ATONEMENT BY THE BLOOD;..The wonderful plan of redemption was made from the beginning. God willed and desired the salvation of man from the time the first man and woman disobeyed Him in the garden of Eden. God made man higher than all other creatures of His hand,giving him dominion over all things He created. Man was created in Gods own image after His likeness.(Genesis1:26). The perfect, holy, sinless,merciful and righteous God imparted His nature into man. Adam and Eve were in that perfect state before they yielded to the serpents temptation and did exactly what God commanded them not to do. From that time, God promised the world a Saviour, AND I WILL PUT ENMITY BETWEEN THEE AND THE WOMAN, AND BETWEEN THY SEED AND HER SEED;IT SHALL BRUISE THY HEAD AND THOU SHALT BRUISE HIS HEEL(Genesis1;15). Here we have the first prophercy that Jesus would come to this world to redeem mankind and defeat mans arch-enemy. God through prophet Isaiah again said,THEREFORE THE LORD HIMSELF SHALL GIVE A SIGN,BEHOLD,A VIRGIN SHALL CONCEIVE, AND BEAR A SON, AND SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL Isaiah7:14. sin brings death, the soul that sinneth, it shall die Ezekiel18;4, this death is spiritual separation from GOD, but because of the love of God for mankind, he gave Jesus as a substitute to die in your stead to save youfrom sin.
