What were God's first words to the first sinners? First, we must come to terms with that ugly little word: "sinner." Who would want to wear THAT name tag? The inescapable problem lies in the fact that this is just how the gospel describes all of humanity. All are descendants of Adam and all have inherited Adam's sin. Sin is in the family lineage of all people.

Once we bow to God's offer of salvation from sin, we will gladly label ourselves "sinners." The gospel is custom-made for sinners who will admit to being just that. We are free to tell the truth. The answer lies in the fact that God already knows all about us. What were God's first words to the first sinners? We will take a close look at what God said and we will learn just how much God cares. And he still cares today.
