Belgic Confession, Article 17

Of the recovery of fallen Man.

We believe that our most gracious God, in his admirable wisdom and goodness, seeing that man had thus thrown himself into temporal and spiritual death, and made himself wholly miserable, was pleased to seek and comfort him, when he trembling fled from His presence, promising him that he would give his Son, who should be made of a woman, to bruise the head of the serpent , and would make him happy.
