TD Sees it like this :there is the NATURAL and the SUPERNATURAL, a Christian has both methods…on their side. However, we each must “pray” to seek God’s direction on WHICH to pursue at WHAT “point in time” For Christ openly rebuked the Sadduccees (who did not want to believe in the supernatural resurrection Matthew 22:29) He said, “You boys ERR,now knowing the Scriptures OR the power of God‘

Q. Is there any solid answer in history, for “If there a God who formed the heaven and earth, sent Christ and the Church and the book of Acts power, then WHY is there human suffering, poverty, wars, sickness, much pain?”
Chat GPT replies
The question of why there is human suffering, poverty, wars, and sickness despite the existence of a good and powerful God is one of the most profound and enduring questions in theology, philosophy, and human experience. It’s a question that has been wrestled with for millennia, but there are some key biblical principles, historical perspectives, and theological insights that provide answers to this question.
1. The Reality of Free Will and Human Responsibility
At the heart of human suffering, pain, and sin is the reality of free will. God created humanity with the freedom to choose (Genesis 2:16-17). While this gift of free will allows for genuine relationship with God, it also means that humans have the ability to make choices that can lead to suffering, sin, and brokenness.
Sin entered the world through the choices of the first humans, Adam and Eve, in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3). When they disobeyed God, sin entered the world, and with it came pain, suffering, death, and separation from God. This was not God’s original intention, but it is the consequence of human rebellion.
“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” – Romans 6:23 (KJV)
Though the world was created “good” (Genesis 1:31), the presence of evil and suffering in the world is a result of human disobedience and the fallen state of creation. Romans 8:20-22 speaks of how creation itself was subjected to futility and is “groaning” for redemption because of sin.
2. God’s Sovereign Purpose in Suffering
While suffering is a result of human sin and the fallen world, God does not leave humanity without hope. God, in His sovereignty, allows suffering, but He also uses suffering for a greater purpose. In the Bible, we see that suffering can lead to spiritual growth, refinement, and dependence on God.
“Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.” – Romans 5:3-4 (NIV)
This passage teaches that suffering can produce perseverance, character, and hope. It’s through trials that God shapes and molds believers into the image of Christ.
3. Jesus’ Identification with Suffering
One of the most profound answers to the question of suffering is found in the life of Jesus Christ. Jesus, God in the flesh, entered into the world of suffering, poverty, and pain. He lived among the poor, the oppressed, and the marginalized. His ministry was marked by acts of compassion, healing, and miracles. He also suffered deeply in His crucifixion to atone for the sins of humanity.
“Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows…” – Isaiah 53:4 (ESV)
Jesus did not stand apart from suffering. Instead, He embraced it, knowing that His suffering would bring about redemption and restoration for humanity. Jesus’ crucifixion reveals that suffering, though deeply painful, is not without purpose. Through His suffering, He defeated sin, death, and the power of evil, offering eternal life to those who trust in Him (1 Peter 2:24).
4. The Power of the Book of Acts and the Church’s Role
In the Book of Acts, we see the Church empowered by the Holy Spirit to carry on Jesus’ mission—bringing hope, healing, and deliverance to a broken world. The power of the Holy Spirit was demonstrated in acts of healing, miracles, and deliverance from oppression. The apostles were commissioned to continue the work of Christ, proclaiming the gospel and confronting the works of the devil, including disease, oppression, and poverty.
Acts 3:6 recounts the healing of a lame man by Peter, where Peter declares, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!” Similarly, throughout Acts, the apostles heal the sick, cast out demons, and proclaim the good news of Jesus.
Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). Through the Church, empowered by the Holy Spirit, Christians are called to take authority over sickness, poverty, and injustice, and to be agents of God’s redemption in the world. This includes:
- Praying for healing (James 5:14-16).
- Advocating for the poor and the oppressed (Luke 4:18).
- Proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom that brings hope and transformation.
In Acts, the early Church acted with boldness and power, knowing that they were sent out in the authority of Christ to heal the sick, cast out demons, and proclaim the kingdom of God. The Church, empowered by the Holy Spirit, still has the responsibility to carry on this mission today.
