Bible passage: Genesis 3:1Andiko la Biblia: Mwanzo 3:1
"[1] Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, "Indeed, has God said, 'You shall not eat from any tree of the garden'?"“[1] Basi nyoka alikuwa mwerevu kuliko wanyama wote wa mwitu aliowafanya Bwana Mungu. Akamwambia mwanamke, ‘Ati! hivi ndivyo alivyosema Mungu, Msile matunda ya miti yote ya bustani?’”
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ.Ndugu wapendwa katika Kristo.
This is 68th Lecture on Genesis. Now, we begin Genesis Chapter 3. Chapter 3 describes the details of the sin that Adam and Eve committed and its result. Verses 1-6 describes how Adam and Eve were deceived and ate from the tree of the knowledge of Good and evil, verses 7-13 describes God's verification, verses 14-21 describes the judgment and love of God, and verses 22-24 describes how Adam and Eve were driven out to the earth.Hili ni somo la 68 katika mafundisho ya Mwanzo. Sasa tunaanza Mwanzo sura ya 3. Sura hii inaeleza kwa kina dhambi ambayo Adamu na Hawa walitenda na matokeo yake. Mistari ya 1–6 inaeleza jinsi walivyodanganywa na kula matunda ya mti wa ujuzi wa mema na mabaya; mistari ya 7–13 inaeleza Mungu alivyowahoji; mistari ya 14–21 inaeleza hukumu na upendo wa Mungu; na mistari ya 22–24 inaeleza jinsi Adamu na Hawa walivyofukuzwa na kupelekwa duniani.
Adam and Eve lived in the Garden of Eden which was surrounded by the light, but then how could they deceived by Satan? I'll tell you the very details of the account; how craftily Satan deceived Adam until he finally ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. In a spiritual sense, it is very advantageous to understand how Satan approaches and what kind of words Satan uses to deceive people.Adamu na Hawa waliishi katika Bustani ya Edeni iliyozungukwa na nuru. Basi Shetani aliwezaje kuwadanganya? Nitawaeleza kwa undani jinsi Shetani alivyomdanganya Adamu kwa ujanja mpaka akala tunda la mti wa ujuzi wa mema na mabaya. Kwa mtazamo wa kiroho, ni faida kubwa kuelewa jinsi Shetani anavyowakaribia watu na maneno anayotumia kuwadanganya.
Satan has led people into sin with the same methods throughout the ages. Genesis 3:1-6 describes the classic method of Satan to deceive people. I urge you to understand these verses well and remember them. If you know your enemy and yourself, you can win every battle. It means that you will win every battle you fight if you correctly understand the enemy's state and circumstances as well as your own.Katika vizazi vyote, Shetani amewaongoza watu katika dhambi kwa kutumia mbinu zilezile. Mwanzo 3:1–6 inaeleza mbinu ya kawaida ya Shetani ya kuwadanganya watu. Nawasihi myafahamu vizuri na kuyakumbuka. Ukimjua adui yako na kujijua mwenyewe, unaweza kushinda kila vita. Utashinda kila pambano ukielewa vizuri hali na mazingira ya adui pamoja na hali yako mwenyewe.
I hope that you will see through Satan's deceit when Satan tries to deceive you, and that you can quickly reject it. You don't have time to repeat the process of falling into Satan's temptation and escaping from it. I urge you to "stand firm therefore, HAVING GIRDED YOUR LOINS WITH TRUTH." I pray in the name of the Lord that you may strongly march on only toward the spirit. Dear brothers and sisters.Natumaini mtatambua udanganyifu wa Shetani anapojaribu kuwadanganya na kuukataa mara moja. Hamna muda wa kuendelea kuanguka katika jaribu la Shetani na kisha kutoroka tena na tena. Nawasihi: “Simameni imara hali mmejifunga kweli viunoni mwenu.” Ninaomba katika jina la Bwana kwamba muendelee kwa nguvu kuelekea roho pekee. Ndugu wapendwa.
