Two Figures in the Forest

Vincent Willem van Gogh was a Dutch painter, one of the main exponents of post-impressionism

Hello great steemians, today i am very happy to be part of this wonderful contest tagged "Two Figures in the Forest". My imagination about the above images can be seen below.

The two images represent

1. An Angel (Lucifer)
2. Man

The two images you see in the forest represent the lost soul of human and the spirit of Lucifer. this occurs when man felled from the grace of God!

At the beginning, God created them male and female and this image in the forest is the image created by God. This image was given the power to dominate the earth but they felled short of the power which was handed over to them because of Simple Instruction Neglected(SIN).

How the Figures Found themselves in the Forest

Man was created and place very high above angels because he was made in the image of God and Lucifer was just a messenger between God and man from heaven to earth.

But Lucifer became so jealous about man because of the beautiful garden which man was placed at creation.

But before now, God has given man divine instructions about the tree of knowledge of good and evil 🐍 and the tree of life. This two trees in the garden represent the two figures in the forest.

Because of the pride of Lucifer in Heaven, God had to send him down to the earth and the power he had was not collected, so he came into the garden inform of man but as a spirit because he was an angel, this act was to deceive the woman. But for him to start his operations, Lucifer in the garden as a spirit man had to enter the serpent and speaks to the woman in a very soft way by telling her about the two images placed in the garden. Note, these images 1 represents Lucifer (spirit being) while the 2nd represent the soul of man.

The soul of man was deceived by the spirit of Lucifer through the serpent to disobey God! and because of this, God was very angry with the Soul and the spirit which represent the two figures in the forest.

When you look at the images in the forest, you will noticed that one of it looked burnt, this is the spirit of Lucifer that deceived the soul of man. So God had to put him into evaluating fire 🔥, that is the reason you see the image appearing black in the forest. While the Soul of man was driven out of the garden too to fend for himself.

The forest represent the earth, while the grasses 🌱 represents fade riches offered by the Lucifer the spirit man. Immediately the spirit and the soul were sent away from the garden, Lucifer made provisions of fade riches to deceive he soul of man for ever and went in search of the lost soul, and brought him into the forest.

The soul of man felt that he has gotten back what he lost in time pass but he never knew that the spirit of Lucifer was deceitful until when everything fade away. Note, fading away represent the death of the Soul.

Conclusion

The story above has just tell us that the devil came to still and to destroy. At first he deceived the soul of man through the Serpent and secondly, he made provisions of fade riches to win the soul to death.

However, remember the two figures in the forest, which represent an Angel and Man.

Also note that the two images represent the Spirit and the soul in the garden, which represents the tree of knowledge of good and evil and the tree of life.

The spirit went forth to make fade riches which he uses to deceived the soul of man to death.