5. God’s Promises in the Midst of Suffering
Though suffering is an unfortunate reality in this fallen world, God promises His presence, His peace, and His power to His people as they endure. We see this clearly in the New Testament.
“Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” – Matthew 5:4 (NIV) “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” – Philippians 4:13 (KJV)
God also promises that suffering will not last forever and that He will bring redemption and restoration to the world. The ultimate victory over sin, death, and suffering is promised in the new heaven and new earth (Revelation 21:4), where there will be no more death, mourning, crying, or pain.
6. Why Suffering Exists: A Summary
In summary, suffering exists in the world as a result of sin and human rebellion. However, God has not abandoned the world. He has entered into it, through Jesus Christ, and offers hope, redemption, and healing. The Church, empowered by the Holy Spirit, is called to continue Christ’s mission of destroying the works of the devil—bringing healing, justice, and the gospel to a hurting world.
While we may not fully understand why specific instances of suffering occur, we can trust in God’s sovereign plan. We are called to act as His hands and feet in a world full of pain, taking authority over sickness, poverty, and disease in Jesus’ name, and offering the hope of Christ to all.
Ultimately, the end of suffering is promised in God’s final victory when Christ returns to establish His kingdom in its fullness. Until then, the Church must remain faithful in proclaiming God’s love, power, and kingdom in the world.
Genesis 1–2: Before the Fall – Wholeness Without Brokenness
Before sin ever entered the world, Genesis 1–2 paints a picture of perfect balance.
There was no pain.
No disease.
No mental anguish.
No birth defects, hormonal imbalance, identity confusion, autism, ADHD, addiction, or depression.
There were no curses, only complete peace. In the Hebrew language, this is called shalom—meaning wholeness, wellness, safety, prosperity, and the fullness of life as God intended it.
At that time, Adam and Eve experienced life directly with their Creator, face to face. They had no fear of death, no trauma, no inner torment, and no relational breakdowns. The world and humanity were exactly as God designed: very good (Genesis 1:31)
Genesis 3: The Great Disruption – When Sin Entered
But then, in Genesis 3, sin entered through Adam and Eve’s choice to disobey God. This allowed death, disease, and decay into creation. Suddenly, disorder touched everything:
- Bodies began to break down.
- Minds became confused.
- Emotions turned chaotic.
- Relationships fractured.
- Nature itself groaned under the weight of the curse.
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.” — Romans 5:12 (KJV)
Since that moment, humanity has faced what the Bible describes as the effects of living in a fallen world—one marked by sickness, oppression, and internal and external brokenness.

The Remedy: God’s Eternal Plan to Restore All Things
Even before the fall, God had a plan to redeem humanity through Jesus Christ, His Son. Jesus came to restore the broken, heal the sick, and bring peace to hearts and minds.
Through Jesus, we are not only forgiven from sin but offered healing, deliverance, and the restoration of our full identity as sons and daughters of God. (TD aside: this is an amazing, giant teaching, so no room today to delve deeply into it.Apologies)
1. Christ the Healer and Deliverer
Jesus fulfilled Isaiah’s prophecy:
“He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.” — Isaiah 53:5 (KJV)
In 1 Peter 2:24, this is confirmed for the New Testament Church:
“…by whose stripes ye were healed.”
2. The Acts Church: Ministry in Power
After Jesus ascended, the First Church in the Book of Acts carried forward His work. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, they:
- Healed the sick (Acts 3:6-8).
- Cast out demons and mental oppression (Acts 8:7).
- Preached salvation and the forgiveness of sins (Acts 2:38).
- Restored broken communities through genuine fellowship (Acts 2:44-47).
They followed Jesus’ commission to minister not only to spiritual needs but to physical, mental, emotional and provision, relationship needs as well.
3. Wholeness for Today
Even though we still live in a fallen world where sickness, confusion, and disease are present, the biblical remedy remains the same:
- Repentance (turning our hearts fully to God).
- Faith in Jesus Christ.
- Receiving the Holy Spirit’s power.
