Genesis 1-3 makes me sad.
Adam was:
♥ the outset God breathed life into
♥ the 1 God permit advert the animals (how fun!)
♥ the 1 who walked together with talked alongside God inwards the garden paradise created for simply for him.
But he became the 1 who chose to disobey the solely dominion God gave him...the only rule!
And He disobeyed fifty-fifty though He wasn't deceived. He knew what he was doing, but he did it anyway (1 Timothy 2:14).
And when God caught him alongside forbidden fruit on his lips, he blamed his married adult woman together with blamed God for giving him his wife! (3:12)
But this is the utilisation that actually blows my mind: God didn't destroy him.
He gave Adam approximately other jeopardy together with gave us all a clue nearly the solely means Adam's sin could live overcome (3:15).* H5N1 means that toll God dearly.
My sadness over Adam's sin is solely exceeded past times my awe for God's incredible love.

* "And I volition seat enmity betwixt y'all together with the woman, together with betwixt your offspring together with hers; he volition shell your head, together with y'all volition blast his heel."
These words spoken to the ophidian foreshadow the coming of Christ. Christ is the solely 1 who is the "offspring" or the "seed of woman" (KJV) since no human was involved inwards His birth. Satan (the serpent) did "strike at Christ's heel" (i.e. inflict a injure on the Cross), but Christ crushed Satan's caput (inflicted a fatal blow). Theologians telephone scream upward this poesy protoevangelium. See equally good Romans 16:20.
