Expository, Genesis, Old Testament, Pentateuch

GENESIS 3 – INTIMACY RESTORED

BEFORE THE FALL – Genesis 1:26-28, 31, Genesis 2:18-25, Genesis 3:8

Adam and Eve were made in the image of God. They were in a perfect environment which we call “Paradise”. They were innocent. They had intimacy or closeness to God.

 THE FALL – Genesis 3:1-7

Intimacy was lost when Adam and Eve disobeyed God.

AFTER THE FALL – Genesis 3:8-24

  1. God’s Pursuit – Genesis 3:8-14
  2. God’s Promise – Genesis 3:15 – Eve’s Seed (Jesus) would defeat Satan.
  3. God’s Penalties – Genesis 3:16-19, Genesis 3:22-24
  4. God’s Payment – Genesis 3:20-21, 1 Peter 1:18-19, Hebrews 10:4, Hebrews 10:10-14,
  5. God’s Presence – Hebrews 10:19-23, John 15:1-7

Because of the Word of the Lord Jesus the intimacy is restored for those who trust Him as Savior.
