Mysteries Revealed - ETMH Section 27 - What Was Adam's Sin?
Could the original sin be far more complex and profound than eating a forbidden fruit? In today's episode, we explore the serpent seed doctrine and its controversial claim that Adam and Eve's fall involved a significant sexual transgression. Drawing from Brother Branham's teachings, we argue that Eve's premature engagement with the serpent led to a hybrid offspring, fundamentally altering humanity's path. We contrast the laws of human reproduction with those of the animal kingdom, highlighting the divine intention behind human multiplication and the critical importance of adhering to God's appointed time.
Next, we journey into the aftermath of humanity's fall from grace, reflecting on God's decision to guard the tree of life with an angel, preventing humans from attaining immortality. We'll paint a vivid picture of the Garden of Eden as a paradise where heaven and earth were once united and examine the severe consequences of being barred from this divine presence. Despite humanity's corrupted nature and total depravity, we'll uncover the hope for future reconciliation in the new Jerusalem, where heaven and earth will be one again, restoring the lost divine connection. Join us for a thought-provoking discussion that blends scripture with deep theological insights to offer a fresh perspective on these age-old questions.
End Time Message Handbook, section 27. What was Adam's sin? In previous contenders and on our website, we brought out the teaching of serpent seed, showing that the original sin was sex, not literally eating apples. You can read more on our website at jasondemarscom. In this section we want to deal more with the sin of Adam. He ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, but how did he do so? Let's start at the beginning of the story and give a whole and as clear a picture as possible. God commanded them not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Adam and Eve were already immortal. It was not necessary for them personally to eat of the tree of life. However, this was a principle that God ordained to govern life. The word eating is used to describe the sex act in Proverbs 30, 20. Such is the way of an adulterous woman she eateth and wipeth her mouth and saith I have done no wickedness. Adam and Eve were commanded to multiply and replenish the earth. This command was their great purpose, along with raising these children to fear God.
Speaker 1:God placed two laws in the midst of the garden. There is the literal garden of Eden and then there is the figurative garden of Eden. Song of Solomon 5.1. I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse. I have gathered my myrrh with my spice, I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey, I have drunk my wine with my milk. Eat, o friends, drink yea, drink abundantly, o beloved. The garden is the human body. So we have two trees in the midst of the garden. These two trees speak of two laws governing the reproduction of life on earth. One way produces death and the other way brings life. Now this leads to the question which way creates life and which way produces death?
Speaker 1:Let's read what Brother Branham says in the spoken word as the original seed, she brought death through a bastard-born child which we all are children of. But God came in the flesh to give us another birth, to bring us back to the original sons and daughters of God. See, there you are the life sperm of Eve. Never happened, it never did. Why she mingled, it kept. You are the life sperm of Eve. Never happened, it never did. Why she mingled, it kept it away.
Speaker 1:Instead of Adam coming to her for a bride when the time appointed would be, just like Christ would have come to the group, christ would have to come to his church. He promised to do it. God promised to multiply them, but they had to wait until God's time. That's what's the matter today. They don't want to wait God's time, they want to get something else, and so the devil has got the wisdom right there to give it to them. Make an organization be bigger than the rest of them. End quote. There was a time appointed for Adam and Eve to come together, and they were not to come together until that time. God commanded them to multiply and replenish the earth, but they had to wait until his time. This point is critical, brother Branham says and before they came together, adam and Eve, she was pregnant with the corrupt seed from the serpent. And when Adam come to his wife, he found her pregnant to death. See death, how Spiritually and physically dead. End quote. Before Adam and Eve could come together sexually, eve was beguiled and impregnated by the serpent.
Speaker 1:This next quote is important in understanding what Adam's sin was. We will continue explaining this in more detail. Notice the reason that animals couldn't do it. A female animal. They were in the original creation, but the woman was not in that original creation. Now we're going back to dig this up then bring you right down to the modern day.
Speaker 1:In the Testament, she is designed alone for filth and unclean living. A dog can't and no other female can. It's just the woman that can A dog or any other animal once a year, and that for her babies. Not for sexual pleasure, but for her babies. The old sow hog, the old slut dog, once a year, one moment, that's for her babies. But a woman is designed for any time she desires. I've got some stuff crossed off here. Now you can imagine the rest. A dog can't, a woman can. I hope that the Holy Spirit reveals to you the rest that I crossed out here. End quote.
