An Ancient Prophecy That Affects You - HOW ARE WE BENEFITING FROM THIS PROPHECY?

 A Sister in Bavaria named Ursula says that understanding Genesis 3:15 helped to convince her that the Bible is inspired of God. She saw how all the other prophecies are connected to this prophecy, and that deeply impressed her. She also says: "I was touched when I learned that Jehovah took actionimmediately so that mankind would not be left without hope."

Jessica from Micronesia says: "I can still remember how I felt when I first relized that I had truly found the truth! The prophecy  recorde at Genesis 3:15 was being fulfilled. It has helped me to remember that what we are experiencing  is not the real life. This prophecy has also strenthened ny belief  that serving Jehovah results in the best possible life I can hsave now snd sn even better life in the future." 

As we have seen, Genesis 3:15 is now undergoing fulfillment.  The offspring of the woman and the offspring of the serpent have been clearly identified. Jesus, the primary part of the offsprung of the woman, recovered from his heel wound and is now a glorious, immortal King. The selection of those  making up the secondary part of the offspring is nearing completion, Because the first part of the prophecy has been fulfilled, we have every reason to be confident that the final part, the crushing of the serpent's head, will also come true, What a relief it will be for faithful mankind when Satan comes to his end! Until then, do not give up. Our God is trustworth. Through the offspring of the woman, he will bring countless blessins to  "all the nations of the earth." - GENESIS 22:18.
