What is a man for?

Why does God create Adam?
Desire reveals design – our design reveal
God command to Adam – rule, subdue, be fruitful and multiply
Explore, build, and conquer – take risk and danger (the catch)
Something hinders us from living to the level of risk God invites us to
God has a enemy and so do we
There are many, many battles to fight on many different battlefields

Before Eve is drawn from Adam’s side and leaved that ache that never goes away until he is with her.
God does not tell Adam what he has done.
No warning or instructions – temptation of eve

God believes in Adam – he does not need a play-by-play book – this is what Adam is for

Hebrew word “with her” – means elbow to elbow
Adam was watching the whole thing unravel
What does he do? Nothing
He won’t risk, he won’t fight, he won’t rescue Eve
