Genesis: Fig Leaves or Faith - Genesis 3:20-24 - Pastor Jim West


Listen Later

This sermon explores Genesis chapter 3, focusing on Adam and Eve's response to God's judgment, God's provision, and their banishment from the Garden of Eden. The speaker highlights Adam's act of faith in naming Eve "life" after hearing God's promise of a coming deliverer. The sermon then emphasizes God's "costly grace" in providing animal skin coverings, contrasting them with humanity's inadequate attempts at self-covering through good works or religious duties, and foreshadowing the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus. Finally, the text explains the merciful banishment from the Garden, preventing Adam and Eve from an eternal life of corruption and setting the stage for God's plan of redemption through Christ.
