They rejected God’s rule and thus corrupted the entire human race with their disobedience. Adam, along with his wife, sinned when they ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 3:6). Adam followed his wife and fell into sin also.Īdam didn’t obey God. He tempted Eve to eat from the forbidden tree, and she did. Then Satan, the original rebel, took the form of a serpent and entered the garden. God said, “ You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die” (Genesis 2:16–17). In that garden, he gave the man permission to eat from every tree but commanded him not to eat from one of those trees. How starkly contrasted to our savior Jesus Christ, who came not to be ministered unto, but to minister and to give his life a ransom for sinners (Mark 10:45 1 Timothy 2:6).īefore Satan’s fall, God had placed our first parents, Adam and Eve, in a beautiful and perfect garden of Eden. He did not want to serve he wanted to be served he, as a creature, wanted to be worshipped. As an angel, he was so beautiful, wise, and powerful that he began to covet God’s position and authority. He was an elevated angel but fell from his lofty height. We catch a glimpse of Satan’s fall in the following passages, In Ezekiel 28:14–15, Satan is judged as an exalted being when iniquity (sin) was found in him. The serpent tempted Eve in Genesis 3, but the devil’s fall from grace set the stage for humankind’s later fall in the garden. Though this was the first human sin, it is not the first recorded sin in Scripture. When Christians think of the first sin, they usually think of Adam and Eve. Those who sin are deemed worthy of a just punishment by God, death and hell (Romans 3:23). Because of God’s pure moral character, God imposed a strict sentence on anyone who sins. Sin is why we see so much death, destruction, catastrophe, hatred, and negativity in the world. It especially affects your relationship with a holy God (Isaiah 59:2). For instance, when you steal something from a store, it affects the store’s profitability, your conscience, and God’s order in the universe. In other words, bad things happen when people sin. There are many negative consequences to sin. Whenever we do something that God tells us not to do-like lying to a friend, cheating on our spouse, or stealing something-it’s wrong. God tells us what is right and what is wrong in his Word, the Bible. From apo and haireomai to remove.Sin is breaking God’s law (1 John 3:4). Strong's 129: Blood, literally, figuratively or specially by implication, bloodshed, also kindred. Strong's 102: Of persons: incapable of things: impossible either the inability, or that which is impossible. A primary particle properly, assigning a reason. John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. Hosea 14:2 Take with you words, and turn to the LORD: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips. Hebrews 10:11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: Psalm 50:8-12 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt offerings, to have been continually before me… Hebrews 9:9,13 Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience … Hebrews 10:8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein which are offered by the law (The blood of bulls and goats cannot take away sins.)įor it is impossible for blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.įor the blood of bulls and goats cannot take away sins.
