The outline from Charles E. Whisnant, Rivers of Joy Baptist Church on November 18, 2009
![THE SERPENT IN PARADISE HAS HIS DAY IN COURT Genesis 3:14-15. November 18, 2009. Rivers of Joy Baptist Church, Minford Ohio. Charles E. Whisnant, Pastor and Teacher and Student of the Word. I know you say, “Why should we even study about the devil. After all, there is enough trouble in life. Let’s just leave him alone.” I know, but Satan can be found from Genesis to Revelation. God has held court for Adam and Eve and now we come to the serpent. Notice God does not ask the serpent any question. Why? God does not offer the devil any opportunity to repent. 1AIrwin Lutzer’s book: The Serpent of Paradise: 1BThe contractor that experienced the law of unintended consequences. 1CThe outcomes that are not (or not limited to) the results originally intended by a particular action. The unintended results may be foreseen or unforeseen, but they should be the logical or likely result of the action. 2AThose who felt the law of unintended consequences 1BLucifer had no thought of what would be set in motion over his rebellion in heaven. 2BAdam and Eve didn’t either have any idea of what the effect would be when they yielded to the temptation. 3A The condensed course in Satanology. Genesis 3:14-15 ,[object Object],4A Outline of chapter three ,[object Object], 3:8-13 The Depravity of Man. Total depravity entails total inability, that is, the state of not having it in oneself to respond to God and his Word in a sincere and wholehearted way (John 6:44; Rom. 8:7-8). Paul calls this unresponsiveness of the fallen heart a state of death (Eph. 2:1, 5; Col. 2:13), and the Westminster Confession says:
Man by his fall into a state of sin, hath wholly lost all ability of will to any spiritual good accompanying salvation; so as a natural man, being altogether averse from that good, and dead in sin, is not able by his own strength to convert himself, or to prepare himself thereunto
(IX. 3). ,[object Object],5A PARADISE WAS LOST WHEN MAN SINNED. 1BThere are natural consequences to sin in life. There are processes we set in motion by our sin. It’s the Galatians 6 law, the law of sowing and reaping. You plant a certain behavior, you will reap a certain kind of process that comes out of that behavior. 2BBut this law is not what we are dealing with in Genesis 3. 6A Genesis 3:14-15 is far greater. It is the reality of divine judgment. This is a sentence by the Divine Judge. 7A SIN: ,[object Object]](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/creationoultine111809serpent-091120070509-phpapp01/85/Creation-Oultine-11-18-09-Serpent-1-320.jpg)
