Entrance of Sin and Gods Judgement

God created humans to be in relationship with him, but he honoured them with the freedom to choose whether to love him or live independantly of Him.These Questions are prompted by God's concern, but the Questions are occasioned by human sin. The first human pair were created to live by trust - Trust in God's word, sadly they failed to do that and entered into sin. As under managers of God's estate they were given the tasks and responsibilities for which they were accountable, but they squandered their God given gifts in the service of self rather than God. That too was sin. They sought to find emotional wholeness and well being outside of God's will which was also sin.

God's Judgement and Curse Upon Earth

So the Lord God said to the serpent: "Because you have done this, you are cursed more than the cattle, and more than every beast of the field: on your belly you shall go, and you shall eat the dust all the days of your life. (Genesis 3:14)

The above suggests that at the original creation of God, the serpent could have been in a form similar to that of a cattle or a beast. But since the Devil entered into it and it permitted, God's judgement and curse was pronounced and thus a change of its form to move on its belly.

God's Judgement upon woman

To the woman He said," I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception: in pain you shall bring forth children; your desire shall be for your husband and he shall rule over you. (Genesis 3: 16)

The above is true, that all women from that time on wards go through multiplied sorrow during conception and pain in bringing forth the child. God who designed the marriage declares that husband shall rule the wife.

God's Judgement Upon Man Who Loses His dominion over earth to satan

Then to Adam He said," Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you saying, " You shall not eat of it; cursed is the ground for your sake; in toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life.Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you, and you shall eat the herb of the field. In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for dust you are, and to dust you will return. (Genesis 3:17-19)

God's Judgement was pronounced upon man that because he did not trust God's word and he being dust and formed out of the earth, the earth shall remain cursed and shall bring forth thorns and thistles and for eating the produce out of it, he has to toil with sweat on his face. God also ordained physical death and pronounced that the body shall return to the earth. It is true and we see the out working of this judgement and curse upon mankind that almost all of us have to toil everyday for our Livelihood.

Wages of Sin

" Behold, souls are mine:The soul who sins shall die. (Ezekiel 18:4)

" For the wages of sin is death." (Romans 6:23)

Consequences of sin is more devastating not merely it breaks God's law, but it breaks God's heart also. According to the above verses, it is not only physical death, but eternal death for the soul created of God which entertains and lives in sin.
