Did you know that Genesis was one of the last books of the old Testament to be written, even though it appears as the first? The Garden story is about original sin. In the high church, Advent always begins with the reading about Adam and Eve, and because they sinned and were cast out of the garden, Christ comes to forgive our sins. Though when you think about it, man has to wait thousands of years for Christ to come so that he might find eternal rest. I believe that in the Catholic Church, they believe that those soles rested in Hell until his coming, and there are some who believe all souls rest in Hell until the second coming. It gets confusing and frustrating. Theology is always a bummer
But in some corners of the church, hell is a waiting place, as is Purgatory. There was a play written called I think, "The Waiting Room". All these people are just waiting in a room for something, and they don't realize that they have died. Anyway, Genesis was written late, because it ties into the prophesy of the Messiah.
As for Satan, did you know that in the Aramaic, Satan mean prosecutor. He condemns us like a prosecuting attorney of our sins, and thus demoralizes us. Anyway, that's the theology. Then Christ gives us hope by forgiving us of our sins, and gives eternal life. So because of Adam and Eve, we are all guilty of sin, and who isn't, but it doesn't matter, because we are forgiven. And I hope you all have a Merry Christmas, because The Garden and the birth of Christ are part of the same. One of the Christmas carols of the Anglican Church is "Adam Lay Ebounden". I guess you can't have forgiveness without sin.
