Lesson #3 5/14/00
5. What is
the area of blessing seen in these passages?
1:28; 5:2
Ø Principle that is always
true; To choose to operate outside the
framework, the parameters that God has established is to sin!!
Ø True happiness will never be
achieved while operating outside the framework of God's will, ever!
Genesis
chapter 2:18-25 Here we pick up on
God's view of gender!
1. The first thing we need to note before we jump into the context is that God created man 1st.
2. Second
thing to note in regard to the setting here is that as God places man, whom he
just created, into the garden, He does two things in Gen. 2:15-17
- vs:15-16 divine provision,
- vs:17 "But"; there is
responsibility; do not eat of one tree!