- Living in a devoted community of faith.
“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” — Hebrews 13:8 (KJV
Taveau asks
But What About the Problems We Still See?
Until Christ returns, the world will continue groaning under the weight of sin’s curse (Romans 8:22). But through Christ, we are given supernatural tools and authority to resist darkness, minister healing, and walk in peace despite the chaos around us.
This does not mean every illness, disorder, or struggle disappears instantly.
But it does mean that the Church—just like the one in Acts—should still operate in:
- Compassionate care.
- Prayer for healing.
- Deliverance from oppression.
- Support for broken lives.
- Bold preaching of truth with no compromise.

Also, we also must train women—mothers, aunts, grandmothers, leaders of all races—to walk as Christ-like equals, serving alongside men without rivalry, suspicion, or competition.
We teach the full counsel of God, neither watering down His truth nor adding man-made traditions that hurt others.

**Jesus Christ, our Savior and Healer.
** The Holy Spirit, our Comforter and Empowerer.
** The First Church model, full of power, compassion, and truth.
We don’t need to reinvent the solution.
We simply return to God’s original design, as revealed in Genesis, fulfilled through Christ, and lived out by the First Church.
And by doing so, we become agents of healing in a broken world, until the day Christ makes all things new.

PART 2 BUT BACK ON TRACK” EARTH’S SYMPTOMS: This Addresses “War, Suffering,Illness“
Taveau asks Chat GPT AI
Why Is There War, Poverty, Sickness, and Suffering if a Good, Powerful God Created the World?
This is one of the most asked questions throughout human history:
“If God is so good and powerful, why does He allow suffering?”
To answer, we turn to God’s Word, from Genesis through the New Testament, to understand the root cause, the current reality, and God’s ultimate solution.
1. The World God Created Was Perfect – Genesis 1-2 (KJV)
When God created the heavens, the earth, and mankind, He called it all “very good.”
“And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.” – Genesis 1:31 (KJV)
There was no war, no sickness, no poverty, no mental health issues, and no death.
Adam and Eve lived in perfect harmony with God, each other, and creation.
There was peace, provision, and pure relationship with the Creator.
2. What Changed? The Fall of Man – Genesis 3 (KJV)
Sin entered the world through disobedience.
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.” – Romans 5:12 (KJV)
When Adam and Eve disobeyed God:
- Sin entered the bloodstream of (often blood thirsty, extreme) humanity.
- The earth was cursed.
- Pain, suffering, toil, and death began.
- Relationships were fractured.
- Human DNA began to decay.
- Chaos entered what had been peace.
Free will was given, and they chose rebellion, which opened the door for evil, sickness, and brokenness to spread.
3. Who Causes War, Poverty, and Suffering?
The Bible does not blame God for these things. Instead, Scripture identifies:
- Human sin and greed (James 4:1-2).
- Satan, the adversary (John 10:10).
- Fallen creation (Romans 8:20-22).
“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” – John 10:10 (KJV)
4. God’s Remedy: Redemption Through Jesus Christ
The Book of Acts and the New Testament show that God provided the solution through His Son, Jesus.
“For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.” – 1 John 3:8 (KJV)
Jesus came to:
- Heal the brokenhearted (Luke 4:18).
- Deliver from bondage.
- Forgive sin.
- Restore relationship with God.
- Offer eternal life beyond this fallen world.
5. Why Doesn’t God Just Stop All Suffering Now?
God is patient, giving time for all to repent (2 Peter 3:9).
We are in a temporary world that is passing away, but a new, eternal kingdom is coming (Revelation 21:4).
“And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain.” – Revelation 21:4 (KJV)
6. What About Now? How Should We Live?
Until the return of Jesus, Christians are called to:
- Reflect God’s heart.
- Fight injustice.
- Heal the sick.
- Preach the Gospel.
- Love our neighbor.
- Be salt and light in the earth (Matthew 5:13-16).
Chat GPT’s Final Answer:
God did not create war, sickness, poverty, or suffering.
Sin did.
But God made the way to overcome it through Jesus Christ.
