3. How did God describe Adam and Eve after He had created them? Genesis 1:27-31.
NOTE: ‘God brought forth a perfect world and placed perfect creatures upon it. The record is: “God saw every thing that He had made, and, behold, it was very good” (Genesis 1:31). After the vegetable and animal life were created, man, “the crown of creation,” was brought into existence. He was a being worthy of his Creator, for he was made “in the image of God” (Genesis 1:27) . And God created a companion for Adam, a helpmeet corresponding to him, bone of his bone, flesh of his flesh. They were innocent and perfect, and were free moral agents, capable of understanding righteousness, wisdom, justice, and moral obligation.’ L. E. Froom: The Conditionalist Faith of Our Fathers, volume 1, page 42.
4. What relationship does God always desire to have with man? Exodus 25:8; Revelation 21:3.
NOTE: ‘God commanded Moses for Israel, “Let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them,” and He abode in the sanctuary, in the midst of His people. Through all their weary wandering in the desert, the symbol of His presence was with them. So Christ set up His tabernacle in the midst of our human encampment. He pitched His tent by the side of the tents of men, that He might dwell among us and make us familiar with His divine character and life. Since Jesus came to dwell with us, we know that God is acquainted with our trials and sympathises with our griefs. Every son and daughter of Adam may understand that our Creator is the friend of sinners. “God with us” is the surety of our deliverance from sin, the assurance of our power to obey the law of heaven.’ My Life Today, page 290.
