This Sunday we’re in Genesis chapter 3 – the Fall. The world looks upon this as a fable. To us who believe it, and know it to be true, it is history. And it’s foundational to our faith and to our world view. The doctrine of Sin and the atomic fall-out of the Fall is critical to our understanding of life in this world. More than that, it is critical to an understanding of our own hearts and any hope we have for a solution. As much as we like to talk about forgiveness, we can’t really understand forgiveness without understanding transgression. Nor can we experience forgiveness without acknowledging our sin. So, this is history but not only history. This is our history, and we need to personally own it as our own before there can be any hope of forgiveness and restoration.
