Strong’s Concordance

I think that it is safe to say that as the Priest King, who God placed in the Garden of Eden, Adam was also clothed with the Holy Spirit. Therefore, although Genesis 2:25 tells us that Adam and Eve were physically naked, they would have been protected and prevented from being embarrassed because of being clothed with the Holy Spirit.

After Adam and Eve sinned the clothing of the Holy Spirit was immediately removed from them.

Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.

Genesis 3:7 NIV

The fig leaves represent their attempt to make something to substitute for the Holy Spirit. However, it is not possible for anything to substitute for the Holy Spirit.

There are too many churches that try to use something in place of the Holy Spirit. However, this does not work. These churches have no power. They have a form of Godliness, but deny the Power thereof.
