(15) Adam and Eve
Adam was born by the clay
in the earth, was a living soul.『And the LORD God formed
man of the dust of the ground, and breathed
into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.』(Genesis 2:7)
Adam represents the
representation of angels who have sinned in the kingdom of God. It was the
first living being by clay that crime angels would enter into. Adam lived in
the world, was died. God put Adam in the garden of Eden. Adam was showed such
as the symbol of the angel who sinned in the kingdom of God through the garden
of Eden. He was a spiritual being in the kingdom of God, but also became human
being in the material world. Jesus was also the Lord God in the kingdom of God,
but he came to this world in the form of a sinner to save the spirit. 『Nevertheless
death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the
similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.』(Romans 5:14)
God took one of
Adam's ribs and made Eve by it. Eve was born in the garden of Eden from the
beginning. Adam was born in the world, but Eve was born in the garden of Eden.
Adam and Eve were spiritual beings who sinned in the kingdom of God, but they
was born in the garden of Eden, became spiritual beings from birth. But Eve who
had been tempted by the serpent, ate the fruit of the tree to be become like
God, and she gave it to Adam. So Adam also ate the fruit, so they were both
driven out of the garden of Eden.
The garden of Eden
symbolizes the kingdom of God on earth. In this land, the kingdom of God will
become church. Speaking figuratively, someone went to church with the help of others.
But he abandoned God's word and liked the world because of his evil thoughts.
He was driven out of church. someone came to church, but if he loses in the
battle against Satan, he is expelled from the kingdom of God.
『That
ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word,
nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man
deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a
falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who
opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is
worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself
that he is God.』 (II Thessalonians 2:2-4)
So we have to fight against Satan. The apostasy
eventually fell down by Satan's temptation and became a follower of Satan.『He
that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not
blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before
my Father, and before his angels.』(Revelation 3:5)
Those recorded in the book of life of the kingdom of God will overcome Satan. 『The one who fights and wins Satan is wearing a full armor. Put on
the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the
devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against
spiritual wickedness in high places.』(Ephesians
6:11-12)
