RE: [asa] What is exactly is a TE?

I am not sure I understand. God reveled Himself to "humanity" and simultaneously "humanity" became spiritually aware. Is that a substitute for the Genesis creation of man? Henceforth God told man to be obedient to some of His laws and then man did not and so fell? Is that it? What role did God have with the occurrence of "humanity" prior to this historic event?

Revelation! The only way that we can know God is by God's personal
self revelation. That revelation is through God's word, through the
Spirit, and finally and most completely through the person of Jesus
Christ.

In my view, the beginning of humanity in the image of God coincided
with humanity's ability to be spiritually aware, and God's self
revelation.
