The Plan
Prophecy Thread of Week 5
Noah Webster's 1828 Dictionary Definition of Truth:
Conformity to fact or reality; exact accordance with that which is, or has been, or shall be. The truth of history constitutes its whole value. We rely on the truth of the scriptural prophecies.
CORRUPTION - SIN BRINGS DEATH
God gave Adam one commandment to test his obedience. The devil tempted the couple and through deception broke God’s commandment. Initially it was a spiritual death (separation from God), ultimately leading to physical death. The wages of sin brought death into this world. Praise God that Jesus defeated death and will end all death one day (Rev 21:4).
