Once both the man and the woman ate the fruit of the tree of knowledge, what did they realize about themselves?

After having eaten the fruit, when the man and woman “heard the voice of the Lord God,” what did they do and why? (Gen 3:8–10; Moses 4:14–16) They hid them selves from the presence of the lord God because they were afraid and naked 9.

(Gen 3:21; Moses 4:27) Coats of skins 12. Why did the Lord God drive Adam and Eve out of the garden of Eden? (Gen 3:22–23; Moses 4:28–29) He knows good and evil now and must eat and live forever and go back from where he was taken 13. How did the Lord God prevent Adam and Eve from reentering the garden of Eden? (Gen 3:24; Moses 4:31) Cherubium and a flaming sword to keep the way of tree of life
14. Early in Lehi’s message to Jacob, Lehi states, “I know that thou art redeemed.” On account of whose righteousness is Jacob redeemed? (2 Ne 2:3) Because of the righteousness of thy redeemer, Christ 15. What does the word intercession mean? (If you are not sure, you can just look it up in a dictionary, such as Webster's 1828 dictionary .) Interposition between two parties of different views, a median , intervening 16. Lehi taught Jacob that, to “bring about his eternal purposes” for humankind, after God created our first parents and all other lifeforms, what did God have to allow to be (“it must needs be that...”)? What did the Lord God give humans to enable all this? (2 Ne 2:15–16) There was an opposition … sweet and bitter That man could act for himself 17. According to Lehi, why were “the days of the children of men” prolonged? (2:21) According to the will of god that they might repent while in the flesh and their state became a state of probation... according to the commandments from the lord God, all must repent because of transgression of parents 18. How do people choose “liberty and eternal life”? (2:27–28) Through the great mediator of all men Men are free according to flesh and all thing given to them 19. How do people choose “captivity and death”? (2:27–29) According to the captivity and power of the devil 20. How did Christianity tend to understand Adam and Eve’s motivation and the impact of their decision? What does the Book of Mormon teach instead? (pp.62–63) The covenant made with eve and adam was broken, so christ came thousands of years later to rectify the disaster If adam wouldn’t have transgressed he would have not fallen and everything would have remained in the same state they were created Brought earths children to a progressive plan where they know good and evil joy and sorrow and may become god and have eternal life 21. According to Dr. Givens, what is “the only conspicuous” doctrinal teaching of the Book of Mormon “that is emphatically at odds with the Bible as interpreted by millions of readers for millennia”? What group within the LDS Church “first recognized this reading” and difference? (pp.63–64) The understanding that eves and adams transgression was a foreordained sacrifice in obedience to a higher law Women of the church who first recognized 22. According to Dr. Givens, why are such contrasting options so important? (pp.65–66) Growth, flourishing, and human joy all require the vibrancy of a free soul choosing among various options Opposition means contrasts and that all are the very basis of all value Our very status as beings with meaningful existence depends entirely upon scheme of opposition
23. How do Lehi’s teachings make sense of the Lord God declaring that Adam and Eve had become like him/them? (p.67) Only by knowing, experiencing, being immersed in and confronting good and evil can we exists as independent agents, acting for ourselves and not being acted upon 24. In the Church’s video “Like a Broken Vessel,” Elder Jeffrey R. Holland and other Latter-day Saints share their experiences with mental illness. What is an insight this video gave you or reminded you of? How can you use that insight to better help yourself or other people? This video reminds me that I am not alone , and I can find help, God will help me. I can find happiness again. That you aren't the only one suffering and god wants to help us. Priesthood blessing. Its not targeted, it just is and happens How is the Christianity understanding of Adams and Eves transgression incorporated into our beliefs of Adams and Eves transgression? Do we in ways also believe it is in part why christ returns thousands of years later? How can I work on changing my view on life when things are hard or I am suffering? How can I use this to grow closer to Christ instead of further?
