Many times in the New Testament we read of demons possessing and controlling individuals. However, the Scripture records only one man during one particular season when Satan himself possesses. Who is this man and what is the reason for this?
After Adam sinned God brought judgment, beginning with the serpent, then Satan, then the woman and finally Adam. It is important to remember that it was Adam’s sin ALONE that brought the sentence of death. However, they all were punished because they willingly contributed to the downfall of the man in disobedience to God. (See 1 Corinthians 15:21-22; Romans 5:14-18)
Genesis 1 and 2 gives us a wonderful picture of creation with the Man and the Woman enjoying each other; and most of all, they are in fellowship with God. In chapter 3 we are introduced to their first temptation to disobey God’s commandment concerning the forbidden tree.
In Genesis 1:1 God created the universe (heavens and the earth). The grammatical construction of the Hebrew texts as well as the context of Scripture teaches us that this was a perfect and orderly creation. However, without explanation that universe is found in total disarray in the very next verse. Join me as we explore what has happened to completely “undue” God’s perfect world.
