| '''Eagle'''
| |
| | |
| The eagle represents those who forget God. Perhaps Adam saw the lone eagle on high, looking down on all and thought to himself, "That bird thinks he is a god". When we forget God, we sometimes think we can make our own rules.
| |
| | |
| King Nebuchadnezzar forgot God and thought he built his kingdom all by himself. His hair became like eagle's feathers and his nails like eagle's claws. <ref>{{bgw| Da 4:33 }} The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles’ [feathers], and his nails like birds’ [claws].</ref>
| |
| | |
| We don't want to forget that God gives us everything. He gives us each breath of life for our bodies, and he gives the Spirit for our second life.

| '''Ossifrage'''
| |
| | |
| The ossifrage eats almost only bones. It would have been quite a sight for Adam to see one tear his food apart and break the bones . He named the ossifrage 'divide'. We should avoid those things which simply cause division and with doctrines different from the Bible. <ref>{{bgw| Ro 16:17 }} Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.</ref>
| |
| | |
| How would we know if someone is teaching different from the Bible? We must know the Bible for ourselves.
