Sunday School Lesson (Continued from Page 3) | We should note also that they did not originate within man, the creature made in the divine image. The Scripture states that one of he lower creatures, the serpent, introduced temptation. The Results of Sin When the serpent tempted the first man and woman to disobey God, he promised more than the forbidden fruit could accom plish. "You will not die. For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, know ing good and evil." (Genesis 3: 4b-5) But when they ate of the tree, they did not become like God. Bather, they became ashamed of their nakedness. They became aware of their sexual nature and put on loincloths to cover them selves. They hid themselves from God lest he see their loin coverings and know that they had become ashamed of sex uality. Their disobedience thus became an experience of shame, an awareness of guilt and sin, and a sense of alienation from the natural world, which does not evidence shame about sex, and from God. The man and the woman did not become like God, for God , does not experience good and evil. He is beyond and above such knowing. Becoming more unlike God, the man and the woman were therefore separat ed from him and expelled from the garden to a life of hard la bor and to ultimate death. Living outside the garden of God means that weeds and thorns grow. It means that the distinction between wild beasts and tamed ones is enmity. The ardent desire for conception is marred by the pain that accom panies birth. God becomes re mote and hidden from man's eyes; and since the tree of life in God's garden is no longer accessible, death is inevitable. Immortality cannot be known by man apart from, and cer tainly not in spite of, God. In a short space, the bibli cal writer thus testifies that be cause man, who originally stood beyond and above categories of good and evil, defied his Maker, all creation has gone astray. Man separated from God knows existence only as temporary, full of confusion and uncertain ty, freighted with good and evil. Man's shame of his naked- j ness and sexuality and his fear of God are bound together with the eating of the divinely for bidden fruit. Therefore it is little wonder that man later came to regard sexual activity either as immoral and ungodly and thus to be shunned or as sacred and thus to be made the focus of a religion of sex and fertility.
