LESSON 16

• Adam named the animals

(Genesis 2:20).
• Adam named Eve (Genesis 2:23).
• God approached Adam first after
the fall (Genesis 2:9).
 But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise
authority over a man, but to remain quiet
People all around us are confused about who they are.
Often in our attempt to honor God, we fail to realize
the unique role God has given us in his kingdom. In this
confusion, we facilitate between self-degradation and
self-importance. Scripture, however, provides a
balanced portrait of human beings. We are images of
clay, but designed to represent the authority of the
King of the universe. In this balanced perspective, we
live humility and dignity as images of God.
