2. THE FALL :
Because God created him in his likeness, his soul (which is the self) has the mind,
emotions, will, functions with which man demonstrates his free will (which is the ability to
reason, choose to decide).
Based on these aspects of man, man made the decision to disobey what God had taught
him, he lost communication with his creator, God removed him from his presence and
man lost the spiritual function and was only left acting in the soul function. (mind,
emotions and your will).
CONSEQUENCE OF DISOBEDIENCE
3. REDEMPTION:
This means rescue, meaning once the man sinned, God judged him, but at the same time
promised him that he would do everything possible to rescue him, Genesis 3:15. He also
showed how to do it, when the Lord removed the physical nakedness by killing an animal
and making it clothed with the skin, Genesis 3:21 The next step would also be with the
killing of a lamb, Isaiah 53:4-7, John 1: 29, Revelation 7:10; 5:12. The Lord Jesus is
compared to a lamb.
When Jesus Christ comes to earth, he does so so that man can return to community with
God (Explain John 3:1-7). Preach the gospel telling us how we are born again searching,
learning, John 5:39, John 5:15.
When the person becomes aware of his situation and receives Christ, the Holy Spirit
returns to its original place in man to the spirit of man and if we feed our spirit with prayer,
fasting, attending church and groups to feed ourselves of the word and anointing of the
Holy Spirit We grow spiritually, but if we do not do so we die spiritually.
The soul (The self - fallen nature) remains alive to the extent that we allow the Holy Spirit
to control and subdue it so that it does not practice what displeases God. Colossians 3:5-
10. Galatians 5:19-21
