The Significance of Christ Excerpts from the writings of T. Austin Sparks

So He drove out the man. Gen 3:22-24

THE INTIMACY BETWEEN GOD AND MAN WAS DESTROYED AND….. GOD TURNED HIS FACE AWAY

Numbers 6:25 – the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace 1 Chronicles 16:11 – Look to the Lord and His strength…. seek His face. 2 Chronicles 7:14 – If my people who are called by my Name, will humble themselves and seek My face. Psalm 4:6 – Let the light of your face shine upon us, oh Lord. Psalm 27:8 – My heart says to you, ‘Seek His face,’ Your face Lord, I will seek. Psalm 31:16 – Let your face shine on your servant; save me in your unfailing love.
