I believe, after much study, that this verse means exactly what it says. During the time of temptation, Eve fell for the servants lie hook, line, and sinker. Adam knew better, (not deceived) but he willing ate, and suffered the same fate. It shows clearly that one can sin through temptation, or...

1Tim. 2- 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. 15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.

Thank you for your measured, factual response.

I thought that one’s motives determined the acceptance of a particular behavior. Kinda like Paul saying that we know there is no God but God the Father, so meat the pagans sell in the market sacrificed to their pretend gods is ok to eat, if one’s conscience doesn’t bother them.

If you think by using the language of the times that the purity of God’s message is somehow lost, then I challenge you to come up with another way that God could explain Himself. I think He is perfectly able to convey His majesty with or without any language ever devised.

Then there is this: Col. 2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

We thirst for righteousness, but we must first be made alive, by the Bread of Life.

Who was His audience, and why did He relate these stories?

That’s the goulash I referred to earlier. All Scripture has one primary meaning, with many applications.

Parables convey truths. To interpret the woman in this parable as being the Holy Spirit, is stretching this story beyond the limits of any rubber band I have encountered.

A woman lights a candle? What Bible are you reading?

There is something going on the the heart of an unbeliever that only God can see. Whenever they become positive towards the word of God(the Gospel), He steps in. What was it that made the prodigal son return to his father?

Thy were unbelievers, till they believed.

Romans 1:16 (KJV) [16] For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

I got an article on “Hypnotizing Chickens,” if anyone want’s to know more.Is that evil also?

Goulash anyone?

So, by that logic God must not be a good teacher, because many will not heed His teaching.

This is where we disagree: Yes, the term "everything" would encompass space when used in a broad, all-inclusive sense. Space is part of the totality of existence and reality, so it is included within the scope of the word "everything." Space refers to the vast expanse or extension in which all...

Everything was created by Him, everything in heaven and on earth, everything seen and unseen, including all forces and powers, and all rulers and authorities. All things were created by God's Son, and everything was made for Him.
