Since the fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and subsequent judgment on their sin, there has never been a day of good news of joy for the world as the day Jesus was born. It was the most joyful news the world has ever heard. As a result of the sin of Adam and Eve, man had been separated from the presence of holy God. Sin separates man from God, because God is totally holy, He has purer eyes which cannot behold sin (Hab 1:13). That was why He drove Adam and Eve from the Garden of blessing and pleasures originally prepared for man at creation. And at the time of the judgment of the sins of Adam and Eve, man was cursed. Sin always brings a curse on the sinner (see Gen 3:17-19). In spite of the mess that Adam made, God did not give up on man because of His love. He promised to send a redeemer who would come to save man from sin so that man may be restored to God (see Gen. 3:15).
