Genesis 3: 14-15

Upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life

 

『And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:  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. 』 (Genesis 3: 14-15)

Life on earth came under Satan's control. Under Satan's rule, the creatures should try to do righteousness on their own. "You have done this" means "because the serpent had deceived Eve and ate the fruit of the tree that knew good and evil." The beasts were also cursed, but the snake was further cursed and crawled. The snake symbolizes Satan and his followers. Going by boat is crawling the ground. Those who crawl on the earth do not see the kingdom of God, because the children of Satan are those who have fallen from heaven.

"You shall eat dust." Dust is "Apar" in Hebrew. Apar (dust) is mixed with water to create a human shape. So dirt means man. That means Satan swallows humans. So, Satan makes humans his children. God allowed Satan to rule over life in this world. God's people eat the word of God, but the children of the devil eat things of the world. 『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. ” All humans were Satan's children, and there were those who listened to God and wanted to escape from Satan. So, it hurts the heel.

Satan's children (people of the world) are biting a serpent with poisonous teeth, "those who hear the word and want to turn to God." Satan distorts the word of God, and deceives the people of the world with the word of God. Satan causes believers to fall into the world's ups and downs. Satan hinders people from seeing the things of heaven and keeps their eyes on the world. The Bible shows what happens to those who have left the Word of God from Genesis 3 onwards. They were judged by God because they left the word of God's promise. A woman's descendants are the seed of promise (Christ). Satan deceives all living things into this world. So, Satan and those who are deceived by Satan have been banished from the kingdom of God, and are also cursed on this earth. If you become a child of Satan, you will not receive heavenly life.

『 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. 』 The snake symbolizes Satan. The descendants of women are those who have the seed of promise (Christ), and the descendants of the serpent are those who do not have the seed of promise. The sons of God are those who have the seed of promise, and the daughters of men are those who do not have the seed of promise. Originally, in the kingdom of God, spirits came to this earth, and they were born as human beings combined with dust.

God has made promises to the spirits that are sent to the earth. Although he was born into the world by getting a body from Adam, the first person. The descendants of the woman are saved from Satan's power and saved through the last Adam. There is a fierce spiritual war between the descendants of women and the descendants of snakes. The descendants of women are those who have the seed of promise. The spirits of heaven come to this world to fulfill their righteousness, realize that it is impossible, and wait for Christ to come. However, the descendants of the serpent are those who are deceived by Satan on this earth and try to keep their righteousness. It means that they fall over the descendants of women.

The way that the serpent's descendants fall over the woman's is to distort the Bible or use the things of the world. So, when people are deceived by snakes, they don't know who the snake's descendants are. To realize that you are being deceived by a serpent, you must check whether you are in Christ. He who is in Christ gives up his righteousness. If you think and act as if you can achieve righteousness, you are outside Christ.

In the parable of the sheep and goats, both sheep and goats said they had never met Jesus. By the way, Jesus never met a goat, but he met a sheep. Sheep have poor eyesight, but she's after someone. The parable of the sheep and the goats means the difference between "do or not do it yourself". If you deny yourself, the Holy Spirit comes. The same goes for the parable of the ten virgins. Both the wise virgin and the foolish virgin were lighting their lights together, but the bridegroom was slow, so the foolish virgin's lamp was extinguished. The foolish virgins went to buy oil and the door was closed. He tells us that those who seek to fulfill their righteousness are those who are locked in the law.

The five foolish virgins are those who do not have the Holy Spirit because they have broken the law. In Romans 6: 4『 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 』 The Holy Spirit comes to the dead with Jesus. Those who died with Jesus realized who God was. He was originally one in the kingdom of God, but he was a person who left to try to achieve righteousness himself. So, the one who asserts his righteousness dies with Jesus and becomes a new one and returns to God.

The cross on which Jesus Christ died was a ransom for all mankind, but God blesses those who seek to repent and return to God. God does not favor Satan's children. The plan of the cross was already established when the spirits had their own righteousness by the delusion of Satan before the creation of the world. To get rid of one's righteousness, he must pay the price. The cost is death with Jesus. This is God's righteousness.

So, God created a material world to make humans (the first man, Adam) out of dirt, to make the spirits who did not keep their status as women, and through Adam and women, many people were born into this world. Those who have received the promise of the seed return to the kingdom of God through the last Adam (Christ).

The apostle Paul testified of faith in Jesus to King Agrippa. In Acts 26: 17-18, 『Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God , that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. So, salvation is returning to God from Satan's power. They were Satan's children, becoming sons of God and returning to the kingdom of God. Those who believe in Jesus and believe that they are saved should think about whether they have escaped the power of darkness.

The only way out of the powers of darkness is to be united with Jesus who died on the cross. Thus, those who escape from the powers of darkness admit Jesus with their mouths and believe in their hearts to enter salvation. Salvation must be preceded by the departure from darkness. It is not important that we know Jesus, but that Jesus must know us. Jesus knew only those who died together on the cross. This is the blood covenant.
