The Shorter Catechism opens with a section on the history of redemption – we started with God's eternal purpose from before the foundation of the world, and then worked through his works of creation and providence.
Over the last couple weeks we've been talking about humanity's problem – how we have come under the power of sin, misery, and death.
God created Adam and Eve in his image – after his likeness, and entered into a covenant of life with them. But Adam and Eve broke covenant with God, refused the inheritance of life, and instead inherited an estate of sin and misery.
It's fitting that we think about this during Advent, because this story of sin and rebellion is the whole reason why Jesus Christ had to come. Adam's sin required that one of Adam's race repair his fault. But the problem is that Adam's race is hopelessly mired in an estate of sin and misery!
