God Draws Straight with Crooked Lines Part 2 (Adam and Eve)

Probably one of the biggest crooked line that God has made straight is the Fall.  God made man in his own image.  God made man and woman, and it was very good.  God made mankind to live in His presence forever.  God made man to work.  To flourish.  To enjoy Him forever.  In the beginning, God made things good.

"8 And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool[c] of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the Lord God called to the man and said to him, “Where are you?”[d] 10 And he said, “I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.” 11 He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?” 12 The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate.” 13 Then the LordGod said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”

14 The Lord God said to the serpent,

“Because you have done this,
    cursed are you above all livestock
    and above all beasts of the field;
on your belly you shall go,
    and dust you shall eat
    all the days of your life.
15 I will put enmity between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring[e] and her offspring;
he shall bruise your head,
    and you shall bruise his heel.”

16 To the woman he said,

“I will surely multiply your pain in childbearing;
    in pain you shall bring forth children.
Your desire shall be for[f] your husband,
    and he shall rule over you.”

- Genesis 3: "8-16."

God was broken-hearted when his prize jewel of creation betrayed Him.  This would be a larger example of every single time we betray him.  Every time we sin.  But there is a solution.  A beautiful, wondrous, amazing solution.  He would use a the same line who sinned against Him, to redeem His people.  He promised His Son to "take away the sins of the world."
