Genesis Three…..<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Verses 11-14\u2026.<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Sin brought fear, being afraid, of God. It also brought self centredness\u2026.\u201dI was afraid\u201d; \u201cI heard\u201d; \u201cI\u201d hid from You. God made man to be God centred, and now sin had blotted God out of man\u2019s heart. God says, \u201cYour sins have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid His face from you, that He will not hear.\u201d (Isaiah 59:2) There is only one prayer that God will hear from a person in this condition and that is, \u201cLord, be merciful to me a sinner!\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0\u00a0 God confronted man about his disobedience\u2026He didn\u2019t sweep it under the mat as it were, or make excuses for his weakness\u2026.man had a chance to repent there and then, but what did he do? He made excuse after excuse and admitted nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How often we do the same thing! \u201cNot my fault, I didn’t do it!\u201d or else we lay the blame on someone (or something) else. Adam immediately said, \u201cIt wasn\u2019t my fault, it was the woman that YOU gave me who gave me the fruit!\u201d How weak can a man be! But Eve was no better. She said, \u201cWasn\u2019t MY fault, it was the serpent that made me do it!\u201d Satan made no excuses\u2026.he had achieved his purpose, but the vehicle of his voice (the serpent) was immediately cursed. It was no longer a creature of beauty, but was now a creeping, slithering thing of horror that was hated by all other creatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

   Satan had already fallen in God\u2019s sight, with his place already waiting for him, so he had no reason to make any excuse. He had ruined God\u2019s highest creation and he was satisfied with that for the time being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now man had sinned, he was afraid, And hid in trees that God had made,<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Covered up in leaves that fade, And then faced God in sin unpaid.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
