THE ESSENCE OF ADAM`S SIN.

I don’t think there is need of me repeating the story of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden unless am talking to Sunday school kids, I guess you all know it .to many including the clergy this story echoes fear and it means probably the beginning of man’s suffering to date.
However, to me some good, in fact a lot better things resulted from Adam’s sin. By the way, every body is entitled to freedom of expression, then why do you think am going nuts. Better if you read ahead. Come on maybe I should as well tell you that there is nothing good or bad only thinking makes it so. That’s William Shakespeare the all generations challenging writer.

Focusing on the issue, Adam’s sin brought to earth more good than harm. In fact it should cease being called a sin rather it should be called a mistake. Yes. When you read the first three chapters in the book of Genesis keenly you see that law and order was enacted for the purposes of disciplining stubborn men who never cared to observe the laws which bring about order hence peace in the society. Is this the case today? Those distort peace are catered for in the appropriate way. May be if it wasn’t that all people would have been immoral, arrogant and disrespectful.

Though God gave it as a punishment to Adam but he wanted us to emulate him as a worker. God worked tirelessly for six consecutive days without even a single minute to rest. Creating the world and all that is in it. So we should not take work as a curse besides we should just thank God for allowing us follow his example. By the way how could expect us to be like him without doing the things he did or does. God is a worker so man must as well work for both heaven and earth for the glory of his creator. See! I think now you get me well?

Before Adam and eve ate that fruit, man wasn’t wise. But after having a taste on the so called fruit of wisdom, man became wise, and got the knowledge to differentiate between good and bad. At least today one can differentiate between glasses from grass, splash from trash, name it.
More so today man knows who the enemy is DEVIL. We wouldn’t have know such if Adam didn’t eat the fruit.

Hey, do not tell me this action brought about death. Just imagine if there was no death o n this so small a planet where the population increases on such rocket speed, what would have happened? Iam not advocating for death get me right. I just told you to imagine have you? You as well take it to your understanding that it is only through death that man is able to meet his creator, it is just a “medium of transport”. At this point, if it was my primary teacher he would ask “Are we together, do you get the point?” and all that.

If you want to know if your son or daughter loves you then try to trick him or her .this is the case with God. He just wanted to see how man loves him. Those who love God work for him mainly by avoiding sin through prayer. Yes when you try to avoid sin your love for God increases and vice versa which is a very good thing.
When Adam and his wife sinned, man’s relationship with God was cut off they lost communication. That is very true. But hey, God immediately arranged to send his son to restore the broken line. He did this when he called Abraham whom he loved so much and through other several prophets and messengers until when his son came to earth in the father likeness where he spend a period of thirty three years. in fact, in form of a human being. Really we would have missed this golden chance of seeing the son of man if Adam and eve never made that mistake.bytheway who knows if it was God’s own plan? Though you still hold a feeling that it is a curse, to me it is a blessing in disguise. Ciao
