The Alpha and the Omega – Part 5: The Covenant

Once Adam and Eve had disobeyed God and fallen into original sin, God now had a fallen world with which to work. Adam and Eve were indeed fruitful, and they did multiply, Eve giving birth to Cain and Abel.

But the fallen world and original sin did not waste any time. In the fourth chapter of Genesis, in verse seven, God tells Cain that sin is waiting “at the door”, and by the next verse, the world had recorded its first murder.

From there, the story gets worse. The world came to be so steeped in sin that God decided to wash it all away in the Great Flood, sparing only Noah and his family, the only righteous people on earth. And even after that, humanity was corrupt and full of sin. Our ancestors tried to reach the heavens on their own strength and built the Tower of Babel. It failed.

It was God’s original plan and purpose for creation to have a family of His own. And so, God took the initiative and entered into a covenant with the people He had made. He promised to be their God, to bless them, to love them and give them good gifts. In return, they would be His people and would keep His commandments. But the people continued to fail and break the covenant.

God called Abraham to bring the people to the land of Canaan. When famine struck the land, the people went down to Egypt and settled there. God entered into a covenant with Abraham, promising that his descendants would one day inherit the land.

God revealed Himself to His people through His miraculous acts. When the people cried out to God to release them from Pharaoh, God sent the ten plagues to persuade Pharaoh to let the people go. Finally, God called Moses to lead the people to The Promised Land. God parted the Red Sea so that Moses and the people could pass through, but when Pharaoh’s army tried to pass through, God let the sea fall back on them.

God gave the Law and the Prophets to call His people to Himself. He gave the Law for our protection, to keep us from harm, especially to each other. God sent the prophets to call His people back to Himself, back to the covenant, when they had strayed from Him.

All along, God was preparing the world for the coming of His Son Jesus Christ. The Law and the Covenant are fulfilled in Him, through His atoning death on the cross. The Prophets foretold His coming of the Messiah.

From the Christian perspective, we can see a prophetic foretelling of God becoming man almost from the very beginning. In Genesis chapter three, we are told that Adam and Eve “heard the sound of the Lord God walking about in the garden at the breezy time of day”. God described in such anthropomorphic terms—walking in the garden—is a sign of incarnation.

As soon as humanity had fallen, God’s plan of redemption commenced and developed until Jesus Himself said, “It is finished”. God’s Covenant with His beloved children stands for all eternity.

El Alfa y el Omega – 5ª Parte: El Pacto Una vez que Adán y Eva habían desobedecido a Dios y caído en el pecado original, Dios ahora tenía un mundo caído con el cual trabajar. Adán y Eva fueron realmente fructíferos, y se multiplicaron, Eva dio a luz a Caín y Abel.

Pero el mundo caído y el pecado original no perdieron el tiempo. En el cuarto capítulo del Génesis, en el versículo siete, Dios le dice a Caín, “a la puerta está el pecado acechando como fiera", y en el siguiente versículo, el mundo había registrado el primer asesinato.

A partir de ahí, la historia empeora. El mundo llegó a estar tan inmerso en el pecado que Dios decidió lavarlo todo en el Gran Diluvio, salvando solo a Noé y su familia, las únicas personas justas en la tierra. E incluso después de eso, la humanidad era corrupta y estaba llena de pecado. Nuestros antepasados intentaron alcanzar los cielos con su propia fuerza y construyeron la Torre de Babel. Fallaron.

El plan y el propósito original de Dios para la creación era tener una familia propia. Y así, Dios tomó la iniciativa y entró en un pacto con las personas que había hecho. Prometió ser su Dios, bendecirlos, amarlos y darles buenos regalos. A cambio, serían su pueblo y guardarían sus mandamientos. Pero la gente continuó fallando y rompiendo el pacto.

Dios llamó a Abraham para que trajera al pueblo a la tierra de Canaán. Cuando la hambruna golpeó la tierra, la gente bajó a Egipto y se estableció allí. Dios hizo un pacto con Abraham, prometiendo que sus descendientes algún día heredarían la tierra prometida.

Dios se reveló a su pueblo a través de sus actos milagrosos. Cuando la gente clamó a Dios para liberarlos del Faraón, Dios envió las diez plagas para persuadir al Faraón de que dejara ir a su pueblo. Finalmente, Dios llamó a Moisés para guiar a la gente a La Tierra Prometida. Dios separó el Mar Rojo para que Moisés y el pueblo pudieran pasar, pero cuando el ejército del Faraón intentó pasar, Dios dejó que el mar cayera sobre ellos.

Dios dio la ley y los profetas para llamar a su pueblo a sí mismo. Dio la Ley para nuestra protección, para evitar daños, especialmente entre nosotros. Dios envió a los profetas a llamar a su pueblo de regreso a sí mismo, de regreso al pacto, cuando se habían alejado de Él.

Todo el tiempo, Dios estaba preparando al mundo para la venida de su Hijo Jesucristo. La Ley y el Pacto se cumplen en Él, a través de Su muerte expiatoria en la Cruz. Los profetas predijeron la venida del Mesías.

Desde la perspectiva cristiana, podemos ver una predicción profética de Dios convirtiéndose en hombre casi desde el principio. En el Génesis capítulo tres, se nos dice que Adán y Eva "escucharon el sonido del Señor Dios caminando por el jardín a la hora de la brisa". Dios descrito en tales términos antropomórficos, caminando en el jardín, es un signo de personificación divina.

Tan pronto como la humanidad había caído, el plan de redención de Dios comenzó y se desarrolló hasta que Jesús mismo dijo: "Todo está cumplido". El pacto de Dios con sus amados hijos representa toda la eternidad. Continuará . . .

BooksToBorrow from the Notre Dame Parish Library are available in the narthex of the church, near the bell tower door. About the Holy Spirit, by Francisca Javiera del Valle, is a devotion for the first ten days before Pentecost. It was first published in Spanish in 1930 and written by a poor dressmaker who died in 1930. The author experienced constant mystical phenomena in her spiritual life; ecstasies, visions, mystical conversations and raptures. Her sorrow was that the Holy Spirit is not known by us or even to those who serve and are consecrated to Him. Have you thought lately about how much we ought to love the Holy Spirit because He is the motivator of our existence and the cause of our having been created to enjoy for eternity the same joys as God himself? This book is divided into 10 sections or days. Each day has the same Act of Contrition, Opening Prayer, Litany of the Holy Spirit, and Concluding prayer while the “Consideration” and “Offering” change from day to day. Come Holy and Divine Spirit! Come as light and enlighten us. Come as fire and set all hearts aflame that they burn with divine love. Come make all men know you that they may all know and love the One true God, for you are the only thing worth loving. Come as a tongue and teach us to praise God unceasingly. Come as a cloud and enfold us in all your protection and aid. Come as plentiful rain and quench in us all the fires of our passions. Come as the sun and as soft rays of light to warm us. God has three divine persons in him and all three have and possess the same wisdom, the same goodness, the same love, the same mercy, the same power and the same justice. “This God, thrice holy, is by nature the source of all happiness and joy, all blessedness and greatness, all power and glory. He alone is unique and without beginning. Come, O Holy and divine Spirit, come down to earth and enlighten the minds of all men. I assure you, O Lord, that with the clarity and beauty of your light, many minds will come to know, love, and serve you”. This book reviewed by Parishioner Deborah Harris
