Rejoicing and Praising Jesus Christ Forum!When did Adam and Eve know the difference?Did God act angry with them? He could have just killed them on the spot but he showed mercy to them. The law says if you drive down the road at 140 miles a hour you will lose your license. God offered us a way to get our license back at Calvary! It's called mercy! It's sorta like telling kids not to touch the hot stove but they always do! Moses also gave the same thing to the Jews, it's called the Law. The tree of knowledge of good and evil = The Law given by Moses. Romans 3:20. Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. The entire OT is an example of the Jews with the Law plainly before them and they knew the difference but choose not to obey. He knew they would, the same as he knows every single choice you will make or have made your entire life. Romans 9 20. Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? 21. Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? 22. What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: 23. And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory, Was it for God's benefit or for Adams? It made Adam aware of his sinful condition and led him from shame to guilt and then to repentance. "Adam where are you?" verse 9 to "Who told you that you was maked?" verse 11 to "Have you eaten of the tree?" verse 11 to "What have you done?" verse 13 Who did Adam blame for this? Who did Eve blame? |
