The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E. Fleming where we “true” the verse of Genesis 3:16. The Tru316 Message is that “God didn’t curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.” Once Genesis 3:16 is made clear the other passages on women and men become clear too. You are encouraged to access the episodes of Seasons 1-11 of The Eden Podcast for teaching on the seven key passages on women and men. Are you a reader? We invite you to get from Amazon the four books by Bruce C. E. Fleming in The Eden Book Series (Tru316.com/trubooks). Would you like to support the work of the Tru316 Foundation?

Beyond Eden “High Jump” of Ephesians 5:22-6:9 Mar 09, 2025

Show notes

Dive deep into this MAJOR PASSAGE! What about "submission" in Ephesians 5:22-24? Paul teaches reciprocating submission among Spirit-filled believers (compare 5:18b-21, and 5:33). What about "love"? Paul teaches that even mutual up-building must have LOVE as a major component. Just "as Christ" loved in 5:23b, 25b and throughout this passage, so too for the partners in the Christian marriage of 5:33. What about "head"? Paul is not not referring to authority or source. He is talking about the GREAT MYSTERY of 5:31 and 32 - the unity of believers and Christ in one joint-body.

Go deeper? Read Beyond Eden, Ephesians 5:15-6:9 by Bruce C. E. Fleming, available on Amazon in paperback (with Study Guides, great for group studies), as a Kindle eBook and on Audible as an audio book!

Beyond Eden Insight #2. The two "Jumps" in Eph 5:15-21 Feb 23, 2025

Show notes

Be filled with the Spirit? Submit to one another? These two commands are NOT saying what many claim. Learn what the patterns in this passage tell us about these key verses in Ephesians 5:18 and 21.

WHY? When we come to the "women verse" in 5:22 we will know the context of THAT verse and understand it much much better.

Beyond Eden Insight #1 - Ephesians 5-6 Feb 16, 2025

Show notes

Too often verses in Ephesians 5-6 get taken out of context. Beyond Eden Insight #1 places these verses in context which is the Jump, Jump, High Jump pattern that runs from 5:15 through 6:9. The main point of the entire passage is found in 5:32! Have you seen it? We go deeper into this passage in the book "Beyond Eden, Ephesians 5:15-6:9" available on Amazon and on Audible!

Eden Insight #4 God Did NOT Talk to Eve about Pain in Childbirth Jan 26, 2025

Show notes

No! God Did NOT Talk to Eve about Pain in Childbirth. God talked to Eve about (1) toil in fieldwork because of the coming curse on the ground and about (2) conception in fulfillment of God's promise of offspring who would crush the serpent's head! Neither of these had to do with what you'll find in most English versions that talk about "pain in childbearing." Let's "true" the verse and let God's actual words come through. The closest we can find in English is the KJV.

PLUS - how lives are being changed through our podcast, books and courses!

Eden Insight #3 God's parallel words to the rebels - the serpent and the man! Jan 19, 2025

Show notes

Eden Insight #3. God's SIX-POINT Parallel Word Pattern to the Serpent and to the Man. Why this pattern? They were both first-degree rebels. Each merited a curse. Yet not one point is found in God's words to the woman! Have you noticed?

Go deeper! Make sure to listen to Season One of The Eden Podcast where we go through Genesis 2-3 step by step.

Even deeper? Purchase Dr. Joy Fleming's dissertation. Available from Tru316.com/shop

Eden Insight #2. Both ate. Both died. But they chose differently. Jan 12, 2025

Show notes

The Fall is not a biblical word! They were attacked! Each ate. Each died. But each acted from different motivations.

The woman was deceived. She ate for good reasons.

He ate rebelliously joining the serpent in rejecting God's words.

Getting this clearly in mind prepares us for reading what happened next when God spoke to the serpent and to the man using the same six point pattern.
