In Genesis, I see earth created;
In Revelation, I see it passing away.
In Genesis, sun and moon appear;
In Revelation, I read they have no need of sun or moon.
In Genesis, there is the marriage of the first Adam;
In Revelation, there is the marriage of the Lamb, the last Adam.
In Genesis, there is the first appearance of the great enemy, Satan;
In Revelation, there is his final doom.
In Genesis, there is the inauguration of sorrow and suffering; you hear the first sob, you see the first tear.
In Revelation, there is no more sorrow, no more pain, and all tears wiped away.
In Genesis, we hear the curse proclaimed because of sin;
In Revelation, we read, “There shall be no more curse.”
