Topic: Learning From the Temptation of Eve.
Memory Verse: And the Serpent said into the woman You shall not die, For God know that in the day you eat there off, then your eyes shall open – Gen 3:4-5.
Lesson: Since temptation is something that everyone face and struggle against every day. It is necessary that we understand how it present itself in our lives, we can gain much in sight in the nature of temptation from the first temptation in Gen 3:1-6 when the Serpent comes to Eve in the Garden in Eden. If we are going to understand temptation, we must first understand the temper. As Genesis identifies the temper as serpent: Gen 3:1.
The temper came to Eve to destroy the future God has for both her and her husband Adam. – Gen 1:28.
The serpent is compared to other beasts of the field, yet characterized by crafty, Spoiler, Jealousy, Envier – Rev 12:9, Gen 3:1-5, 11 Cor 3:11, Matt 10:16.
The wisdom woman was loose so she can be deceived. The Bible later identifies this particular serpent as Satan – Rev 12:9 ,Rev 20 :2, 11nd Cor 11: 3,14. As a believer we need very conscious of Satan device so we are not out willed by his trick – 11 Cor 2:11 , for his native that of being a liar – John 8:44
So, Eve exaggerates what God had forbidden, neither shall you touch it lest you die – Gen 2:11, Gen 3:3. Yet knowing enough what god dislike. Eve should have responded, this is Ede an. God made it, and it is very good. So, many of our woman in the Christendom has messed up their lives not knowing it will lead to the dead of their husband.
THE CONSEQUENCES
These are always consequences when we give to temptation as Adam and eve found out : Gen 3:13-19.
Eve gave in because she saw that tree was good.
