In six days God RENEWED th
e
face of the
e
arth (Ps. 104:30). God set
out to REPRODUCE HIMSELF THROUGH MAN!
On th
e
6th d
a
y of this re-cr
e
ation, God form
e
d MAN of th
e
dust of th
e
ground, out of m
a
tter. Th
e
MAN, Adam, was composed of matter. But God
form
e
d him and his wif
e
with human MINDS--capable of absorbing knowl
e
dg
e
,
and of r
ea
soning and making decisions.
God gav
e
Adam th
e
opportunity to SIT ON Lucifer's throne--IF Adam,
fully instruct
e
d by God, would r
e
j
e
ct th
e
ways of Satan, and acc
e
pt GOD'S
WAY--that of GOD'S LAW! But Adam reb
e
lled against God, and chose to go HIS
OWN WAY--not realizing, perhaps, h
e a
nd his human rac
e
would b
e
l
e
d and
sw
a
y
e

God pronounced s
