In this lecture we will discuss Sin in 4 parts: origin, consequences, redemption, and repentance
By the end of the lecture you will be able to clearly explain these 4 pieces and understand the redemptive work of Christ.
I. The Origin of Sin:
The concept of sin lies at the very core of theological doctrine, tracing its origins back to the disobedience exhibited by the first human couple, Adam and Eve. As recounted in the Book of Genesis, their rebellion against the divine commandment marked a pivotal moment in human history, unleashing the introduction of sin into the world.
Scripture: Genesis 3:6 - "So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate."
This act of defiance shattered the once perfect harmony that existed between humanity and its Creator, God, forever altering the course of human existence. The consequences of their transgression reverberated throughout all generations, leading to a fractured relationship between humankind and the divine. It is within this theological framework that the doctrine of sin takes shape, exploring the nature, consequences, and means of redemption for humanity in its fallen state. The narrative of Adam and Eve serves as a cornerstone for understanding the theological significance of sin, reminding believers of the inherent brokenness within the world and the need for redemption and reconciliation with God.

We're speaking life into our minds and hearts, reinforcing the unshakable truth of God's love, power, and provision. It's like flexing our faith muscles and standing strong!
"Faith is more than just an abstract concept—it's an active force. To give life to our beliefs, we must manifest them through our actions. 'Faith In Action' is about aligning what we do with what we believe in our hearts to be true and possible."
"First and foremost, identify your Faith Anchor Points—these are your core beliefs that hold your faith steady. Ask yourself, what truths resonate with me deeply? Whether it's the belief in your abilities, the power of positivity, or the importance of compassion, write these down. These anchor points are your foundation as we move forward."
"With your Faith Anchor Points in place, it's time to set Intentional Goals. What do you aspire to achieve with the strength of your faith? Whether it's personal growth, overcoming a challenge, or contributing to your community, goal setting gives your faith a direction and purpose."
"Next, create an Action Plan. Break down your Intentional Goals into tangible steps. For example, if one of your goals is to become more patient, an action step could be practicing mindfulness for 5 minutes each morning. This creates a daily habit that embodies the essence of your faith."
"Faith grows when tested. So, embrace Opportunities for Growth. Seek out moments that challenge your faith because it's within those moments that you'll find your true strength. A tip here is to keep a journal where you note down these experiences and reflect on how you've navigated them."
"Finally, Reflect and Adjust. Periodically check in with yourself. Are your actions in alignment with your beliefs? If not, what needs to change? This step is crucial in ensuring that your faith doesn't just stay in motion, but also evolves and strengthens."
