The original sin was disobedience. Satan had rebelled against God, and deceived Adam and Eve into disobeying God. From that day until now, men have been deciding for themselves what is right and what is wrong, instead of believing God. As long as man was obedient to God, sin was contained. The Bible tells us that obedience is greater than sacrifice. If man had been obedient to God from the beginning, there would be no need for sacrifice… There would have been no need for God to sacrifice His Son to redeem us from the consequences of our disobedience. ~Andy |
