The New Eve & New Adam

Consequences of the first sin- Serpent

(Genesis 3:14-19)
The Lord God said to the serpent, 'Because you have done this cursed are you among all animals and among all wild creatures; upon your belly you should go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life. I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your offspring and hers; he will strike your head, and you will strike his heel.'

Reflection:
Now, the first sin has causes us to separate from God because God is so pure and but God already has a plan to save humankind from the very beginning. The serpent is the evil that tempted adam and eve to sin, their work is to destroy humankind.
God said he will put hatred between:
"You and the woman" referring to the evil and Mary, the new Eve. "
Your offspring and hers referring to the evils and Jesus, son of Mary, the new Adam.

The coming of the saviour has already been long waiting for and before His comin, God has sent many prophets to the people such as Abraham, Moses, Jacob, Jeremiah, etc to lead us. Indeed the saviour has came to the world and he is Jesus. We believe he will have the second coming. The first coming, he was born of a Virgin Mary by the power of the Holy Spirit in a lowly location. At second coming, Jesus will come in Glory to judge the living and the dead and take dominion over all nations. He will strike the evil's head. Death, suffering, crying, pain shall be no more.

Let us thank God for the redemption. He is indeed forever merciful. Amen.
