GOD’S PLAN OF
REDEMPTION
Passage:
Genesis 3:14-24
Key verse:
15
1. God’s hope
of redemption (14-15)
After cursing the serpent, God promised to
send a Savior through the offspring
of woman who would crush Satan’s head, though Satan would
wound him. God
planned a way of redemption that was man’s only hope.
2. Mankind under a curse
(16-19)
As a result of sin, all of God’s blessings would become
cursed. For woman, her
mission to be a suitable helper would turn
into cursed desire for her husband’s
love. Child-bearing, her pride and joy, would
come at great cost and pain. For
man, work would become a painful,
interminable struggle to survive, after which
he would return to the dust.
3. A new beginning
(20-24)
Adam named the woman Eve, respecting her key
role as mother of the living.
As a display of his unconditional love, God
provided animal skins to clothe them.
Righteous God banished them from the Garden,
and cherubim guarded the tree
of life so that sinners could not reach it.
Prayer Lord God, your promise of salvation is our
only hope. Help me to rise
above this cursed world and trust only in
Jesus’ salvation.
One Word Trust in God’s hope and salvation
