Bible pictures of Christ, Pt 7Bible pictures of Christ · part 7 of 126Rev. Ivan Foster · ChildrenGenesis 3:21 · Tue Oct 13, 2015
As a new school year has begun, Rev Foster has been asked to speak at two morning assembly meetings. His theme for 2015-16 is DV, "Pictures of Christ in the Bible." The second Picture of Christ - Adam and Eve clothed by God "Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them," Genesis 3:21. Have looked at the fact that Adam and Eve did their best to make garments for themselves and that clothes are meant for a covering, we are meant to be covered and not as this world acts today, indecently and immodestly dressed. We come to If they were to be clothed the Lord must do it. "Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them." Jonah said: "Salvation is of the LORD," Jonah 2:9. "Salvation belongeth unto the LORD," Psalm 3:8. "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved," Acts 4:12. Like Adam and Eve, men and women still try to provide themselves with garments that will fit them for heaven and God's presence. Only the Lord can dress us for heaven, Isaiah 61:10. Please notice that the garments provided cost a life. "Coats of skins." A sacrifice was made. This is the first sacrifice mentioned in the Bible. It speaks to us of Christ the sacrifice at the cross dying to cover our sins, to deliver us from damnation and dress us for heaven. "Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered," Psalm 32:1. "Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin. Selah," Psalm 85:2. Are you covered in the garments that the Lord has provided?
