THE FALL OF MAN (1)

Man fell through Adam and chose to disobey God and believe the lies of the devil. Adam changed the course of the human race by falling into sin. Romans 5:12 says;

“Wherefore as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned”

Everything that has ever found its way onto this planet had gone through a conception and birthing process. Sin was birth through Adam so also was righteousness through our Lord Jesus Christ in other words; there is absolutely nothing, visible or non-visible that wasn’t born one way or the other.

Hence, how did satan successfully impregnate Adam before he birth sin? Satan made Adam to believe the following about God:

a.     That God was a liar, Gen 3:4

b.    That God was deceitful and did not really have the love of His creatures at heart, Gen 3:5. Also that He had no plan for their improvement

c.     That God was unfair by not giving them that which was their ultimate good

d.    Denied the essence of God’s character i.e. truth and righteousness

e.     Blasphemed God, spoke irreverently about God and painted Him in bad light

Unfortunately, many in the body of Christ still fall to these same tricks today. You will agree with me that the same tricks satan want to floor Jesus with in Matthew 4:3-11 are still as potent as ever in the devil hands today in flooring believers. That is why scripture admonishes that we are watchful and prayerful. Do not be a victim of false teachings but be delighted in the Word of God. Read, Study, Memorize, Meditate and do it; I believe by so doing you will be pregnant with truth and righteousness and there will be no room for the devil’s lies. Tomorrow we’ll be looking at the consequences of the fall of man. God bless you.
