Broken Under The Tree of Temptation: Genesis 3:1-10
Broken Under The Tree of Temptation: Genesis 3:1-10Senior Pastor Alex Kennedy"We aren't sinners because we sin. We sin because we're sinners." This morning we looked at "what went wrong" regarding humanity, and the answer is sin.
In Gen 3:1, the serpent comes to Eve and says, "Did God actually say...". In this statement, the serpent begins with the power of doubt. His question removes the positive statement made by God in Gen 2:16-17. When we doubt someone's word, we doubt them as a credible source.
Eve replies to the serpent by adding to God's words in v3, "neither shall you touch it." God never said this, but Eve has now distorted the Truth. All sin is a perversion of something good.
In verse 4, the serpent shows his true character by moving from a doubt to a lie when he says, "You will not surely die". Satan is a liar from the beginning (John 8:44), and his lie is that we can sin and get away with it (no consequences). God's Word clearly shows us that the penalty for sin is death. (Gen 2:17)
When Eve eats of the fruit, we see that Adam is right there with her. He was close enough to hear and understand, but he passively allowed it and then ate the fruit himself.To read more, go to: https://carmelbaptist.org/?post_type=carmel-sermon&p=4552&preview=true
