51. What conclusion can you draw from Adam's obedience to Eve's eating forbidden fruit
Answer: henpecked
First: human sin (original sin) is hereditary.
Second: human fear of wife (original fear of wife) is also genetic.
To be truly happy, a human family must have a good relationship with God. This relationship should be chosen by itself, not reluctantly maintained( Deuteronomy 30:15-20; Joshua 24:15) the Lord wants people to obey him, but people must do so from their heart and love( Deuteronomy 6:5) so the LORD made a provision in the garden of Eden that the first man had the opportunity to prove his loyalty. God told Adam, "you can eat the fruit of all kinds of trees in the garden, but you can't eat the fruit of the tree of good and evil. If you eat it, you will die."( Genesis 2:16) this tree symbolizes that the wise creator has the right to decide what is good and what is evil. The Lord gave Adam a suitable wife, so Adam told his wife Eve the command of God.
Then one day, a snake (the revelation of the Bible shows that the original Snake, called the devil and Satan, deceived people all over the world - Revelation 12:9). This spiritual creature deliberately made himself a devil (slander) and Satan (enemy). He was seduced and tempted by his own selfish desires in an attempt to enjoy the status of God, so he rebelled against the creator-- James 1:14.
Satan, the devil, seduced Eve and said, "you will not die if you eat the fruits of distinguishing good from evil. You will be able to distinguish good from evil like God."-- Genesis 3:4, 5) he seems to claim that God has left some good things for you. You can eat the fruit of the tree and decide what is good and what is evil like God.
Adam ate the fruit, but his wife ate it, but she listened to Adam's words. As a result, they lost their paradise, Adam worked all his life, Eve increased the pain of pregnancy and childbirth, and the Lord punished women: "you will love your husband, and your husband will rule over you." However, the fear of wife gene inherited from human ancestors is as unshakable as the original sin. So far, "strict wife management" can be found everywhere, which was unexpected by the Lord.
52. Who killed the first in history?
Answer: God.
Gen 3:21 "the LORD God made garments of leather for Adam and his wife and clothed them."
Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit and felt ashamed of being naked. They covered themselves with leaves, but God refused to accept the clothes they had made.
Because God wants to teach them that they cannot be accepted by God by acting in their own way. God only accepts to act in his way, and only he can provide them with the clothes he is willing to accept.
God kills animals
The first thing that sin against God brings is death.
God killed the animal to make the blood flow out, and then peeled the animal's skin, which Adam and Eve did not do. God's purpose was to warn Adam and Eve that their disobedience would bring death to the world. God wants them to always remember that the price of sin is death. God is holy, just and just. He judges death as the price of sin. The Bible clearly points out that blood will flow because of sin.
(the first murder in history was that Cain, the eldest son of Adam, killed his brother Abel. Since then, mankind began to kill each other.)
53. God's creation Q & A
Q: How did man and the universe come from?
A: it was created by God. There must be a craftsman and a creator in the world.
Q: who is God?
A: it is the creator, the creator and ruler of the universe. It is an eternal, sacred, omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent and personal God.

A: God is his own, forever, past, present and forever. It is the cause of all causes, the first cause and the first driving force.
Q: where is God?

Q: Why did God create the world?
A: in order to show his power, to have an object of love, the object of his love, the object of his love, let the creator praise him and glorify him.
Q: can I meet God?
A: in the face of objective rationality, only through the flight of faith can we meet infinite God.
Q: are we created to live in the world for a purpose?
A: believe in God, praise God, glorify God, maintain communication with God, obtain eternal spiritual happiness, and always enjoy God.
Q: no other (such as material) purpose?
A: No, people don't live for crabs, villas and beauties. Solomon, the king of wisdom, came to the conclusion that everything is empty, "it is man's duty to fear God and keep his commandments"-- Ecclesiastes 12:13
Q: I admit that there is God, but why do humans suffer so much? Is God irresponsible?
A: all this is bound to happen. God planned everything infinitely long ago, including the wonderful redemption plan designed because of his love. The plan included sending his son to the world as a redeemer to save all those who believed in him. He has three great and unified forgiveness and salvation plans in order to perfect the limited human (the body derived from the earth).
