The David Spoon Experience 3-11-24 part 2

1) Returning to Genesis 3:8, we immediately discover that Adam and Eve could hear the Lord walking in the garden towards the evening, prompting them to hide. This moment is fascinating, not for the sinfulness, but for the engagement from God. They could hear God walking in the garden. What was that experience like? I am deeply interested in understanding that.

2) Next, God appears towards the evening. While many have speculated about the reasons, nothing prior to this moment provides definitive authority to their interpretations. It could simply be because the evening marks the end of the day. One thing is clear: God's intent was to spend time with His creation, seemingly on a daily basis.

3) Finally, God calls out to Adam, asking, "Where are you?" It wasn't that God didn't know Adam's location. Rather, God was pointing out to Adam that he was not where he was supposed to be at the expected time. God was calling him out. There was no chance for Adam to hide indefinitely. God confronted His creation. That was true for Adam. It’s also true for everyone else, including you and me.
