Just like real life.
You're surrounded by a bunch of animals until God does you a solid and finds a suitable
person to pair you up with.
You all know how it is.
It's 2017.
People are crazy and I just thank Jesus every day that I got married before Tinder was like,
as big as it is.
So, people are crazy out there.
(Music plays)
Hey everyone! This is going to be part 2 of my video series on the beginning of Genesis.
And like in our last video, where we talked about what happened from when God created
the Earth up until God created Adam, we are going to be getting into 1.
Who Adam is.
2.
What his job was and 3.
him getting wifed up and how what God had in place as far as a timeline, is sort of
how you should follow if you want to, you know, become an adult and do your own thing.
If you don't want to be (laughs) if you don't want to be treated like a child, act like
an adult.
So we're just going to dive right into that.
And, let's get to it!
You're going to have to go into Genesis 2, and that is when God forms Adam, man from
the dust of the earth.
And He breathed into him, so we have the Holy Spirit, in him.
And that's what made him come alive.
So, that's basically the story of how Adam came to be.
Now then what happens?
So God, has Adam.
He is alive.
There's trees, there's animals.
And the first thing God does (Genesis 2:16 on screen) is, is He gives him the ground
rules.
You can eat from this, but don't eat from that.
So, He gives him the ground rules.
Then He gives Adam a job (Genesis 2:19 on screen.)
You're in charge of naming all of the animals.
And then, number 3, He's like, "you know what?
He needs a helper.
He needs a bud."
(Genesis 2:18 on screen.)
Not just any "bud" - he needs, a wife.
He needs to wife Adam up.
But, there's nothing suitable for Adam to uh, wife up with (laughs) (Genesis 2:20 on
screen.)
So God puts Adam into a deep sleep (Genesis 2:21 on screen.)
And He takes out one of Adam's ribs, does His thing (Genesis 2:22 on screen) and makes
Eve.
So she is Adam's wife.
Now I want to just kind of (move) to the side a little bit and you can get to know me a
bit.
And this totally mimics how the Bible is.
Now God has a hierarchy of things.
Man, then animals, then the plants of the Earth.
But man's on top.
Like, he's over all of this stuff.
(Genesis 1:26 on screen) because God gave him that authority.
He gave him dominion.
He's in charge, he's the boss over everything.
So you'll see this repeated over and over and over in the Bible.
God has a hierarchy.
It's not just like, Zappos over here where "nobody has any titles or anything.
We're all just like members of one group."Nope, that's not how we do it here.
God has a hierarchy.
God first then humans, then animals, then plants and man's in charge.
Now I definitely want to kind of get into some Biblical truth, I guess I would say,
in future videos.
Because, from, from Adam and Eve, you can really see like, there's a progression.
First you get the ground rules, so like, when you're a kid, your parents kind of tell you
what to do.
And they kind of guide you.
Then, you get a job.
And then, once you have your job, then you're ready for a wife.
It's not, you know, you're a scrub, you're not doing anything and you think you're going
to get wifed up.
You're not ready for it!
And, all throughout the Bible, it talks about like, how relationships should be.
I can say from personal experience that I have been in relationships or I've gone out
on dates when I had no business going out on dates.
Like I was in school or I lived at home with my parents or I didn't have a job, whatever.
Until you are off on your own, with a job, you're not ready to get wifed up.
Right from the jump in the Bible, you learn what to do, then you put it into practice
at work, then you're ready to take on another person.
Now I know from personal experience, that if you decide that you're going to do it out
of order, you're going to be up a creek.
And I don't say that from my own experience, you know what - actually I do.
It is from my own relationship.
Because I think all of you all need to know that I am married right now.
And this is my 2nd go around.
Because I married a violent, crazy person.
And, I''m not just one of those people saying like, "oh yes, like, he was terrible because
we didn't agree on you know, music, or something."
No this fool literally told me, "I'm going to kill you and hide your body in the trash.
And nobody's going to find you."
Violent and scary.
I booked it out of there.
Like, God, I messed up.
Like, you can totally understand, I'm not ready to die.
This fool like, threw me out of my house by my hair.
I was over it.
See ya!
Whatever.
But, did this dude have a job?
No.
He was a trust fund baby.
So.
Their priorities are all out of whack.
Don't make my mistakes.
So, just like Adam, learn your stuff, get a job, then you're ready for God to wife you
up.
I want you to subscribe below, and tell me in the comments about a time where you thought
you were grown.
You thought you were ready and not the best way to go about doing things.
I will see you later.
Bye!
