food, water, air and sunlight that we receive
reciprocal relationship of giving and receiving between subject and object both within each of us and without between individuals. This giving, receiving and responding is call Give and Take action. .

I, II & III
IV only
all of the above

16. What differentiate the purpose of the whole and individual purpose?
purpose of the whole brings joy to God and others whilst individual purpose brings joy to self
no different, since pursuing any of the two would lead to the same results
pursuing individual purpose would eventually lead to fulfilling purpose of the whole whereas pursuing purpose of the whole would lead to complete denial and suppression of individual purposes

17. Explain the original relationship that God wanted to establish with man from the understanding of give & take action?
God wanted to affirm that He is the ruler & master and man in the servant position is suppose to just obey and follow. If they have done that they would have established perfect give and take relationship with God.
God, giving the commandments to man is God's love for his children at the time of Adam and Eve. If Adam and Eve had responded in trust, faith and obedience a perfect vertical give & take relationship with God would have been established and mankind maintaining this vertical relationship would be able to maintain harmonious horizontal relationships by living for each other
If Adam and Eve had responded to God in obedience to His commandments, God would then be able love them unconditional as His children and the descendants of Adam and Eve would be His children for eternity.

18. Due to the fall of the first human ancestors, fallen mankind lost the perfect vertical give and take with God. What is God's plan for salvation?
God must come in place of Adam and established the perfect vertical give and take with God. Those that believe in this Messiah will be saved
God predestined the fall, and at His pre-determined time He would send to us His only begotten son to save us.
A person like Adam, born without sin, must restore Adam's failure and establish a perfect give and take relationship with God. Mankind establishing perfect give and take with this Messiah would restore their lost relationship of give and take relationship with God.

19. What can we say about purpose of creation?
I. each creation has its own purpose of existence
II. after the Fall, man is the most miserable of God's creation because fallen man is confused and ignorant of the purpose of his existence.
III. Man's purpose of existence is determined by his creator, God. By understanding the purpose of creation we can understand the true purpose of man and the universe
IV. God does not have a clear purpose for man because God want us to determine our own purpose
I & II
I, II & III
IV only
all the above

20. What else can we say about God's purpose of creation?
God's purpose of creation changes according to man's situation
God's purpose of creation or His will is eternal, unchanging and unique just as He is eternal, unchanging and unique.
God has no ideal since God gave man free choice and freedom

21. What can we say about joy?
I. it is a feeling that you create yourself. Depending on how you prepare your state of mind we can meet all experiences with joy.
II. joy is not created by the individual alone. It comes when we have an object, whether invisible or visible in which we see our own nature refleced and feel the stimulation derived from the object
III. when we as children of God respond to God's expectations and fulfill His hopes and dreams for us, we give joy to God and ourselves
I & II
II & III
all the above
none of the above

22. What can we say about God giving the commandments to Adam and Eve?
test of faith
God expressed His will and heart of love for man. Man as an object of love and joy, was suppose to respond most directly to God's will and heart
God knew that Adam and Eve would disobeyed Him so He predestined the coming of Christ to redeem sinful mankind.

23. God's purpose for creating man is
I. the 3 great blessings in Gen 1:28: fruitful, multiply and fill the earth and have dominion
II. perfection of His love by uniting in heart with God and inheriting His love; multiplying children of goodness centering on God's love by practising True Conjugal love and realising True Parenthood; and dominating the creation with God's love centering on God.
III. beyond man's understanding and man should just believe and have faith

24. What is the meaning of God's first blessing to man?
all endeavours of man will be fruitful and successful
to become perfected individuals who are one heart with God, thinking and living centering on God thus achieving deity and becoming the fruit of God's vertical love
to have many children

25. When man achieves God's first blessing of perfection what will be man's relationship with God?
sons & daughters: man will share all God's feeling as their own and man would not do anything that would bring grief and sorrow to God's heart. Perfected man would rather want to bring joy to God.
perfected man would be independent from God since He wanted mankind to be gods as well
man still must maintain his servant position and serve God

26. What is the meaning of God's second blessing for mankind?
to have unrestricted freedom and have wonderful children, establishing families that can be obedient to God
after fulfilling the first blessing of individual perfection, God wanted Adam and Eve to become eternal husband and wife perfecting the heavenly family multiplying children of goodness.
God wanted Adam and Eve to multiply the fruitfulness that God has blessed them with.

27. What else can we say about the 2nd blessing?
I. since God gave all three blessings, the 2nd blessing takes immediate effect together with the 1st and the 3rd blessing. That means God wanted Adam and Eve to have children of goodness immediately i.e. God blessed them husband and wife.
II. Given the right to multiply God's children of goodness, man would experience with his children the same joy that God experiences in His vertical love for us
III. Adam and Eve would have become the True Father and True Mother of all mankind, thus becoming the eternal True Parents of mankind
IV. This true family would then form true society, true nation and true world centering on God's love and truth. This would establish God's eternal Kingdom of Heaven on earth and in Heaven.
I & II
I, II & III
II, III & IV
all the above

28. What can we say about the third blessing of "dominion" given to Adam and Eve?
God wanted mankind to be the ruler of this world just as God is ruler over man.
God created man in His image and He created the Creation in the image of man. God wanted man to dominate the creation with love and truth in the same manner as He is the God of love and truth to us.
Man does not need to earn this right to rule since God blessed this right and authority to mankind at the time of Adam and Eve. Blessing as the word implies is a gift from God. However, the only condition is that man must be eternally obedient to God as the ruler.

29. What can we say about the world if Adam & Eve had fulfilled the 3 blessings?
I. there would still be evil as it is today since God want mankind to choose between Him or self-centeredness
II. God and man, and man and creation would be in complete harmony thus establishing the Kingdom of Heaven on earth
III. mankind would live on earth with a life of total oneness with God and upon physical death would pass into the spiritual Kingdom of Heaven

32. What evidence do we have that man also was not created perfected but was supposed to be perfected through a growth period for perfection?
Adam and Eve need no period of perfection since they were created by God

The Bible did not reveal this and thus we should not speculate
