Man: His Fall, The Antidote, His Destiny

 Adam : His Fall, The Antidote, His Destiny

"Genesis  2:20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field..."

Adam was an ordinary man until the spirit of God breathed into him and made him an inspired man, this inspiration made him see the earthly world from the lens of God, his spiritual nature knew the names of all the beasts of the field and he named them accordingly. 

Adam and Eve only had a knowledge of good.The knowledge of evil was kept away from them.

The serpent who was inhabited by Satan the adversary had the knowledge of evil and because he is the apex beneficiary of this knowledge, he sought to trick Adam into his schemes, He achieved this through Eve which was his feeling man. 

What felt new, novel and attractive tingled. 

The knowledge of good and the knowledge of evil are laterally different. 

The moment Adam tasted the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, he became aware of evil and the awareness of evil wills human to act in an evil way. 

Since he was the one who named all animals and living things, whatsoever he named couldn't recognise his fallen nature anymore. 

He named the lion because of its courage and strength but the Lion couldn't recognise Adam because evil saps strength and replaces it with weakness, the Lion soon begun to see Adam as a prey and Adam had to start fleeing when no one pursued him. 

Evil also altered Adam's view of God and his order. 

A woman should give birth with ease, the knowledge of evil changes the order and makes giving birth with difficulty become the order.

A man should not have to toil and sweat to eat in the order where the knowledge of good reigned supreme, but in the order where the knowledge of evil reigned supreme, toiling to eat seemed normal. 

This lateral inversion is exactly what God intended to avoid when he told Adam not to eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil.  

The Restoration of man. 

Once Adam knew what evil meant, evil begun to happen because he started engaging in unconscious actions that caused evil to happen. 

He begun to toil and sweat to feed as against when he was in the garden of eden when he didn't have to toil and sweat to feed because the heavenly father had taken care of all that.

Childbirth delivery wasn't as smooth as it used to be, deadly rivalry that wasn't the case for him and Eve when he was in the garden of Eden begun between his offsprings, Cain and Abel. 

Thus, evil begun its ascent in the material world. 

Man's imagination is powerful, anything man imagines can be birthed on the material earth and nothing - absolutely nothing - can stop it, only a re-direction is possible as in the case when men imagined building a tower that reaches up to heaven and would have succeeded if God hadn't confused their languages. 

Whatsoever evil was then imagined was destined to become a reality. At some point, God was not pleased and decided to end things on the surface by using a flood to wipe the earth which solved the situation temporarily. 

God was informed but the human race was ignorant and lost in the webs of deceit, lies and destruction that evils brought. 

God created work, if men lose their lives all because they want to feed and eat, that wouldn't glorify his name. Child mortalities doesn't glorify his name. Animals destroying man, waters overflowing its banks to wipe out communities, the earth leaving its place and quaking to destroy whatsoever resides on it wasn't the divine order the knowledge of good created. 

After centuries in ignorance and darkness amidst efforts by prophets of God to savage these situations, The Son of God himself decided to make man aware of the original state he fell from and show the race a permanent way out of the sea of ignorance that he is drowned in. 

The Blood. 

The Blood is a representation of life and since there's nothing else that can act in place of the blood, the blood would introduce life into a dead race. 

A dead human body doesn't have blood in it, if the blood is re-introduced alongside the heart, that body gets back to life. 

The shedding of blood of a sinless man was the antidote to setting the human race free from the knowledge of evil and its consequences. 

The shed blood would be the new blood introduced into the body of the human race. 

It had to be the blood of a sinless man because the blood of a sinful man couldn't save himself talkless of others - only what is higher than one can save not what is below one. 

Jesus's sacrifice solved all the issues mankind faced at all levels. 

Some humans are more deeper in the knowledge of evil than others, the sacrifice accounts for all.

It took away the power that the awareness of evil had on the human race, in the past there was no hedge against doing whatsoever evil one thought, there is an hedge in his blood.  

It also restored man back to the days of the garden of Eden, the animals and every living organism could now recognise man, the man vs animal fights stopped, the quakings stopped and the universe went back to the normal order of good as it should be. 

The sacrifice also opened the channels to re-access God, the fall closed off the channels but the ultimate sacrifice re-opened the channels from the human race perspective (God didn't close off the channels, man did). 

The human race also begun to see rightly - the adversary wasn't a friend, the fall was as a result of seeing Satan the adversary, as a friend. 

God isn't an enemy of good as satan the adversary often portrays him to be, God doesn't afflict people as Satan portrays him to be. Satan the adversary has held so much sway over the human race and has distorted the image of the loving heavenly father that humans have turned their backs on the one who means well for them and worshipped the one who doesn't. 

Satan has also mastered the act of giving humans the material blessings they desire to have, in return he asks for loyalty to his programs. 

Jesus came to defeat all these evils and set the kingdom of Good as the sole Kingdom. 

Powers and Principalities. 

The forces that battle in the air and high places battle over good and evil. 

If good prevails on high, good will rule the earth.

If evil prevails on high, evil will rule the earth. 

The human race usually can't decipher which is which because the human race is usually focused on materialistic pursuits only. 

So long as the materialistic blessings are being gotten, a good chunk of the human race is okay. 

But the premise on which the earth is ruled doesn't seem to matter to most humans and that's okay, let the angelic beings and powers triumph at the high places for that is their place of assignment. 

Men who operate at these levels of warfare are usually set apart and are empowered specially by God. 

Is Satan the god or prince of this world?

Satan is an adversary that distorts God's goodness and also seeks to be the chief over the human race.

Satan doesn't care about lives, so long his position is maintained and his grip grows stronger. He kills, He steals and he destroys all in a bid to remain at this position. 

God doesn't kill, doesn't steal and doesn't destroy.

God gives blessings without sorrows attached to them, God wants all good things for the human race.

Can Satan Repent?

His destiny is sealed. He already has a destination which is befitting for him and his angels. 

The fire of falsehood, deceits, and lies make a good home for the adversary and his angels. 

What is the essence of the fight between God and Satan?

Purposes. 

The purposes of God differ from the purposes of  Satan the Adversary. 

If Satan's purposes are different, then his home should be different and match his purposes, the tears he causes the human race by the joy he steals, the havoc he wrecks is found exactly in the hell he is destined to be in. 

The bliss and joy that God the father, the son and the spirit gives the human race is an extension of the city of God, the heavenly Jerusalem.
