3. The First Sin
The First Sin |
The first sin in the history of mankind had been the one of the first two people – Adam and Eve – as they commited an act that transgressed the divine command. For this reason they had to pay with a dying life, that will sooner or later come to an end. The Scripture tells us: ”5 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.” (Genesis 5.5) This had happened to him ”23 for – as it is written – the consequence of the sin or the wages of sin is death.” (Romans 6.23) |
