Thesis: Our sin is far deeper and has far greater consequences than we feared, but God ofers a salvation far more powerful than we ever dreamed to hope. To properly understand our need for God, we need to understand the nature of our separation from Him—a separation rooted in the sinful nature we inherited from Adam and daily act out through a variety of sinful acts. It is this bondage that Christ ofers to forgive us for and free us from.
I. The Fall:
· Adam & Eve’s sin:
1) Sought to redefine the basis for knowledge: gave a different answer to the question, “What is true?”
2) Sought to redefine the basis for moral standards: gave a different answer to the question, “What is right?”
