Synopsis: After God graciously gave mankind a fresh start on earth with a covenant of peace, sin clung to Noah and his descendants. From Noah's sons Shem, Ham and Japheth the earth was repopulated. Better than knowing our earthly lineage is knowing God as our Father who is able to deliver us from temptation, sin and death.

When Adam sinned the serpent, all people and the earth were subject to the curse of sin that brought death. Though sin could not be undone and the permanent consequences dire, God made a promise of new life through the Seed who was later revealed as Jesus Christ. By His death and resurrection Jesus is the Way to forgiveness, eternal life and freedom from the curse of sin for all who believe in Him.

Though God created the world good and man in His own image, Adam fell into sin by disobedience to God's command--and the rest of mankind with him. The wicked tactics of Satan, the deceitfulness of sin that cuts us off from God, and the desires of man reveal only God is righteous and good.
