Becoming as ONE of us
Another look at Genesis 3:22 to see how this might relate to the Church.
(FIRST): CHRIST?
Ge 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as ONE of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
Lu 18:19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save ONE, {} God.
Joh 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be ONE, even as we are ONE:
Ga 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all ONE in CHRIST Jesus.
Eph 4:4 {} ONE body, and ONE Spirit, even as ye are called in ONE hope of your calling;
Eph 4:5 ONE Lord, ONE faith, ONE baptism,
Eph 4:6 ONE GOD and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
Mr 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is ONE LORD:
1Jo 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the FATHER, the WORD, and the HOLY GHOST: and these three are ONE.
Eze 1:28 As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of ONE that spake.
BEFORE THE FALL: ADAM (CHURCH) KNEW GOOD (CHRIST), BUT NOT EVIL (ANTICHRIST)?
Ge 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as ONE of us, to know **good** and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
Ge 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very **good**. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

Eph 4:7 But unto every ONE of us is given **grace** according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
Jas 4:11 Speak not evil ONE of ANOTHER, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
Ac 17:27 That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every ONE of us:
1Jo 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked ONE toucheth him not.
Ac 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every ONE OF YOU in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
AFTER THE FALL: ADAM (CHURCH) KNOWS EVIL AS ANTICHRIST (ONE)
Ge 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as ONE OF US, to know good and **evil:** and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
Ge 3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be **AS GODS**, knowing good and **evil**.
Ge 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt SURELY DIE.
1Jo 3:12 Not as Cain, who was of that **wicked** ONE, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous.
Ps 34:21 **Evil** shall slay THE WICKED: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
Ro 14:12 So then every ONE of us shall give account of himself to God.
Ga 5:17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the ONE to the OTHER: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
Ga 4:24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the ONE from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.
Ga 4:22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the ONE <1520> by a bondmaid, the OTHER <1520> by a freewoman.
2Co 2:7 So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps SUCH A ONE should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.
1Co 5:5 To deliver SUCH AN ONE unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
Ru 4:1 Then went Boaz up to the gate, and sat him down there: and, behold, the kinsman of whom Boaz spake came by; unto whom he said, Ho, SUCH A ONE! turn aside, sit down here. And he turned aside, and sat down.
De 17:6 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of ONE witness he shall not be put to death.
SUMMARY CONCLUSION
The fall of Adam and Eve appears to have been a type of what happens to the Church in the Day of Judgment. Becoming as “ONE of us” therefore is the product of antichrist ruling in judgment. The number ONE being identified with God Himself. However in judgment, it becomes the evil ONE who bears the NAME of Christ (Good) but is of antichrist.
