1:29) was for them parabolically and is for Man that of coming under the Law
(Gen 1:29) and precedes and always results in then immediately coming under the
Law-in-spirit-and flesh (Gen 2:17, 3:7) - symbolised by Adam and Eve's awareness
of nakedness (flesh). From thence an immediate process commences of coming
under the law-in-spirit-and-flesh-in-detail. Every foetus follows this path (Psalm
58:3, Rom 3:10). The point of Adam's parabolical story is to illustrate the nature of
Man (Psalm 78:2-3)

The Law-in-spirit forbade and forbids the initial sin of being under the Law-in-
spirit, which is to eat of the forbidden fruit (Rom 3:20, 5:13). Once under the Law-
in-spirit a flesh being comes under the Law-in-spirit and flesh and indeed then
under the Law-in-spirit-and-flesh-in-detail (Jam 2:10). Adam, that is Man in
general (Gen 5:2, Rom 5:12, 1 Cor 15:45-47, Gal 3:10, Jam 2:10), not just the
Jews, came under the Law-in-spirit-and-flesh-in-detail (with all its details revealed
progressively - Deut 29:13-15, Rom 8:28, Gal 3:19, 3:24) after eating of the 'fruit'
(Rom 3:19-20, 5:12-13) i.e. seeking to be God (Gen 3:5, 22). The Law-in-spirit-
and-flesh is the forbidden fruit (Rom 3:20, 7:7-25, Gal 3:10). Discernment between
good and evil is a worthy aim (2 Sam 14:17, 1 Kings 3:9-11) but only if it comes
from obedience to God and from God directly, sought from God, and is not sought
by Man’s own arrogance and in his own strength (Rom 3:20, Phil 3:9). In other
words it is sought by fulfilment via eating of the Tree of Life, which is belief in
Christ (Rev 22:2). The Law was the necessary means by which recalcitrant sinners
can be brought to Salvation and the curse is justified by the Prime Principle of
Love that whatever is necessary as the secondary will curse of God, be so enacted
that Man might be saved (Rom 8:28, Gal 3:24).

Those angels who fell, which fell to become devil spirits (Rom 8:38, 2 Pet 2:4, Rev
12:7-9), prior to their fall, were in the same state to that of Adam and Eve before
they came under the Law-in-spirit-and-flesh (Col 1:20). The fallen angels sinned
against the Law-in-spirit i.e. not Law-in-spirit-and-flesh which leads onto the Law-
in-spirit-and-flesh-in-detail i.e. the flesh-orientated dietary constraints etc., (2 Pet
2:4, Rev 12:7-9). Angels are sinners unless and until saved (Col 1:20, Rev 2:4, 14,
16, 20, 3:2, 15, 17, 19). The evolved humans were in a state of sin, as unsaved (Col
1:20) but also as they had emerged out of a sinning and diseased Creation (Job
15:15, Rom 8:22) i.e. they were in part flesh and therefore (unless saved) subject to
the Law-in-spirit from initial inception in the womb (Psalm 51:5) and also under
the Law-in-spirit-and-flesh (Gen 3:7, parabolically the awareness of the
flesh/nakedness, Psalm 51:5) and in turn then the Law-in-spirit-and-flesh-in-detail
which is the attempt to purify the flesh by the flesh (Gen 3:7, Rom 2:15-16, 3:20,
