The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E. Fleming

The Fall is not a biblical word! They were attacked! Each ate. Each died. But each acted from different motivations.The woman was deceived. She ate for good reasons.He ate rebelliously joining the serpent in rejecting God's words.Getting this clearly in mind prepares us for reading what happened next when God spoke to the serpent and to the man using the same six point pattern.Go deeper?

Is it enough to study the word meanings in a Bible passage? Not in a passage like Genesis 2-3! Both the word patterns and the word definitions convey meaning. Perhaps missing these patterns is why there are so many contradictory interpretations of Genesis 2-3. Here we look at Eden Insight #1 and introduce the complex chiasm of Genesis 2-3. Go deeper?

Paul tells Spirit-filled believers to teach and correct one another in Ephesians 5:19b and 20. Then, in verse 21, he tells them to submit to the teaching and correction they are receiving from one another. In verse 24a he refers to the church as it submits to the teaching and correction it receives from Christ. And in 24b he refers to the mutual ministry and mutual submission of the Christian couple.Go deeper? the book Beyond Eden, Ephesians 5:15-6:9 gives an overview of the entire passage. Discover how Paul uses a Jump, Jump, High Jump pattern as he writes out verses 15-18, 19-21 and 22-6:9. The high point of the passage is 5:32 the great mystery revealed: his joint-body metaphor on the unity of Christ and believers all in one spiritual body! Here's a link: https://a.co/d/j1ALahC  The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C.

"Headship" isn't taught in the Bible and all the arguments in favor of it turn out to be weak arguments. So let's focus on what the Bible IS teaching us. At first, Zach returns to "headship" theories but Bruce redirects the discussion to the word patterns in Ephesians 5-6. Bruce takes Zach to Ephesians 6:1-4. There they discuss not only the parallels with the Ten Commandments (Honor your father and mother) but also Leviticus 19:3 (Each of you shall fear his mother and father).There is much more in Ephesians 5:15-6:9 to look at. We recommend our book Beyond Eden, Ephesians 5:15-6:9, the Great Mystery revealed: Mutually Submitting in Christ. It is available as an audiobook on Audible and as an eBook and paperback from Amazon. Link to our interview with Andrew Bartlett: https://youtu.be/TJ95GAvnN-M?si=qyV64WgBXccHYoTE   The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C.
