Gospel Found In Eden
- Genesis 2–3 presents the need for salvation and points forward to Jesus as the promised crusher of the serpent's head.
- Bruce C. E. Fleming argues Eve's confession and God's promise reveal the Gospel already at work in Eden.
Different Responses By Adam And Eve
- Fleming contrasts the man and woman's responses: the man rebelled and hid while the woman was deceived, confessed, and aligned against the tempter.
- This contrast supports distinct treatments by God and informs later theological readings.
Use Resources To Study Eden
- Use resources like the God Tools app and the Eden book series to deepen understanding of Genesis 2–3 and the Gospel there.
