Tear Down the Wall

{illustrations by William Blake}

{God said that this was "very good" but the enemy had something else in mind. Both the man and woman traded this truth for a lie. But God would not allow what he had created as "very good" to be destroyed. He looked to redemption for the relationship of the man and the woman.}

{As a result the enemy cursed the "very good" relationship between the man and the woman. But in response God put emnity between the Devil and the woman. However the damage was done and man put emnity between himself and the woman.}

"Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: but when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, To redeem..." Galatians 4:3-4

{The woman fulfilled her call to redemption at the cross. Her seed struck the head of the enemy to redeem all mankind. And Jesus willingly laid down his life not only to tear down the dividing wall of hostility between God and mankind, but also the dividing wall of hostility between man and woman. It was finished in the eyes of God. But the devil has waged war against the woman for the cross. Are you still waging war against her for the garden tree?}
