THE RESULTS OF SIN

1.   Gives us a conscience – Gen 3v10 – As soon as the parents of the human race sinned they became conscious of the fact that they were naked, and they tried to hide from God

      2.   Imposes the penalty of death – Adam became spiritually dead the moment he
           sinned. By this we mean that he became separated from God and banished
           from God’s presence. He also became subject to physical death.
           Although he did not die immediately his body was doomed to die.                            

3.   Ensures that all are condemned – Romans 5v12-18 – Adam’s sinful nature was passed on to all the human race. Every child born of sinful parents is a sinner by birth.       Thus Adam’s oldest son Cain was a murderer. Because all men are born sinners they are all dead spiritually and are all doomed to die physically some day.

4.   Brought God’s curse upon all creation – Gen 3v14-19 – Man’s sin brought God’s curse upon all creation. Thorns and thistles for instance are an evidence of this. Other evidences are mentioned in the Bible reference shown. Sin needs no proof as long as we have prisons hospitals and funerals. Tears sickness sorrow pain and death are some of the results of sin.
