“What is Man? Part One ~ Where We Were” by Thomas Sedaker

July 17, 2014 by SF Parrott Leave a Comment


by Thomas Sedaker ~

What is Man That Thou Art Mindful of Him? Where We Were (Part One), The first of a three part series by Thomas Sedaker takes us back to the garden of Eden, explaining what happened and bringing resolution to questions we’ve always wanted to know but never thought of asking.

After the fall, when God called out to Adam, “Where are you?” it wasn’t because He didn’t know where they were. He knew it was imperative that they tell the truth about what just happened in order for Adam and Eve to move toward their destiny and, in turn, help them pinpoint exactly where they were in relation to Him. Unfortunately, they were too busy passing blame to understand God’s intentions, and ultimately bestowed mankind with a legacy of misery and sorrow that’s been passed on from generation to generation.

Surprisingly, what most of us fail to realize is God is still asking this same question today–Where Are You? And without an accurate accounting of what has brought us to our present condition, the question remains unanswerable.

* How much does God really love you?
* What is God’s eternal purpose that goes far beyond the salvation of mankind?
* Why was the “Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil” in the garden?
* Why was Eve not created immediately after making Adam?
* If “Adam was not deceived” as the Bible states, then why did Adam eat the forbidden fruit?
* Why did Adam and Eve cover up certain body parts and not others?
* If Eve was the transgressor, then why did Adam’s sin bring death upon all men?
* How does God’s curses of Adam and Eve affect us even to this day?
* Why Christian wives have a difficult time submitting to their husbands?

Filled with interesting observations, each point shared throughout the book has one intent–to bring understanding to Where We Were, thus, positioning us to respond to God truthfully when asked, “Where Are You?”

What others are Saying….

“Tom Sedaker has written a refreshing and challenging book called, “What Is Man that Thou art Mindful of Him;” the very question King David pondered thousands of years ago. To those who are hungry to understand the deeper mysteries of God; to find real answers from God’s perspective, this will be a pivotal book in your life.”

~ S. Stimson (Scott Stimson Ministries, Intl.)

“The only Book about man’s destiny that’s easy to read, and, yet, explains what most people thought they knew, but didn’t. Completely an Eye-Opener! In my opinion, this is perhaps the best book you will ever read on the subject of man’s origin and destiny in Christ.”

~ R.L. Llanes

“I just completed reading this manuscript and, must say, it was wonderful. The manner, grammar, and ease by which Tom weaves the text, is awesome. The mechanics are just what someone needs to find “step-one,” and go further. Great job!”

~ S. Vivien

“The first time I read this book, I felt the love of God coming through the pages. We ought to all be humbled at what’s being conveyed here.”

~ P. Soyster

About the Author

A first time author, Tom came to the Lord in January of ’72, and while most of his adult life has been spent in the Marketplace as both a Merchant and a Contractor, his passion has always centered on knowing his Savior, Jesus.

Believing God is seamless in all areas of one’s life, Tom’s has been mixed with extraordinary spiritual experiences along with the contemporary trials common to all who work out their salvation in the midst of a dysfunctional world. Tempered, Tom’s writings offer a unique perspective to those hungering for truth, a point of view born from one familiar with both success and failure; the Lord’s Grace continuing to undergird his walk as he’s kept on the path of Righteousness for His name’s sake.

“What is Man that Thou Art Mindful of Him–Where We Were” is Thomas Sedaker’s first book. Part Two of the series, “Where We Are” is due out in 2015. Sedaker currently resides in Southern California with his loving wife, Jani, of 30 years.
