How does God respond to sin? When Adam and Eve disobeyed God, God's response tells us everything we need to know about how God responds to sin in our lives personally and also how He ultimately deals with sin for good. 

God responds by 1) giving us grace and space to recognize our wrong and repent, 2) He allows consequences to sin in order to teach us the ultimate consequence of Hell, 3) He reminds us that sin deserves death, and 4) He atones for our sin, enabling us to get back to paradise with God through Jesus Christ.
