Developing A Biblical World View

A GREAT PROMISE

In this darkest moment of human history, God made a great promise. God said to Satan:

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 3:15)

This was the first revelation of a special plan of God. It revealed that a battle would rage throughout the centuries between man and Satan, but God would eventually send someone to crush man's enemy and restore man to right relationship with God. That "someone" was the Lord Jesus Christ. You will learn more about this special plan of God for all mankind as you continue this study.

TWO WORLDS

Genesis 3:15 also reveals another important fact. All men live in two worlds. We live in the natural world which is made up of continents and countries. The natural world is that which we can see with our physical eyes. We also live in a spiritual world. You cannot see this world with your physical eyes, but it is just as real as the natural world in which you live.

All men have a natural body which lives in the natural world, but remember that man was created with an eternal soul and spirit. Your spiritual being [soul and spirit] is part of the spiritual world just as your natural body is part of the natural world.
