Curses
The next ‘fruits’ of sin are described in the curses that God speaks, highlighting the seriousness of sin and the natural consequences of our actions. Instead of peace, harmony and tranquility, the world is plunged into conflict, struggle and slavery. People are subjected to age-old struggles with the Devil, the earth and each other. We are born into adversary and die in adversary. But Jesus comes to put an end to it, once and for all. He brings deliverance and offers the hope of delivery. He submits to his enemy in order to set us free.
