WHAT JESUS SAID IN THE BIBLE

GENESIS  CHAPTER  3 3:1  > The serpent, in his Edenic form, is not to be thought of as a writhing reptile. That is the effect of the curse ( GENESIS  3:14 ). The creative which lent itself to Satan may well have been the most beautiful as it was the most "subtle" of creatures less than man. Traces of that beauty remain despite the curse. Every movement of a serpent is graceful, and many species are beautifully coloured. In the serpent, Satan first appeared "as an angel of light" ( 2  CORINTHIANS  11:14 ). 3:14  > The Adamic Covenant conditions the life of fallen man__conditions which must remain till, in the kingdom age, "the creation also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the sons of God" ( ROMANS  8:21 ). The elements of the Adamic Covenant are: ( 1 ) The serpent, Satan's tool, is cursed ( verse  14 ), and becomes God's illustration in nature of the effects of sin__from the most beau...

GENESIS  CHAPTER  2 2:3  > In the Old Testament the same Hebrew word ( qodesh ) is translated sanctify, consecrate, dedicate, and holy. It means, set apart for the service of God. See following "sanctify," Genesis  2:3 2:4  > Lord ( Hebrew Jehovah ).  ( 1 ) The primary meaning of the name Lord ( Jehovah ) is" the self-existent One." Literally ( as in EXODUS  3:14 ), "He that is who He is, therefore the eternal I AM ." But Havah, from which Jehovah, or Yahwe, is formed, signifies also "to become," that is, to become known, thus pointing to a continuous and increasing self-revelation. Combining these meanings of Havah, we arrive at the meaning of the name Jehovah. He is "the self-existent One who reveals Himself." The name is, in itself, an advance upon the name "God" ( El, Elah, Elohim ), which suggests certain attribute of Deity, as strength, etc., rather than His essential being. ( 2 ) It is significant that the...

GENESIS  -  CHAPTER  #  1 1:1  > Elohim ( sometimes El or Elah ), English form "God" the first of the three primary name of Deity, is a uni-plural noun formed El = strength, or the strong one, and Alah, to swear, to bind oneself by an oath, so implying faithfulness. This uni-plurality implied in the name is directly asserted primarily the Strong One it is fitly used in the first chapter of Genesis. Used in the Old Testament about 2500 times. See Genesis  2:4, note 2:7;  24:18, note;  15:2, note;  17:1, note,  21:33,  note,  1  Samuel  1:3,  note.  But three creative acts of God are recorded in this chapter: ( 1 ) the heavens and the earth,  Verses  1;  ( 2 ) animal life, verse  21; and ( 3 ) human life, verses  26__27. The first creative act refers to the dateless past, and gives scope for all geologic ages.  1:2  > Jeremiah  4:23__26,  ISAIAH  2...
