Now we turn to the non-canonical Books of Adam and Eve to explain what happened with original sin — the first sin:
Then Adam wept and
said, "O God, when we dwelt in the Garden, and our hearts were lifted up,
we saw the angels that sang praises in heaven, but now we do not see as we were
used to do; nay, when we entered the cave, all creation became hidden from
us."
Then God the Lord said
unto Adam, "When you were under subjection to Me, you had a bright nature
within you, and for that reason could you see things afar off. But after your
transgression your bright nature was withdrawn from you; and it was not left to
you to see things afar off, but only near at hand; after the ability of the
flesh; for it is brutish." (1 A&E VIII:1-2)
Another explanation is that their
fleshes became sensual. Before, the two had been as God and after sin, like the
Beast to whom they were having intercourse with new knowledge (You fill in the
type of knowledge yourselves while keeping in mind that it comes from the Book
of Genesis, so it was genetic.); they were more instinctive and sought to
appease the fleshly desires.
Now refer to the flipped diagram
of evolution from the last commentary. By flipping the artwork, it is mirrored.
Rather than evolution of ape to man, the chart becomes the evolution of man to
ape. “And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of
the ground an offering unto the Lord” (Gen 4:3). Apes came from man but so did
manlike beings; perhaps Neanderthals and so forth.
Cain was of the Wicked One (1
John 3:12). Cain was genetically of Eve and the Beast. How humiliating is that?
Eve was the “mother of all living” (Gen 3:20) and Cain’s humanity came from
Adam via Eve, since Eve was of the kind, Adam. However, Cain was
also of the Beast and degenerated into the image of the ‘Serpent’ — the Beast.
The Beast was not some snake but
had the cunning like that kind. (Gen 3:1). The Beast was an angelic being that
had rebelled against God, ostensibly rejecting the Image of God that had been
within himself. (Note that personal pronouns are used but the Beast was an ‘It’
(‘Is in the Hebrew), or another kind of existence that was demonic in
nature.
The Beast is called, ‘Satan’ because
the angel, ‘Lucifer’ is an adversary of God (Isa 14:13-14). Satan was
originally only in Cain’s kind genetically, thus ‘Genesis.’ Only God is all-knowing and always present,
but Satan is present in the genes of human beings. Now how meek are you?
The word of Satan is in your genome… in your DNA. With that now known, it should make clear the meaning of Jesus’s Words:
You are of your father
the Devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the
beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When
he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. (John 8:44)
“Stephen, full of faith and power, did
great wonders and miracles among the people” (Acts 6:8) spoke about Jesus, “being
full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the Glory of
God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God” (Acts 7:55).
Jesus is the ‘Glory of God’ but what made
Him so? His body, flesh, and nature are from the very Image of God — a ‘Son’ in the sense of genetics.
How could Jesus be both God and the Son
of God? Not by birth but because the Image, or Genome, of God was in His flesh.
In other words, the DNA of Jesus was the DNA of God, therefor the genesis
of God is what the Bible is all about; Jesus coming into Being was in the process
of time, or ‘genesis.’
With Jesus’s dead, the genesis of the
Old Testament was finished. Jesus finalized the genetics of God when on the
Cross, “He said, ‘It is finished’ and He bowed his head and gave up the ghost”
(John 19:30).
That brings the reader full circle
from the first Adam to the ‘last Adam” (Jesus; 1 Cor 15:45) back to the first
Adam. Adam was not the name of the first man nor the last ‘Man” as Jesus
identified Himself as the ‘Son of Man’ (Mat 8:12). By that, Jesus meant that
both Himself and Adam were of the same genes, or of the same posterity, both
the posterity of God.
Adam and Jesus were both of the gens
of God and made in the Image of God. He and Adam were ‘sons” of God genetically,
and so are all righteous people for even Adam was made righteous by God’s infusion
of His Glorious Genes into his flesh (Gen 2:7).
Sin despoiled the genes of the
female Adam, then she infused mutated genes into Cain. Satan put guile into Eve
and somehow her nature was changed from God’s (Selem) to the Beast’s (Nahas).
The Hebrew word ‘selem’
means a ‘shadow’ or ‘phantom;’ hence Adam and his mate had God within their ‘shadows’
or ‘souls.’