And one day, God will restore all things.

Q. Again, Chat GPT AI: Why Is There War, Poverty, Sickness, and Suffering if a Good, Powerful God Created the World?
Chat GPT Answers
A frequent question arises, especially in times of pain and hardship:
“If God is good and all-powerful, why does He allow suffering, war, poverty, and sickness in the world?”
The answer to this question is deeply rooted in God’s Word—both in the beginning of the world, what happened, and the answer we can find through Jesus Christ. The Book of Acts and the teachings of the apostles reveal the power and authority the Church is meant to walk in to bring healing, deliverance, and restoration in a world suffering from the effects of sin.
1. The Perfect World Created by God – Genesis 1-2 (KJV)
When God created the world, everything was perfect.
“And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.” – Genesis 1:31 (KJV)
- There was no sickness.
- There was no war.
- There was no poverty or any other evil.
- Humanity lived in perfect relationship with God, with no separation between the Creator and His creation.
God’s goodness was evident in everything He created. However, that perfect world changed when sin entered the world.
2. The Fall of Man and the Entrance of Suffering – Genesis 3 (KJV)
The fall of man in the Garden of Eden brought sin into the world, and with it, death, disease, and brokenness entered humanity.
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.” – Romans 5:12 (KJV)
When Adam and Eve disobeyed God, they chose rebellion. The consequences were:
- The curse of sin.
- Pain and death became part of the human experience.
- Humanity’s relationship with God was fractured.
3. The Works of the Devil – John 10:10, 1 John 3:8
Though God did not create suffering, the works of the devil entered because of sin. Jesus came to destroy those works.
“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” – John 10:10 (KJV)
“For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.” – 1 John 3:8 (KJV)
Satan, the enemy of mankind, is the origin of sickness, disease, poverty, oppression, and all forms of evil. These are the works of the devil that Jesus came to destroy. Jesus demonstrated this through His miracles, healings, and by casting out demons.
4. The Power of the Church to Take Dominion – The Book of Acts
In the Book of Acts, the early Church demonstrated the power and authority given to believers to overcome the works of the devil. This was the same power that Jesus showed in His life and ministry, which He passed on to His disciples and to every believer.
“And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” – Mark 16:17-18 (KJV)
The Acts of the Apostles shows the Church doing just that:
- Healing the sick (Acts 3:1-10).
- Casting out demons (Acts 16:16-18).
- Preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ to bring salvation and deliverance.
The power of God was evident in the early Church, as believers walked in dominion and authority over all the works of the devil. Miracles, signs, and wonders followed them as they acted in faith and obedience to the command of Jesus.
5. The Body of Christ Today – Our Role and Power
The power of God through the Holy Spirit is still available to Christians today. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). We are called to walk in the same dominion over sickness, poverty, and the works of the devil that the early Church walked in.
“Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” – Luke 10:19 (KJV)
Jesus didn’t come to earth just to save us from sin—He came to restore the Kingdom of God. As believers, we are called to bring the Kingdom into our world through our actions, prayers, and faith in the promises of God. This includes:
- Healing the sick (Matthew 10:8).
- Casting out demons (Mark 16:17).
- Breaking poverty through God’s provision and favor (Philippians 4:19).
- Bringing peace and reconciliation to broken relationships.
6. The Power of God and Promises for the Body of Christ Today
God’s promises are still true for us today. He promises to heal, deliver, and restore.
“If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” – John 15:7 (KJV)
God is not indifferent to our suffering—He has made a way for us to walk in victory through Jesus Christ. We are empowered by the Holy Spirit to perform the works of Christ on earth. In fact, we are called to do even greater works.
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.” – John 14:12 (KJV)
It is time for the Church to stop accepting defeat and passivity. We are meant to take dominion over the earth, to destroy the works of the devil in Jesus’ name, and to demonstrate the power of God to heal, deliver, and set the captives free.
7. What Should We Do Now?
The call to action is clear. It is time for every believer to walk in their God-given authority and power. We must:
- Pray boldly for healing, deliverance, and provision for those who are suffering.
