Cant paul's language in 1 Tim 2 about Eve being deceived, but not Adam, simply be interpreted to mean that eve was deceived first ? the reason i say this is that it seems there is always some element of deception when we sin. Adam was deceived into thinking that the benefits of eating the fruit (i....

The bottom line is that satan obviously knew that he could deceive eve. scripture tells us that eve was deceived but adam was not deceived. My mother used to say, "No, Adam was not deceived. He ate from the tree deliberately with open eyes." If that were, in fact, the case, then why didn't Satan ap...

Maybe the answer is as simple as this - Eve was the person who went and gathered the food for the both of them. Satan capitalized on the moment of weakness. Its kind of like don't go grocery shopping on an empty stomach. That's why you should never let yer wimmin folks go shoppin alone, no tellin w...

the union of a man in wife in scripture tells us many things. the man represents the spirit, (our spirit is supposed to govern us) and the woman represents the flesh. this is why man is the head of woman, the Spirit is supposed to be over the flesh. Satan came at Adam thru his flesh which was eve a...

B- what makes you think that Satan could not have deceived Adam? It still seems like a fortuity to me that he picked on Eve first. TK Look at Paul's argument of why he does not allow a woman to have authority over a man. 1Ti 2:12 But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man,...

Ugggh don't even get me started on Dispensationalism. I was raised in a die hard dispensational independant pentecostal church and came out of the confused teachings of dispensationalism some 11 years ago. I think we should pray for them that God will open their eyes to the truth of His word. person...

Benaiah, You and I seem to agree on the "details" of how things happened. A national and political Kingdom of Israel was never restored (see Acts 1:6). I noticed it for the first time about 4 years ago; how Paul was the very first person mentioned in Acts to specifically preach "Jesus is the Son of...

Rick_C, and those same religious leaders were certainly weeping and gnashing their teeth after the destruction of the temple the city and the nation. The kingdom was taken from them just as Jesus predicted. not just the "spiritual kingdom" but the physical kingdom as well. and they found themselves ...
