A bit of background firstly as this leads up to God's Plans for mankind.

In Genesis 2:17 God spoke to Adam (not the woman) and said ".....of the tree of good and evil you will not eat of it, for in the day that you eat of it you will surely die...."

At some time Adam had told Eve of this command from God, not to touch or eat from this tree, however when the serpent told Eve she wouldn't die and deceived her with further lies, she succumbed as did Adam.

In Ch.3:4 the serpent said to Eve "You will not surely die".

So here we have two conflicting statements: God stating they will dieand satan stating they will not die.

As we all know Eve took the fruit and gave some to Adam and they ate of

this fruit. They had disobeyed God and rebelled against His authority and by doing so, sin came into the world. Not only sin but death to all people.

In Romans 6:23 it states "for the wages of sin isdeath......"

GOD IMMEDIATELY BRINGS HIS PLAN INTO PLACE. God spoke to the serpent and said ".....and I will put enmity (hostility) between you and the woman, and between your seed(unbelievers) and HER SEED...............".

The human race now needs someone to rescue it from sin and from death and certainly no human can do that. So God plans to send a Saviour and redeem us (buy us back/pay the price) to save us from our sin, give us eternal life and bring us back to God, and that person would come from "HER SEED". HER SEED, is MARY, who would give birth to the Saviour, Jesus. Notice it is "her" seed because no human male was involved. Jesus was God's Son.

So Jesus went to the cross and "paid the price". That price was taking our sins on His body and dying. If He had not died and risen, we would die and not rise again. Remember, "the wages of sin is death." Now to those of every generation who have asked Jesus to come into their life and repented of their sin, they are forgiven and will have life after death with Him in a glorious home called heaven.

So that was the PLAN God began in the garden when sin come into the world. It was about 4000 years later when Mary (her seed) gave birth to the Saviour, Jesus. It seems an awfully long time but God's timing is always "at the right time." or in the "fullness of time" as The Bible says.

Our Fathers plan for this 2nd of 3 earth iterations (2nd Peter ch3) did not change in the garden. The failure there was Adam and Eve were among the Tree of life (Christ) and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Satan) and did not pass the test. Adam and Eve both were seduced by the serpent (Satan Rev 12) and therefore rejected from the garden and the presence of Christ.

Our Father states in Genesis 6 it pained him to have created flesh mankind, however his plans did not change as this 2nd of 3 earth iterations finds its purpose in Revelation 12. There we find 1/3 of all our Fathers children were deceived by Satan, that old serpent, in the 1st iteration. This 2nd iteration is to allow souls a chance to redeem themselves. That plan has not changed since day one.