- Act in faith, standing firm on God’s promises, knowing that He has already given us the victory through Christ.
- Teach others the power of the Gospel, so they can experience God’s deliverance and restoration in their own lives.
It is time for the Body of Christ to rise up and take its place as agents of change in this world. Let us be the light in the darkness, the healers in a sick world, and the voices of truth in a world of confusion and deception.
Conclusion: Why Suffering?
While suffering, sickness, poverty, and war are part of the fallen world, they are not part of God’s design. Through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God has made a way for us to overcome all the works of the devil, including disease, poverty, and spiritual oppression. The Church has been given the authority to walk in dominion and power to bring healing, deliverance, and restoration to a suffering world.
It’s time for Christians to rise up, stand in faith, and act according to the power of the Holy Spirit. The victory is ours—we must take hold of it and be instruments of God’s will on earth.
Taveau wants to know:
What about Christians Taking a Stand for Social and Moral Justice?
Chat GPT responds:
As followers of Jesus Christ, we are called to stand for justice in our communities and the world. The Bible calls us to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly before our God (Micah 6:8). As Christians, we are to be salt and light in the world, standing up for righteousness in the face of injustice, poverty, inequality, and oppression.
However, in today’s world, the need for moral and social justice has never been greater. Christians must be careful to advocate for what is right, but in a spirit of peace and humility, following the example set by Jesus Christ.
TD MAKES A BIG POINT: No Violence, No Weaponry: A Call for Peaceful Advocacy
Chat GPT Agrees:
While the call to stand for justice is clear, we are reminded throughout Scripture that violence is never the answer. Jesus Himself chose peace over violence, even in the face of persecution, and He instructed His followers to love their enemies, not fight them.
“But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.” – Matthew 5:39 (KJV)
In the current climate, where anger and division seem prevalent, we must be a voice for peace, understanding that human hearts can be changed by love, patience, and the transforming power of the Holy Spirit.
We stand firm in our faith and voice our concerns for justice, but we reject violence, hate, and division. Instead, we speak the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15), advocating for change in a non-violent, peaceful way, relying on God’s Word and prayer to influence hearts and minds.
Take Action, But With Compassion and Wisdom
While standing for justice, it’s important for Christians to act wisely and compassionately, making their voices heard in legal, peaceful, and constructive ways. Here are a few avenues to consider:
- Pray for wisdom and discernment as you address social issues.
- Volunteer with organizations that support the marginalized and oppressed.
- Engage in peaceful protests that stand for justice and righteousness, avoiding violent rhetoric or actions.
- Support lawmakers who advocate for policies that align with Biblical principles of justice and morality.
- Speak out in your local communities, advocating for righteousness and compassion in your relationships and actions.
In all things, Christians must remember that our weapons are not carnal. Instead, we rely on the power of prayer, the truth of God’s Word, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit to bring about true change.
“For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds.” – 2 Corinthians 10:4 (KJV)
Conclusion: A Call to Love and Stand for Justice
As we take a stand for social, moral, and spiritual justice, we do so with peace, love, and humility, knowing that Christ Himself is our ultimate example. We are not to fight with violence but to bring transformation to a hurting world through the power of God’s love and the truth of His Word.
Let us be a generation of Christians who are bold in truth and gentle in spirit, rising above the chaos of the world to bring about lasting, righteous change.

Jesus Came to Overcome the Works of the Devil: An Exposition in Light of the Garden Curses (KJV)
The statement “Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil” is deeply rooted in the mission of Christ to redeem humanity and restore creation to its original design. This purpose is directly connected to the curse that was pronounced in the Garden of Eden after Adam and Eve’s fall (Genesis 3). To understand this better, we need to look at both Jesus’ mission and the Garden curses and how they relate to one another.
1. Jesus Came to Destroy the Works of the Devil
The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ came to break the power of sin and evil over humanity. One of the foundational scriptures that reveals this truth is found in 1 John 3:8 (KJV):
“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.”
