In reading Genesis 1-11 (NIV), one can find several different major events in a very few amount of pages. Genesis speaks of the creation of everything. Genesis speaks of mans’ disobedience to God. Genesis speaks of God’s punishment of man. Genesis speaks of God’s promise to send a redeemer.
Genesis explains that God spoke and the Universe, the Earth, animals, plants, and man were created. After God had Adam (man) name all of the animals, he realized that Adam needed a partner so he created Eve (woman) out of Adam’s rib to be by his side, his partner in life. God commanded all of his creations to be fruitful and multiply.
Man disobeyed God’s one rule which was not to eat from a certain tree; the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Both Adam and Eve attempted to blame their disobedience on someone else. God made man’s work more difficult, and gave Eve the burden of painful childbirth. God punished man, but he also promised a redeemer that would come to save man from their disobedience. …show more content…

The separation and disobedience continues throughout generations. God grew extremely upset with man and decided to rid the earth of wickedness. God told Noah to build an ark, to take his family and two of every living creature in the world into the ark. God then sent a flood that destroyed all living things on earth. This allowed a rebirth of nature, and Noah and his family were told to spread throughout the Earth. God continued with his promises or covenants with man, he promised a redeemer that would be born of the woman, and man still continues to have to work harder to have the things that he

In this reading we see Adam, after the “fall,” removed from the Garden of Eden and forced to live a human life on Earth. In this way, we may regard Adam as an alien, as someone who in a way does not really belong here. This corresponds with a typical human sentiment when they ask, “Why am I here? What have I done to deserve such a difficult life in such a place, so filled with pain, sadness and tragedy?” In this respect, Adam’s story is the story of everyone.

Approaching Genesis 12:1-4, we have essentially been taken through four significant stories of the fall of humanity—Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Noah and the flood, and the tower at Babel. In each of these stories God punishes their sin, but also extends mercy. Particularly, after having flooded and destroyed all living things that were not spared with Noah upon the ark, God says that he will never again curse the ground because “the intention of man’s heart is evil from his youth” (Gen. 8:21). Herein, God gives a snapshot of the human reality post the Fall, along with a snippet of the reality of his relationship with man. But, it is not until Genesis 12 that we see the arc of the story shift from one of disobedience/sin and punishment/curse

So often God has warned me, and as Cain, I don’t listen and serve the desires of my flesh! Unable to control his anger, his flesh, Cain murders Abel (Matthew 5:21-28). God comes to Cain, again giving him the opportunity to confess and repent (1 John 1:9), but he refuses God’s offer. We can see over and over that God has given man the power of choice and that God respects and honors that decision. However, we make the choice, but God determines the consequences of our choices (Proverbs 28: 13-14).
