Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden?” (Genesis 3:1) This conversation soon led to disobedience and sin.  The mankind lost its place to come close to Him.  The creation, to all it’s worth worked against its Creator. The curse followed. But God did not forget the Salvation plan He had for the creation.  He promised for a Redeemer.  He said, I will put enmity between you and the woman.  And Between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers. He will crush your head, and you will strike his heel. (Genesis 3:15) As the days went by the promise was long forgotten and the guilt vanished into thin air.  Sin grew, soon the Lord said, “My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal, his days will be a hundred and twenty years.” (Genesis 6) The flood swept clean the earth. But God preserved Noah and his family.  Man’s sin weighed him
