We continued our study of the book of Genesis today as we ready chapter 3, verses 1 through 24. We then had groups of 2 to 4 split up and look for things on a specific topic from that chapter. Our two topics were sin and salvation. Here are things I found out about sin in this chapter:
1. Sin sometimes starts with changing/adding to God's commands
2. Sin sometimes is because we are deceived into doing it
3. Sin starts with desire, when something looks good to us
4. Sin blinds us to what is really going on
5. We make excuses to be able to commit sin
6. Sin brings about shame, guilt, and fear
7. Sin causes us to hide from each other
8. When we sin, we tend to try to get others to sin too, so we don't feel as bad
9. Sin sometimes is because of choice, we know it is wrong, but still do it
10. Sin breaks our relationship with God, causing us to hide form him
11. When we sin, we tend to try and pass the blame
12. Sin brings about a curse
13. Sin brought about pain, harsh rulership, toil, weeds, and death
Here are the things that I found about salvation in the chapter:
1. When we sin, God seeks us out
2. In order for salvation, sin must be confronted
3. Salation by the seed of a woman is prophesied
4. Salvation was part of God's plan from the point sin entered the world
5. God does what he can to cover sin
6. Death must occur to cover sin.
As a Genesis Gob this week you were asked to look into your life and repent of any sin that was there so that you could be forgiven.
I give this morning: A
