Sin

Romans 3:23; Genesis 3:2-7

Since the Garden of Eden, sin has existed on the earth. This was not God’s design for humanity.  He wanted perfection for us.  Adam and Eve were free to eat from any tree, except the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.  God wanted to protect us.  Adam and Eve broke that one rule and mankind has been dealing with sin and shame since then.  Just like sin separated Adam and Eve from God in the garden, since can separate us from God. 


Questions for further thought:
1. Do you have something keeping you from a close relationship with God?

2. Is there someone you can talk to about this?   


​Challenge: Admitting to yourself can be the first step to moving from shame to healing.
