How has mankind been

affected by sin?

Physically—Disease and death were introduced

into this world as a direct consequence of

man’s sin

Gen 2:17 “But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it:

for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die”

Rom 5:12 “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and

so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:”

Geophysically—Many features of the Earth’s surface that allow for such tragedies as earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, violent

thunderstorms, etc. can be traced directly to the Great Flood

of Noah’s day

Gen 6:12-13 “And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth. And God said unto

Noah, The end of all flesh…

Gen 6:12-13 …is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them

with the earth”

Culturally—communication problems that man

experiences, (languages) are a result of sins.

Gen 11:1-9 “And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. And it

came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that

they found a plain in the…

Gen 11:1-9 …land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. And

they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone…

Gen 11:1-9 …and slime had they for morter. And they

said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and

let us make us a name…

Gen 11:1-9 …lest we be scattered abroad upon the

face of the whole earth. And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded…

Gen 11:1-9 …And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one

language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them…

Gen 11:1-9 …which they have imagined to do. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's

speech. So the LORD…

Gen 11:1-9 …scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they

left off to build the city. Therefore is the name of it

called Babel; because the…

Gen 11:1-9 …LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all

the earth”

Psychologically—Man generally is without the peace

of mind for which his heart longs.

Isaiah 59:8 “The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings:

they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth

therein shall not know peace”

Isaiah 57:21 “There is no peace, saith my God, to

the wicked”

Spiritually—By sinning, man

separates himself from God.

Isaiah 59:2 “But your iniquities have separated

between you and your God, and your sins have hid his

face from you, that he will not hear”

Matt 23:33 “Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the

damnation of hell?”

Rev 21:8 “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable,

and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all

liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second

death”

Rev 22:18-19 “For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of

this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God

shall add unto him the…

Rev 22:18-19 …plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away

from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take

away his part out of the…

Rev 22:18-19 …book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are

written in this book”

Man’s sin results in an eternal separation from God unless

remedied.

Has God provided such a remedy?

Yes, He has.

John 6:29 “Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on

him whom he hath sent”

Rom 5:6-8 “For when we were yet without strength, in due

time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even…”

Rom 5:6-8 “…dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we

were yet sinners, Christ died for us”

1 John 4:9-10 “In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that

we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but

that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins”

Rev 22:17 “And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And

let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is

athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of

life freely”

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his

only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have

everlasting life”

Rom 8:32 “He that spared not his own Son, but delivered

him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give

us all things?”

God provided the remedy through

Jesus Christ

Phil 2:5-8 “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery

to be equal with God: But made himself of no

reputation, and took upon…”

Phil 2:5-8 “…him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being

found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the

death of the cross”

God offered the remedy to Paul.

Gal 2:20 “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet

not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the

flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave

himself for me”

Phil 3:7-8 “But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things

but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of

all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ”

John 14:21 “He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me:

and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest

myself to him”

John 14:23 “Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man

love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come

unto him, and make our abode with him”

John 15:10 “If ye keep my commandments, ye shall

abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's

commandments, and abide in his love”

Matt 7:13-14 “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and

broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be

which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way,

which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it”

All have been affected by sin.Physically

GeophysicallyCulturally

PsychologicallySpiritually

1 Tim 2:4 “Who will have all men to be saved, and

to come unto the knowledge of the truth”

2 Pet 3:9 “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some

men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish,

but that all should come to repentance”

1 John 1:5-6 “This then is the message which we have heard of

him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness

at all. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the

truth”

God offers the remedy to you.

1 John 5:13 “These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the

Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God”

Matt 10:32 “Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my

Father which is in heaven”

Acts 8:22 “Repent therefore of this thy

wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the

thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee”

Mark 16:16 “He that believeth and is baptized

shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall

be damned”
