2:17 is a lie, Adam and Eve, did not die, they lived for hundreds of
years...”

Bible
Answer:
Bible Texts:
Genesis
2:17 KJV
But
of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of
it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
How careful we must be, when we interpret The Word Of
The Lord.
Adam and Eve, did die the day, they ate the forbidden
fruit!
It was never said, that they would die physically that
day, the fact is they died that day, spiritually.
“Pastor
are you saying, that there are people walking around today, that are
dead?”
Spiritually dead, yes!
We see so many in society, given to drink, and drugs,
and why? Because they have nothing to live for.
God, has been shut out of their lives. Their soul, cries
out for The Lord, but it's a voice not listened to.
Proverbs
8:36 KJV
But
he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they
that hate me love death.
Spiritual
Death:
Ezekiel
18:4,20 KJV
4
"...the soul that sinneth, it shall die."
20
The soul that sinneth, it shall die..."
Ephesians
2:1 KJV
And
you hath He quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
Colossians
2:13 NLT
You
were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not
yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for He forgave all
our sins.
Adam and Eve, were given a means to cover their
sins....and they reached out for it.
Genesis
3:21 NLT (Innocent Blood Shed- A type of future Savior.)
And
the Lord God made clothing from animal skins for Adam and his
wife.
Hebrews
9:22 NLT
In
fact, according to the law of Moses, nearly everything was purified
with blood. For without the shedding of blood, there is no
forgiveness.
Dear friends, keep reading the wonderful Word Of The
Lord, and keep praying, and reaching out to those who do not know
Him. There are wonderful rewards coming for those who will!
Prayer:
Matthew
9:37,38 KJV
37
Then saith He unto His disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but
the laborers are few;
38
Pray ye therefore The Lord Of The Harvest, that He will send forth
laborers into His harvest.
