Science & God's Word Series
Adam and Eve became conscious of their physical body nakedness because what God told them not to eat polluted their blood after they ate it.
The pollution of human blood began the weakening of their human spirits towards death. Scientifically, we know that when something is eaten, the process of digestion begins from the mouth as it passes through the gut. The alimentary canal also known as the gut consists of the mouth, oesophagus, stomach, small intestine and large intestine. In the small intestine, some substances in what has been eaten are absorbed into the bloodstream (network of tissues, veins, arteries through which the blood flows in the human body). Whatever is not absorbed by the blood passes on to the large intestine through the colorectal pathway and out via the anus.
What is absorbed into the bloodstream in the small intestine first goes to the liver that separates nutrients from substances that are unusable. The unusable substances ideally should go out of the body through the kidneys as urine and some may also go out through the skin as sweat. But if any of those substances cannot go out through those two channels because they were never meant to enter the bloodstream at all, they stay in that person’s body attempting to go out or settle where they can.
Some of those substances which are of course toxic because according to divine order they have no business being inside that body can stay in the blood or move to different parts of the body causing trouble. They can even enter the body cells as nutrients do. Whereas true nutrients undergoing metabolic processes energise the body, ensure the body functions well and continually regenerate, thereby bringing growth and renewal of body cells to ensure perpetuity of life, those toxic substances damage as much body cells and parts as they can. When the toxic substances enter the nucleus of the cells, they can damage DNA, cause oxidative stress which leads to accelerated aging and/or diseases. The alteration in genetic code as a result of DNA damage can be inherited by the person’s offspring. Isn't that tampering with the excellent Masterpiece God the Creator had carefully, creatively put in place as humans knowingly or inadvertently put into their bodies, particularly the blood, what is not right?
According to National Institute of Health (USA), "a genotoxin is any chemical agent, biological substance, or physical factor that damages the genetic material (DNA or chromosomes) within a cell. If the cell fails to repair the damage, it results in permanent genetic alterations. Damage to somatic cells can lead to cancer (malignant transformation), while damage to germ cells (male sperm or female egg) can cause heritable birth defects and genetic disorders in future generations."
According to PubMed published in National Library of Medicine (NLM) “Such damage in a germ cell has the potential to cause a heritable altered trait (germline mutation). DNA damage in a somatic cell may result in a somatic mutation, which may lead to malignant transformation (cancer).”
Toxic substances getting into human blood and thereby body cells cause not only cancer but myriad of other diseases. What can diseases do? They can lead to death!
Hence reason God said this: Gen.2.16 “And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, You may freely eat of every tree of the garden;
Gen.2.17 - But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and blessing and calamity you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”
Whatever that fruit is, don't know but it certainly must have had toxic substances that initiated the physical death, which is progressive. It started with the pollution of the blood which affected the human spirits originally designed to be fully connected to God. Before the blood was polluted by the first humans in this current dispensation on earth, each human spirit was in full glory providing a covering for the physical body i.e. their human bodies were in glorified state – a physical body that would not have died, that was covered by glory clothing.
God is a Spirit John 4:4 and Adam and Eve who had physical bodies were also spirits. Before the disobedience which polluted tge blood leading to the fall of humanity, they could see God because their spiritual vision could override their physical sight. After the disobedience i.e. pollution of their blood, death process was activated. Their human spirits were weakened, they lost their spiritual sight, they could no longer see the spiritual glory which covered their bodies and could only see physically. Hence they realised there was no covering on their physical bodies. They were still able to hear God but could no longer see Him as God can only be seen spiritually because God is spirit.
Gen.3.8 - And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
Gen.3.9 - But the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, Where are you?
Gen.3.10 - He said, I heard the sound of You [walking] in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.
Gen.3.11 - And He said, Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?"
So the plan of redemption entailed that the Spirit of God (which cannot be seen with physical eyes) had to enter a human body. If not for God’s plan of redemption, apart from Satan's attempts at getting as many humans as possible to be destructive of the earth and all of God's creations, diseases would have progressively and eventually wiped out all humans.
The name Jesus was a name God decided to take like any other name of humans. The name became powerful because it was the name God used when His Spirit entered the earth physically by being born of a woman whose ovum His Spirit fertilised. So Jesus born of the Spirit of God is God in human flesh, therefore He is the Son of God and Son of Man.
Why did He come? See:
Matt.8.17 This fulfilled the word of the Lord through Isaiah, who said, "He (Jesus) took our sicknesses and removed our diseases." (NLT).
Questions on the minds on many have been,
1.“Why then do some Christians who have actually accepted Jesus as Lord and Saviour still suffer diseases and some still die as a result?
2.Why then do some, hopefully not many Christians, still struggle with sexual immorality and other mental issues?
3.Why is lack of self-control and lustfullness even without seeing nakedness still so rampant?
4.Why is there still the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life that led to the fall of humanity?
5.What is the essence of the blood of Jesus in relation to the pollution of human blood?
6.How does the blood of Jesus actually deliver true believers from the generational pollutions in their blood?
