We believe that the God who created the universe is our God. If this is true, then it is most urgent for us to find out how we can get to know this God and how we should follow Him. In other words, on what basis should we believe in God our Creator and follow Him? The answer to this question is the following: We should get to know this God our Creator and follow Him based on His Word written in the Bible. Put differently, only when we realize the Word of God, who made us and has saved us from sin through the gospel of the water and the Spirit, can we really live by faith.

So far, we have shared the Word on what God had done until the sixth day of His creation. Now I would like us to ruminate on the passage about the seventh day of creation. God said in Genesis 2:1-2, “Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished. And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.” It’s said here that on the seventh day God finished making the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them. And as God completed His work of creation, He rested on the seventh day.

A person needs to speak much in order to remove the filth in the heart. A person needs to speak much to have all the filthy things in the heart come out and have them removed from the heart. If one just stays still and doesn’t say anything, the waste is not removed and the toxic poison of such filth accumulates. Filth turns into toxic poison. Then the human heart becomes filled with the toxic poison, and then, only the poison spills out of the person. Of course, you might also make some mistakes when you do a lot of speaking and receive scolding as a result at times, but the filth in your heart is removed and new things come out of it afterwards.

In Genesis chapter two, God outlined the purpose of the creation of the heavens and the earth. It’s written that God breathed the breath of life into man’s nostrils. As man was turned into an immortal being by God, from then on, everyone came to have eternal life.
It’s written that God formed man out of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life. On this account man became a living being. That man became a living being means that he became an immortal being. Therefore when one dies, his body returns to dust, while his spirit returns to God. This means that for those who believe in the gospel of the water and the Spirit, their spirits and bodies will return to God and enter the everlasting Kingdom of Heaven to live there, but for those who don’t believe in this gospel, they will fall into confusion, void, and darkness and be forever trapped there.

God created the Garden of Eden, the Paradise. God created the Paradise and created all kinds of pleasing things in it and asked Adam not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. God said, “In the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.” This implies that the person who does not believe in God’s righteousness cannot live in the Garden of Eden. It also means that only the person who has been born again by God’s Word can live in the Garden of Eden.

In today’s Scripture passage from the Book of Genesis, God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.” As we look at this passage, we can see that God truly didn’t want to live by Himself, but instead, He wanted to forever enjoy the glory together with those of us who believe in the gospel of the water and the Spirit. God didn’t want to live alone in His world, but rather, He wanted to live together with us. Our God wanted to render grace of salvation to sinners and to live together with them amidst eternal glory. God didn’t want to live by Himself in the Kingdom of God. Thus, God revealed His profound intention by making Adam a helper comparable to him and stating that it is not good that Adam should be alone.

How are you doing? Salvation is a gift that only God can give us. And it is available only to those who are aware of their sinfulness. Unless someone’s sin is exposed, he will never yearn to receive salvation from God, as it is written, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick” (Matthew 9:12). For example, even though God had given Cain the mark of salvation, Cain did not believe to the end. When his sin wasn’t exposed, Cain put forth his righteousness, but only after having killed his brother, did he acknowledge his sin. After Cain rose up against Abel his brother and killed him, God said to Cain, “Do you not know you have sinned?” And Cain said, “Yes, You are right,” and then he became downhearted. Because he was downhearted too much, God gave him the mark of salvation. Nevertheless, he did not believe in God and left far away from Him.

Today, we looked at passages from verses 1 through 10 in the Book of Genesis chapter 3, and the passage begins with, “Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made” (Genesis 3:1). It is written like so in the Bible. The serpent mentioned in the Bible refers to the Devil in a spiritual sense. Serpents actually do exist in this world. But I guess serpents must have been wiser than many other creations. The fact that serpents were intelligent and cunning must have been true.
