Lessons

The lesson on October 18, 2015 was part 1 of the new “Man, His Nature and Destiny” study.  Part one lays the foundation for this study which looks at the create of man and the attributes of the adamic body in relation to his fellowship with God.  In the First Corinthians study we learned much about ressurrection and that will be part of this study.  The primary issues that were established from this first lesson was 1.) the preservation of God’s word.  God said in Matthew 24:35 that heaven and earth will pass away but his word does not.  2.) What is death?  When God told Adam that if he eats of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, in that day he will surely die, what did God mean since Adam died over 900 years later?  3.) In this study, what is our responsibility to proclaim and hold to the truth rightly divided?  The scripture reading was in Genesis 2:18-25 KJV

“18 And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. 19 And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. 20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him. 21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; 22 And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. 23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. 25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.”