Nahas was the original
Hebrew letter nun, and its hieroglyph is the snake. Therefore, the image
of Lucifer was not a serpent at all; that was only the hieroglyphic for cunningness,
or the nature of the Beast.
The “Beast’ was only a beast
in the sense that its kind was not the Image of God (selem) but another
sly image (Nahas). That explanation should erase the mythological
component of the Judeo-Christian religion.
That is the background for what
comes next: the first Adam was made Glorious. and all the children of Eve ever
since come short of that Glory. In other words, mankind degenerated.
As David so aptly admitted, his
excuse for coming short of the glory of God was that he was “shapen in iniquity”
(Psalm 51:5). He was formed in the womb depraved, and not glorious.
David knew that his flesh was that of the Beast and that sin is genetic. To be
straightforward, ‘mankind’ is no longer mankind but alien to God.
Speaking to the Ephesians Paul
wrote about the Gentiles, “Having the understanding darkened, being alienated
from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them” (Ephes 4:18).
Gentiles are those with the gens
not of the Israelites. They were not chosen nor peculiar people but ordinary
people whose gens were of the Wicked One. Paul knew that they were people
alien to God and that their nature was dark and in the image of the Wicked One.
God had reconstituted the
genetics of the progeny of ‘Father Abraham.’ Because Abram had passed through
the fire of Ur, he was old and impotent. Sarai was barren. Thus, Isaac was
reconstituted as another ‘Adam.’ Gentiles were not reconstituted; they remained
of the Wicked One.
The entire Bible is about
degeneration and regeneration. The deluge of Noah’s day was the destruction of
the genes of the wicked ones because they had become totally depraved and were
wantonly sharing deviant genes with the daughters of men. Giants had shared
their carnal knowledge with the ‘sons of God’ (Gen 6:4), not God’s actual sons,
but the few remaining of Seth’s line with the Genes of God in them.
Thus, the flood was all about man-improvement
just like the blood of Jesus was propitiated for “for sins that are past” —
genetic sins (Rom 3:25).
As Eve pointed out, she and Eve
from the start had bright natures.
In the Books of Adam and Eve,
Adam encountered Satan who explained that it was him who beguiled Eve, posing
as a serpent. He, or ‘it,’ explained to Adam both his fall and why we all fall;
"Therefore did I fall, and did I make you fall by that for which I myself
fell; and with you also, whosoever accepts my counsel, falls thereby” (1A&E
LVII:6). The nature of the Beast got into the Garden, into the female Adam, and
into all of Adam’s kind through Eve. Satan was truthful enough that he admitted
that it was genetic. To be genetic, he must have come unto Eve in the same
manner that the daughters of man were came unto (Gen 6:4).
You should really feel meek by now;
neither you nor anyone else are ‘children of God’ but ‘sons of Satan’ because Satan
is in our genomes! His will is our will, and it is his will that we do
instinctively.
Satan deceived Eve into thinking
that her DNA would make her offspring gods. That was the cunningness that made
him the ‘Serpent.’ Finally, he revealed the truth — they are not gods nor even
belong to God, that they are his progeny.
Since mankind degenerated, they had
not evolved in a positive sense; they had devolved, evolving toward the worse.
The process in time was by the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Something was lost
in the process of time that could not be recovered given no outside energy.
Then came the flood and the lost beings were simply flushed down the drain like
any waste. God had disposed of the carbon-based organisms, and the carbon chain
of Lucifer was broken.
Not only does thermodynamics
refute evolving toward the betterment but so does Holy Scripture. Glorious Adamah
(the male and female) had devolved into inglorious aliens in generations
in the process of time (Gen 5).
Adam devolved in 930 years (Gen
5:5); he went from glorious to dead. His DNA, once eternal, had lost its
potency. It became inglorious with sin, and in one generation, the kind
with dominion was no more.
Adam’s genes were meant to be
dominant but with sin, the Serpent’s became more dominant, and God’s less so,
or recessive. It was not that Adam was totally depraved but enough of the gens
of God made him worth saving.
So, God put onto Adam and Eve
coats of skin (Gen 3:21), implying that he infused their existence with His Genome.
He began the regeneration process which would be finished at the crucifixion
wherein Adam was surely resurrected with Jesus (Mat 27:53). Adam was finally
redeemed by one like he had been in the beginning. Just how was he and Eve in
the beginning?