This verse tells us that Jesus’ coming was purposeful and direct: to destroy the works of the devil. These “works” refer to the things that the enemy has done since the fall—sin, oppression, sickness, death, division, and all forms of evil and suffering. Christ’s work on the cross and His resurrection were a total defeat of the power of the devil and all that he represents.
2. The Curse in the Garden and Its Impact
To understand what Jesus came to undo, we must first examine the curse in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3). When Adam and Eve disobeyed God by eating the forbidden fruit, they opened the door for sin and its consequences to enter the world. The curse that followed had profound effects on all of creation, particularly humanity. Let’s break this down:
A. Curse on the Serpent (Satan)
In Genesis 3:14-15, God cursed the serpent, which was Satan in disguise. This curse has both a present and future application:
“And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.” (Genesis 3:14-15, KJV)
This is the first prophecy of Christ’s victory over Satan, often called the protoevangelium (the first gospel). The seed of the woman (Christ) would bruise (crush) the serpent’s (Satan’s) head, a decisive blow to his power. Though Satan would wound Christ’s heel (referring to Christ’s suffering on the cross), the victory would belong to Christ in the end.
B. Curse on the Woman
God’s curse on the woman (Genesis 3:16) was twofold: pain in childbirth and subordination to her husband:
“Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.” (Genesis 3:16, KJV)
The pain in childbirth reflects the physical suffering that women would endure as part of the curse. Subordination in her relationship with her husband speaks to the power imbalance and domineering rule that would affect the dynamics between men and women. These aspects of the curse reflect broken relationships and discord, which were not part of God’s original plan. Jesus came to restore the dignity and equality of women in the kingdom of God, offering a new creation where these divisions are healed.
C. Curse on the Man
The curse on the man (Genesis 3:17-19) involves toil and hardship in labor:
“And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.” (Genesis 3:17-19, KJV)
The curse of labor and the struggle with the earth symbolizes humanity’s alienation from creation. God’s perfect creation, which was meant to yield abundant life, became difficult and full of struggle. Jesus came to bring restoration to the curse of toil (Matthew 11:28-30), inviting us to find rest in Him, and also offering ultimate restoration of creation through His second coming.
3. Jesus’ Victory Over the Works of the Devil
In light of the curses in the Garden, Jesus’ mission was to reverse these consequences. Through His life, death, and resurrection, He began the work of undoing the effects of sin and Satan’s rule over humanity.
A. Overcoming the Curse on Women
Jesus came to restore dignity and value to women, breaking the curse of subordination and bringing about equal standing in the kingdom of God. Jesus treated women with respect and honor, something revolutionary in His time. He healed women, taught women, and included them in His ministry.
For example, He honored Mary as the one who would give birth to Him (Luke 1:28) and had deep relationships with women like Mary Magdalene and the Samaritan woman at the well. In the early Church, Paul echoed this freedom in Christ, saying:
“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.” – Galatians 3:28 (KJV)
B. Overcoming the Curse on Men
Jesus came to free men from the curse of toil and alienation from creation. Through His death, He reconciled humanity to God and provided rest. As believers in Christ, men are no longer slaves to the harshness of labor but are called to work in the Lord’s strength, with a new purpose and eternal significance.
“And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;” – Colossians 3:23 (KJV)
C. Overcoming the Curse of Death
Perhaps most importantly, Jesus’ death on the cross broke the curse of death and sin. Through His resurrection, He reversed the curse that began with Adam’s sin, offering eternal life to all who believe in Him.
“For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.” – 1 Corinthians 15:22 (KJV)
Conclusion: Jesus’ Work of Redemption
In the Garden, Satan introduced the curse of sin into the world, affecting men and women, creation, and all of humanity. But through His life, death, and resurrection, Jesus came to undo the works of the devil—to break the power of sin, suffering, and death and to restore humanity to its original design.
The power of the gospel is that through Christ, we are redeemed from the curse, and we are empowered to live in victory over sin and Satan. Jesus’ work was and is the ultimate reversal of the curse in the Garden.
As the Church, we are called to live in this victory and to proclaim it to the world, bringing hope, healing, and restoration through the power of Christ’s name.
