Through one man's act changed the environment of how we act with God. Adams sin led to condemnation for all. When Adam could no longer enjoy his garden he understood what condemnation must be. Adam had a disregard for everything God had to offer. Adams desire was to be God. Through sin mankind was forever changed. Redeemed people are forever transformed because of Christ.

Mans problem is sin. The answer is Christ alone. There are two paths we can take, one leads to eternal death and the other leads to eternal life. Until we surrender to the truth of Christ we cannot and won't change our hearts. There is only one way to glory and that's the cross of Christ.

Adam and Eve had a relationship with God and it was good. But they wanted to be like God so they chose to break His law. Like Adam we desire to create our own world our own way. We desire to go against His laws and create our own truth. Yet we have the grace of Christ in spite of our sin.

As Christians we struggle with sin. Just as Adam chose to walk outside of the boundaries God had commanded, we too have the liberty to choose sin over His commandments. As the veil of darkness is removed from our eyes we have the joy to share our life with Christ. Adam chose the world over God. As believers we must put to death the things that separate us from God.

There is nothing acceptable we can find to do to attain Salvation. We are all sinners, none acceptable to God. Sin came through Adam but through Christ Salvation is offered to all of humanity.

Peace, love, and joy are all given to us after we accept Jesus Christ. Having joy in our hearts is a sign we are believers. As we live in the Spirit we should walk in the Spirit. Joy in the Lord comes through obedience in Jesus Christ. When we truly walk in the Spirit our joy will be full.

Men have exchanged the truth for a lie. When you suppress the truth of Jesus Christ everyone will find themselves acceptable. Men create their own gospel and truth. One where God doesn't chastise sin. Since no one is righteous God does allow a way of escape from wrath through Jesus Christ.

As we live our life as Christians we will face trials and tribulations. We are to stay anchored by committing ourselves to Christ. The message of the cross is the blood covering of Jesus Christ. Christ loved us so much that He died for us in spite of our sins. We must humbly accept this message and commit our life to Jesus.

What's the difference between the natural man and the saved man- At the end of life the saved man does not regret his relationship and adherence to the Lord. The natural man is full of regrets. The Holy Spirit teaches Christians to love God. We love the providential plan of God. The Holy Spirit has poured out His love on the things of this earth to give us comfort. In 1 John 7 Paul says,- I have learned to be content in all things. - The saved man can see why God puts us through trials and is able to celebrate them.

As we stand up for righteousness we will suffer persecution. In the book of James it tells us that a true believer does not turn from his faith when presented with persecution. If we have a steadfastness through our tribulations we prove our loyalty to Christ is real. We will exhibit more of His glory in this life leading us to a greater hope in our eternal life with God.
