This is a ministry of striving for eternity. One challenge we often see is that Adam and Eve were supposedly promised to die immediately after eating of the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil.

01:28

We see this in Genesis 2 .17. It says, Of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day you eat of it you shall surely die.

01:40

And so people say, well, we have evidence that Adam and Eve ate of that fruit and they didn't die immediately.

01:47

However, we have an issue of which death. That's correct. We often think of physical death and God often thinks of spiritual death.

01:57

So did Adam and Eve die spiritually immediately? The moment Adam ate of that fruit, yes, he did.

02:04

Note that Eve ate of the fruit and gave it to Adam. But the moment Adam ate of the fruit, he recognized that he and his wife were naked.

02:14

And so when God focuses on that, he says, who told you you were naked? Well, the knowledge that they were naked was proof that they fell spiritually.

02:25

They died spiritually. Now, yes, the death process began physically.

02:31

But what did it mean when God said you will surely die? He was speaking in a spiritual nature that they would be spiritually dead.

02:40

That's the state that we're born in. And so he did die immediately spiritually.

02:46

The physical process of death began. And eternal death is something awaiting those who refuse to accept