First plan: God created Adam's body with clay, and breathed his anger into his nostrils, and he became a living soul. But Adam, after all, had an earthy (material) body and could not have the limitations of spiritual life like God (spiritual body and spirit). To give human true happiness, we must increase human spiritual power and overcome the power of material (earthy body). If we do not give human suffering and give human life fruits and separate good and evil fruits directly in the garden of Eden, due to the root of human evil, human beings will be self righteous, do not know God's grace, do not give all the glory to God, owe God's glory, and do not take God as joy, not only does God's desire to create the world fail, but human beings can not be really happy, At most, it is a group of self righteous "old immortals".
So the ancient snake (Satan, God's tool, created by God and controlled by God) lured Eve and Adam to eat the forbidden fruit, committed a crime, was expelled from the garden of Eden, began suffering, and brought sin and death to future generations. God wants human beings to know that they have original sin - the earth body, although intelligent, still has limitations. Without God's word, they can only lose.
The second plan: the Son Jesus is incarnated. His mother Mary is a virgin. Jesus lives in the world as a perfect person. He was crucified, died and buried, and his death guaranteed atonement. Rise three days after death and ascend to heaven. There he sat on the right hand of the Holy Father. One day he will come back to the world with the glory of victory.
After Jesus preached for three and a half years and ascended to heaven, the Holy Spirit came and lived in our hearts forever. In this way, God lives among us. The Holy Spirit makes us know our sins, prays for us, and helps us follow God's will in various ways. Jesus said, "the gospel of the kingdom of heaven will be spread all over the world as a witness to all the people, and then the end will come."
Now there are 2 billion Christians in the world (Catholics are Christians in a broad sense). The gospel has not been spread all over the world. More importantly, the gospel has not been really accepted. Hitler said: "I am and will always be Catholics". The Nazis (Catholics) prayed while slaughtering.
Now, under the action of separating good and evil fruits (wisdom fruits), human material civilization has made great achievements, but human beings still pay attention to the poor material civilization from the earth, spiritual life has made no progress, and spiritual life is becoming increasingly vulgar. God wants human beings to understand that without God's way, they can't find their own purpose of life and can't be happy.
The third plan: Ge Yimin God came into the world to spread the new Gospel of Ge God. Mankind will give all the glory to God, take God as the only happiness, rebuild communication with God, regain God's love and neighbor's love, make a complete atonement, and build a loving kingdom of God.
2 Peter: "some people think that the Lord's promise has not been fulfilled. In fact, it is not delay, but tolerance. I don't want anyone to sink, but let everyone repent."
Everyone believes in God, loves as himself, at least not against anyone, everyone gives glory to God, and finally god gets all glory.
Q: how do you know that the so-called three plans come from God?
A: Romans 8:20, 21 of the Bible says, "the created beings are subject to the situation of futility, not out of voluntariness, but because God makes them subject to this situation. However, there is still hope for all sentient beings, that is, all created sentient beings will be released, no longer enslaved by corruption, but will enjoy the freedom of the glory of God's children. "
Yes, God hopes that the first pair of human offspring will eventually get rid of the sin and death inherited by their ancestors and restore a close relationship with God.
Q: what is the kingdom of God?
A: one word - love. God is love. The Lord Jesus summed up the law of the Lord to love God and love as yourself. St. Paul said that there is faith, hope and love, the greatest of which is love. But now, what we lack most is love.
Of course, there are fruits of life, new heaven and new earth, no more death, a real paradise.
Q: what are we doing in Xintian Xindi?
A: "God... Puts the eternal consciousness in the hearts of the world, so that people will never explore God's actions from beginning to end."-- Ecclesiastes 3:11" We can observe, learn and appreciate the wonderful works of the Lord forever. "-- Psalm 19:1-4; 104:24; 139:14.
Q: how can we get the kingdom of God?
Answer: Jesus Christ said, "if they continue to absorb knowledge, know your only true God, and know Jesus Christ you sent, they can live forever."( John 17:3)
Note that the most important thing is to have love. In the New Testament, several different Greek words are translated into "love", in which "Agape" means a kind of love that is willing to take others as the center and does not require merit and return. God loves all mankind with this love, and Christians are encouraged to love each other with this love. Jesus said, "love one another as I love you. This is my command."( John 15:12).
