Why has God allowed suffering and wickedness until our days? (Part 5)

2 min readJan 25, 2021

Shortly before the end of that day, before sunset, God judged the three culprits (Genesis 3:8–19). Before determining the guilt of Adam and Eve, Jehovah God asked them a question about their gesture. So they replied: ““The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree, so I ate.” (…) “The serpent deceived me, so I ate.”” (Genesis 3:12,13). Far from admitting they were guilty, both Adam and Eve tried to justify themselves. Adam even indirectly reproached God for giving him a woman who made him sin: “The woman whom you gave to be with me”. In Genesis 3:14–19, we can read the judgment of God with a promise of the fulfillment of his purpose: “And I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your offspring and her offspring. He will crush your head, and you will strike him in the heel” (Genesis 3:15). By this promise, Jehovah God was particularly signifying that his purpose would inevitably come true, by informing Satan the devil that he would be destroyed. From that moment on, sin entered into the world, as well as its main consequence, death: “That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because they had all sinned” (Romans 5:12).
