god has said, you shall not eat of every tree of the garden? 2 and the woman said to 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 middle of the garden, god has said, you shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die. 4 and the serpent said to the woman, you shall not surely die, 5 for god knows that in the day you eat of it, then your eyes shall be opened, and you shall be as god, knowing good and evil. 6  and when the woman saw that the tree [was] good for food, and that it was pleasing to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make wise, she took of its fruit, and ate. she also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. 7 and the eyes of both of them were opened. and they knew that they [were] naked. and they sewed fig leaves together and made girdles for themselves.” (Genesis 3:1-7 MKJV)

This time God His voice did not sound as lovable as before, because it thundered and asked them to show their nakedness and to come out in their shame, but they did not dare. Forgetting that God is everywhere and sees everything, they tried to hide for Him, to no avail.

“8 and they heard the voice of Jehovah god walking in the garden in the cool of the day. and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Jehovah god in the middle of the trees of the garden. 9  and Jehovah god called to Adam and said to him, where [are] you? 10 and he said, I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I [am] naked, and I hid myself.” (Genesis 3:8-10 MKJV)

A solution for the future

As soon as the first man and woman (mannin) had gone against the teachings and instruction (Law) of God the Creator had compassion and provided a solution, though He had to continue to give them the penalty He had told beforehand they should get when not listening to Him.

It was like God declared war between the thinking and the human being, between the offspring of the man and woman. From that moment onwards the woman would get multiplied pains in childbirth and though she would want to please her husband, the man was going to lord over her. The man because he listened to his wife and ate from the tree that God commanded not to eat from, getting food from the ground was going to be as painful as having babies is for his wife and he was going to be working in pain all his life long, as was the woman. Humans were going to sweat to make their living until they were going to return to that ground themselves when their life came to an end after some years. Death and buried; man started out as dust or dirt, and now they shall end up dirt. The Man, known as Adam, named his mannin wife Eve because she was the mother of all the living.

“15 and I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; he will bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel. 16 to the woman he said, I will greatly increase your sorrow and your conception. in pain you shall bear sons, and your desire shall be toward your husband, and he shall rule over you. 17  and to Adam he said, because you have listened to the voice of your wife and have eaten of the tree, of which I commanded you, saying, you shall not eat [of] it! the ground [is] cursed for your sake. in pain shall you eat of it all the days of your life. 18 it shall also bring forth thorns and thistles to you, and you shall eat the herb of the field. 19 in the sweat of your face you shall eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. for dust you [are], and to dust you shall return. 20  and Adam called his wife’s name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.” (Genesis 3:15-20 MKJV)

Lessons for later generations

Adam and Eve, godlike, with a nature akin to God, were cast out of the Garden of Eden and had to start a family under more harsh times than the blessed time they had in the Paradise. Whatever happened God continued to guide them and found it important that future generations would know what happened. So He asked descendants of Adam and Eve to write down the history of the family tree of the human race. The Words God gave to His creations could show the people how Jehovah God worked wonders that have never been created in all the Earth, in any nation, so that all the people with whom we are living will see how tremendous God’s work is, the work He’ll do for us.

“and Jehovah said to Moses, write these words for yourself; for on the mouth of these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.” (Exodus 34:27 MKJV)

“and Moses wrote all the words of Jehovah, and rose up early in the morning, and built an altar below the mountain and twelve pillars according to the twelve tribes of Israel.” (Exodus 24:4 MKJV)

“and he said, behold! I make a covenant. before all your people I will do marvels such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation. and all the people in whose midst you [are] shall see the work of Jehovah, for it [is] an awesome thing that I will do with you.” (Exodus 34:10 MKJV)

“1 this [is] the book of the generations of Adam. in the day that god created man, he made him in the likeness of god. 2 he created them male and female, and blessed them. and he called their name man in the day when they were created. 3 and Adam lived one hundred and thirty years and fathered [a son] in his own likeness, after his own image. and he called his name Seth.” (Genesis 5:1-3 MKJV)