Speaker 1:This quote seems like an extraordinary and negative quote, but it is key to understanding the original sin and in fact it is not negative at all. Brother Branham is not condemning sexual pleasure between a husband and wife Song of Solomon is full of this and does not condemn it at all. It is condemning the woman that is misusing and misplacing sexual pleasure outside of the will of God. Brother Branham also states that Satan designed Eve. Now. This cannot be. Branham also states that Satan designed Eve. Now. This cannot be understood in the sense that Satan created Eve. She was created by God as a byproduct or a secondary result of the creation of Adam. Adam and Eve are one. Eve came out of Adam, but we see in Genesis 3 that Satan, through the serpent, began to design or mold and shape Eve for his purposes. Design means to plan with a specific purpose or intention in mind. Satan started to work on Eve with a specific purpose or intention in mind to inject a hybrid into the human race using the animal most closely related to them. The serpent Serpent was not a snake, as I have shown in a previous article on our website. He walked upright, spoke and reasoned just as a man.
Speaker 1:Back to our discussion on a woman versus the animal kingdom. In the animal kingdom, the females ovulate once a year, as Brother Branham stated. Their ovulation time varies depending on the species, but in general it is once a year. Scientists are demonstrating now that animals do in fact experience pleasure during mating, but they are doing it according to the time of life, when the female is in estrus, like the elk and the deer in the rut season. But it is the woman that can choose to have sexual relations anytime for pleasure and is in estrus every 28 days instead of once a year. In an article from the BBC website. It states humans can copulate any time during the reproductive cycle, unlike many other mammals that copulate right around ovulation.
Speaker 1:Let's start to tie this all together so we can come to an understanding. Notice this verse Genesis 3.16. Unto the woman, he said I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception. In sorrow thou shalt bring forth children, and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. God said that he would greatly multiply the woman's sorrow, that is, pain and conception. He multiplied her pain and her conception. She would now have increased pain and childbearing and she would have increased conceptions. Before the fall, god ordained that a woman brings forth children, but that they had to wait until God's time. As Brother Branham said, now, after the fall, her conceptions are multiplied, or rather that her ability to conceive is multiplied to every 28 days.
Speaker 1:Adam came to his wife, eve, who was impregnated by the serpent, knowing his wife would be judged and destroyed, and took her to himself and redeemed her by becoming one with her sexually. They did not wait until God's appointed time, and not only that, but Adam was taking to himself a woman that became one with another man. In the curse of Adam we find a clue to the deeper understanding of Adam's sin Genesis 3.17,. And unto Adam he said Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife and hast eaten of the tree which I commanded thee, saying Thou shalt not eat of it. So God cursed the ground because of Adam's sin. Instead of following the command of God to bring forth life in God's time, he listened to his wife openly, knowing it was sin. 1 Timothy 2.14,. Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. So here, the sin of having sex with his wife out of God's appointed time and apart from God's chosen way, results in the curse on the earth.
Speaker 1:Notice what Brother Branham wrote in the Church Ages book. Now I know in answering one question, another one is apt to come up, and people ask me if Eve felt that way, what did Adam do? For God lays the blame on Adam. That is simple. The word of God is forever settled in heaven. Before one speck of stardust was made, that word God's law was there, exactly as it is written in our Bible. Now the word teaches us that if a woman leaves her husband and goes with another man, she's an adulteress and is no longer married, and the husband is not to take her back. That word was true in Eden as it was true when Moses wrote it in the law. The word can't change. Adam took her back. He knew exactly what he was doing, but he did it anyway. She was a part of him and he was willing to take her responsibility upon himself. He would not let her go. So Eve conceived by him. He knew she would. He knew exactly what would happen to the human race and he sold the human race into sin that he might have Eve for. He loved her End quote.
Speaker 1:The result then was the loss of immortality for both Adam and Eve. The moment they sinned, immortality was lost and they realized now that they were naked and they felt guilty. Therefore, they sought to cover nakedness with aprons or a loincloth. This covering must have provided some relief to their sense of shame. But then the Lord God started to walk in the garden and they went and hid again and they told God that they hid from him because they were naked. Even with loincloths on, they felt naked before God. God took animals as a sin offering and killed it and provided a long coat for them both to wear to cover their nakedness.
Speaker 1:Then God states that man has now become like himself and the angels, knowing both good and evil, and in this condition he should not be allowed to partake of the tree of life and live forever.
Speaker 1:Therefore, god placed an angel at the garden of Eden to prevent them from taking part of the tree of life. In fact, there's no place on earth where a man could not access due to an angel standing there to guard from eating of the tree of life. The garden was a paradise and was heaven on earth. In the new Jerusalem, heaven and earth will be one again. The garden of Eden was the place on earth where heaven and earth were one. God shut man out of his presence, he removed our access to that other dimension and he took away the principle of coming together in God's appointed time and producing an immortal spoken word, son or daughter of God. Now all children are born from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. All possess both natures corrupted nature and also a nature that cries after God, but that corrupted nature overrides any sense of seeking after God and causes us to live and walk in total depravity.
