I believe that God created me and all that exists, and that He gave me my body and soul, eyes, ears, and all my members, my mind and all my abilities.

Opening Discussion Since God knows everything and He hates sin, why would He let Satan tempt Adam and Eve into sin and let all mankind fall? Did God want us to be sinful?

How Sin Entered the World God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment. 2 Peter 2:4

How Sin Entered the World Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings. 1 Peter 5:8,9

How Sin Entered the World Some angels disobeyed God and now live as demons under the leadership of the devil (“liar”), or Satan (“enemy”).

How Sin Entered the World The Fall into Sin Genesis 3:1-15,20-24

How Sin Entered the World The devil… tempted Adam and Eve to disobey God Adam and Eve… deliberately disobeyed and lost God’s image

The Results of Sin Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.” John 3:5,6

The Results of Sin When God created man, he made him in the likeness of God. He created them male and female and blessed them. And when they were created, he called them “man.” When Adam had lived 130 years, he had a son in his own likeness, in his own image; and he named him Seth. Genesis 5:1-3

The Results of Sin We are all born in a sinful condition (inherited sin)

The Results of Sin “For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.” Matthew 15:19

The Results of Sin “For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.” Matthew 15:19

The Results of Sin 2. Our sinful condition leads to sinful words and actions (actual sin)

The Results of Sin Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned. Romans 5:12

The Results of Sin For the wages of sin is death… Romans 6:23a

The Results of Sin 3. We deserve God’s punishment and eternal death

The Results of Sin To the woman He said, “I will greatly increase your pains in childbearing; with pain you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.” To Adam He said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat of it,’ cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return.” Genesis 3:16-19

Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.” To Adam He said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat of it,’ cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return.” Genesis 3:16-19

The Results of Sin 4. We suffer pain and sorrow as the consequence of sin

The Results of Sin The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Romans 8:19-22

Agree or Disagree? God gave Adam and Eve the command not to eat of the one fruit because they needed a way to show God gratitude for all His blessings. Evil has always existed. It was the devil’s fault that Adam and Eve fell into sin. With much effort human beings can make this world perfect again.

Discussion Question #1 Why did Satan and so many other angels rebel against God?

Discussion Question #2 If all people are totally depraved and unable to please God from birth, how do even unbelievers do so many helpful and beneficial things for others?

Discussion Question #3 If we are born dead in sin and unable to reconcile ourselves to God, how is God just in holding us accountable for our sinfulness?

Discussion Question #4 I've done some terrible things in my life. I'm afraid I'm not good enough to go to heaven. What must I do to have my sins forgiven and to be saved?

Memory Treasure God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 Corinthians 5:21

First Article of the Apostles’ Creed I believe in God the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth. What does this mean? I believe that God created me and all that exists, and that He gave me my body and soul, eyes, ears, and all my members, my mind and all my abilities. And I believe that God still preserves my by richly and daily providing clothing and shoes, food and drink, property and home, spouse and children, land, cattle, and all I own, and all I need to keep my body and life...

First Article of the Apostles’ Creed God also preserves me by defending me against all danger, guarding and protecting me from all evil. All this God does only because He is my good and merciful Father in heaven, and not because I have earned or deserved it. For all this I ought to thank and praise, to serve and obey Him. This is most certainly true.

Closing Prayer Lord our strength, the battle of good and evil rages within and around us, and our ancient foe tempts us with his deceits and empty promises. Keep us steadfast in Your Word, and when we fall, raise us up again and restore us through Your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
