How did Adam & Eve die?
Hello everyone. Today I answer the question "How did Adam and eve die" from George Warui.
They died of natural cause. SIN!
Then Patricia Harris followed up to ask me this question: "yes but WHEN DID THEY DIE?"
Eve died the very moment she sinned in her heart to disobey God.
Adam died the very moment he sinned in his heart to disobey God.
If you are asking me regarding their physical age, that is immaterial as the Lord God had plans for them. He allowed them to continue living physically to bring the Messiah into the world.
Therefore what is the real answer to this question? God allowed all things to happen for three distinct purposes.
1. To reveal His attributes
2. To reveal His reconciliation plan
3. To reveal His Redeemer
God allowed sin and evil for the praise of His Glory. Will you listen to the scriptures.
Ephesians 1:3-12
Redemption in Christ
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, ACCORDING TO THE GOOD PLEASURE OF HIS WILL, TO THE PRAISE OF THE GLORY OF HIS GRACE, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.
In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, having made known to us THE MYSTERY OF HIS WILL, ACCORDING TO HIS GOOD PLEASURE WHICH HE PURPOSED IN HIMSELF,
(Now listen carefully as the Lord explains this)
that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, BOTH WHICH ARE IN HEAVEN AND WHICH ARE ON THE EARTH—IN HIM. In Him also we have obtained an inheritance,
(When did this happen?)
BEING PREDESTINED ACCORDING TO THE PURPOSE OF HIM WHO WORKS ALL THINGS ACCORDING TO THE COUNSEL OF HIS WILL, that we who first trusted in Christ SHOULD BE TO THE PRAISE OF HIS GLORY!!!!!
There is your answer given directly from the mouth of God.
No sin - no forgiveness. No evil - no mercy. No wickedness - no long suffering and forbearance. How else would we know for certain that these attributes of God are true if none of these things were not present in the world.
God, through His wisdom has revealed Himself throughly through allowing evil to exist yet He did not create nor does He sanction evil, sin, nor wickedness.
The Lord then showed Himself mercifully, just, and righteous by dying, shedding His own blood, thereby paying the righteous and just penalty of death for ungodly, wicked, totally depraved, dead in trespasses and sins, children of the devil, wretched, God hating, guilty, death deserving sinners like me.
Raising Himself from the dead giving life to some of the guilty sinners and giving perfect righteous justice to the remaining guilty sinners.
All the sinners guilty and deserves to be casted into hell but God who is rich in mercy and grace determined according to His own purpose and will to save some.
That’s the gospel my friend.
