30
Q

Explain how sin grows from a single choice to a family issue to a murder rap to an international incident to the destruction of the world. Use the examples from sin stories we have studied, then add current events in the world that show how sin continues to spread and destroy.

A

In The Fall of Man, the story of the first sin is told about Adam and Eve. They make the choice to disobey God and eat the fruit from the tree that they weren’t supposed. Their sin grows bigger when they fear God, so they hide; their sin grows even more when they blame each other. In the story of Cain and Abel, Abel is liked better by God. Cain is jealous of Abel, so he kills his brother. In the story of the Tower of Babel, the people try to build a tower high enough to be able to reach and to be as good as God. God punishes them by making them all speak different languages so that they can’t understand each other. During the time of Noah, the people were sinning so God warned Noah and his family. Noah builds the ark to save two of every animal and his family. Through the flood, God destroys the Earth, Noah and his family stay on the boat for 40 days and 40 nights. God sends a rainbow, showing that he promises to never destroy the world again by flood.

31
Q

final essay

A

God creates world. Adam and Eve disobey God by eating from the forbidden tree, hiding from God and their third sin, blaming each other. Afterwards, they have kids but Cain kills Abel. After Abel dies, they have another son named Seth. The people of the Earth are all evil, except Noah and his family. God warned Noah about the flood and so he builds the ark, saving his family and two of each animal but they must stay on the ark for forty days and forty nights. The Earth is cleansed and God sends a rainbow symbolizing that He will never destroy the world by flood again. The people then try to build a tower high enough to reach God and be good as Him. God makes them speak all different languages so they can’t understand each other, they then all go elsewhere. Abram comes and God promises to build a great nation from him. His descendants will outnumber the stars and be as great as sand of the Earth.
Abram and Sarai are too old to have kids but an angel appears to them and tells them that they will and changes their names to Abraham and Sarah. Abraham has a son with Hagar, Ishmael. Sarah disapproves of Hagar and Ishmael, who then run away. They run out of water and food, so Hagar leaves Ishmael so she does not have to watch him die. An angel appears to Hagar, saying He will make Ishmael into a great nation. Ishmael gets married. Abraham and Sarah have Isaac, whose name means laughter.

Q

edenic covenant

A

The Edenic Covenant is a conditional one, found in Gen. 1:26-31;2:16-17, that traces the consequences of the sin of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Their disobedience determined the fate of all of humanity. In the Edenic Covenant, God promises Adam that blessings and curses depend on the faithfulness of mankind. Because of their sin, the covenant provides that man ultimately falls to a spiritual and then physical death.

34
Q

Adamic Covenant

A

The Adamic Covenant is found in Gen. 3:16-19 and is an unconditional covenant. Although only God and Adam are participants in this covenant, Adam is considered to be a representative of all of mankind, meaning the provision still applies today. In the Adamic covenant, God tells Adam what kind of hardships he can expect in life because of his sin. Many Christians interpret this covenant to include the promise of a redeemer who will come to rescue men from the consequence of sin.

35
Q

Noahic Covenant

A

Found in Gen 9:1-18, the Noahic Covenant is an unconditional one that God made with Noah and his sons after the flood waters receded and everyone left the Ark. The Bible says that God caused a rainbow to appear in the sky on that day and used it to promise Noah, as well as all of mankind, that he would never again destroy the earth and all its inhabitants in a worldwide flood.

36
Q

Abrahamic covenant

A

The Abrahamic Covenant is an unconditional covenant in which God makes a promise to Abraham that he would be the father to many different nations of people and that he would prosper and be blessed. Through Abraham came the race of the Jews, and the sign of the covenant is circumcision. The details of the Abrahamic Covenant can be found in Genesis 12:1-4;13:14-17; 15:1-7; 17:1-8.

37
Q

Mosaic Covenant

A

The Mosaic Covenant was a conditional one that God made between himself and Moses. Found in Exodus 20:1 - 31:18, this covenant contains the commandments that God gave to the Israelites for uncovering God’s will and for governing the people. In Christian theology, the terms of the Mosaic Covenant, which are commandments, ordinances and judgments, expired on the cross when Jesus died for the sins of men, which started the “New Covenant.”

38
Q

land covenant

A

The details of the Land Covenant are given in Deuteronomy 30:1-10. Some people have referred to this covenant as the “Palestine Covenant,” however the Bible does not refer to this covenant in that manner. Here, God makes an unconditional promise to the Israelites that he will give them a land of their own. This covenant also includes a provision that when the land is given to that nation, the people will all be united once again in serving God and their enemies will be destroyed.
