Salvation Before The World Began
In the garden of Eden from the outset of sin God in His mercy began to reveal to Adan and Eve the plan of salvation He had instituted for their recovery to the divine image. It began with Genesis 3:15. God showed the couple that they would be required to sacrifice animals on a regular basis demonstrating that one day He Himself would sacrifice His life for theirs. It’s a law of the universe that sins brings death because sin irreversibly separates the possessor from God who is the source all life; but God demonstrated that love found a way to salvage the human dilemma. God Himself would pay that penalty. He would give His humanlife for man’s, thus securing humanity. It would be up to mankind to accept this provision and live or reject it and forfeit life with God.
