The story of the fall of man from a perfect paradise to a place of sin and misery and death begins with an attack on God's word, leading to an attack on God's character, and ultimately justifying disobedience. The serpent, identified as Satan, tempts Eve by questioning the veracity of God's word, and she responds with inaccuracies and a minimizing of the penalty for disobedience. This leads to a rationalized disobedience that can only be remedied by God. [... more]

The Garden of Eden

Life in Eden before the fall was a perfect paradise where God created man and woman to worship, work, and live in harmony with each other and with God. The creation account in Genesis 2 highlights the importance of worship, work, marriage, and innocence, and how sin has ruined everything. God's purpose for man is to worship and work, and marriage is a sacred institution that reflects God's relationship with His people. The loss of innocence and the introduction of shame are a result of sin, but God's promise to redeem and restore creation through Jesus Christ offers hope for a return to paradise. [... more]

Trouble in Paradise | Handcrafted by God

God created Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, a paradise beyond anything imaginable, where they had a perfect relationship with Him. Adam was given the task of naming the animals, but something was missing in his life - a someone. God created woman from Adam's rib, and they became one flesh. Marriage begins with leaving other relationships and cleaving to one another, with intimacy, closeness, and friendship. A successful marriage requires a man and woman to be joined together, with the husband loving his wife as Christ loves the church, and the wife submitting to her husband as unto the Lord. [... more]

Where Are They Now? (Pt. 2)

The Bible teaches that after death, souls go to one of two places: paradise, a temporary place of comfort for believers, or Hades, an intermediate hell for the unsaved. The decision we make in this life determines our eternal destination, and it's irreversible. Jesus' presence and the permanence of personal decisions are crucial aspects of understanding what happens after we die. [... more]

Where Are They Now? (Pt. 1)

The Bible teaches that when we die, our souls go to one of two places: paradise, a temporary heaven for the righteous dead, or Hades, an intermediate hell for the unrighteous dead. Jesus' story of the rich man and Lazarus illustrates this concept, showing that the rich man ended up in Hades, tormented by his memories of rejecting God, while Lazarus was comforted in paradise. The Bible also teaches that at the judgment of the great white throne, Hades will be emptied and its inhabitants sent into the lake of fire, eternal hell. Meanwhile, believers who die go to paradise, which has been transferred to heaven by Jesus, where they await the resurrection of their bodies. [... more]

The Bible teaches that death is a one-time event, and after we die, our souls and spirits will spend eternity in either torment or paradise. Jesus' teachings on the afterlife are found in passages such as Luke 16 and Luke 23, where he describes hell as a place of torment and paradise as a place of comfort. The Bible also teaches that Jesus went down into hell and preached to the spirits in prison, leading them to faith in him. [... more]
