Sin Enters Humanity

Welcome to the GOSPEL JOURNEY. This week we'll be working through the sentence: Our sin separates us from God.. These posts are to help you engage with the central message of the Bible. Comment. Question. Agree. Disagree. Either way, let us know what you think.

Sin enters humanity.

Last week we worked through the concept that God created us to be with Him. That sounds so beautiful, but isn't something we see when we look at the news, at those around us, or even inside our heart. The Bible explains that God created a perfect paradise for us, but that perfection was quickly destroyed. Take a look at the account in Genesis 3:1-21 and answer these questions:

1. Did the serpent accurately quote God?
2. Did Eve accurately quote God?
3. By what does the serpent tempt Eve? What does he say will happen?
4. What happened as soon as Adam and Eve sinned?
5. What was their response when they realized they sinned?
6. What did God say would happen now that sin had entered the earth?
7. What did God do for Adam and Eve?

One law. That's what Adam and Eve were given. And they broke it. That sin had immediate consequences that they were aware of, but even had some that God had to tell them happened. But before you get all angry at Adam and Eve, let's be honest...we would have done it too.
