    Jan 19 2025

    Eden Insight #3. God's SIX-POINT Parallel Word Pattern to the Serpent and to the Man. Why this pattern? They were both first-degree rebels. Each merited a curse. Yet not one point is found in God's words to the woman? Have you noticed?

  • Eden Insight #2. Both ate. Both died. But they chose differently.
    Jan 12 2025

    The Fall is not a biblical word! They were attacked! Each ate. Each died. But each acted from different motivations.

    The woman was deceived. She ate for good reasons.

    He ate rebelliously joining the serpent in rejecting God's words.

    Getting this clearly in mind prepares us for reading what happened next when God spoke to the serpent and to the man using the same six point pattern.

  • Eden Insight #1 The patterns plus the definitions are important.
    Jan 5 2025

    Is it enough to study the word meanings in a Bible passage? Not in a passage like Genesis 2-3! Both the word patterns and the word definitions convey meaning. Perhaps missing these patterns is why there are so many contradictory interpretations of Genesis 2-3. Here we look at Eden Insight #1 and introduce the complex chiasm of Genesis 2-3. Go deeper? Join us for our small group study called "The Eden Workshop on Genesis 2-3." The link is Tru316.com/workshop

  • Vertical submission? Something else? Ephesians 5:24
    Dec 15 2024

    Paul tells Spirit-filled believers to teach and correct one another in Ephesians 5:19b and 20. Then, in verse 21, he tells them to submit to the teaching and correction they are receiving from one another.
    In verse 24a he refers to the church as it submits to the teaching and correction it receives from Christ. And in 24b he refers to the mutual ministry and mutual submission of the Christian couple.

    Go deeper? the book Beyond Eden, Ephesians 5:15-6:9 gives an overview of the entire passage. Discover how Paul uses a Jump, Jump, High Jump pattern as he writes out verses 15-18, 19-21 and 22-6:9. The high point of the passage is 5:32 the great mystery revealed: his joint-body metaphor on the unity of Christ and believers all in one spiritual body!
