Excerpt from God's Purpose in Israel, as Illustrated in History, Type, and Prophecy Man (like the material creation) had become a ruin empty, waste, and desolate; and here, as there, the first motion came from God. It was his purpose. In the one case the Spirit of God moved, and God said, &o. In the other they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden, 810. God was here, as ever, the seeker and the finder of lost and hiding sinners. It is He who first speaks in the first question of the Old Testament, Where art thou that the sinner may discover his lost and ruined condition, and, in the language of the first question of the New Testament, cry out for the Saviour, saying, Where is He? Where is the promised Deliverer and Saviour provided for lost Sinners? Yes, it is God who utters the first word of promise, who gives the first gleam of hope, and who declares His eternal purpose, that the head of the serpent, which had wrought all the Sin and misery, ruin and death, Should be crushed by the coming seed of the woman, not by the woman whose false worship is upborne by the uncrushed head or wisdom of the serpent as seen and represented by the pictures and the Scriptures of false religion, but by her seed -the Son of man. In this coming One, and in Him alone, from that moment all hope of future blessing was centered. But so far the hope was wide. No clue was afforded as to whom the purpose referred, beyond the great fact that He should be a Son of Adam, the Son of man. But the Son of man might be of any nation, people, or tongue. Hence the next step was to narrow down the limits of this hope, and define the particular nation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
