Sin originated when Satan in the form of a serpent deceived Eve into eating fruit from the forbidden tree in the Garden of Eden. This led Adam and Eve to disobey God. As a result, sin entered the world and humanity became fallen. The Bible traces how sin continues to affect all of creation through the descendants of Adam. God responds to human sin with both judgment and grace, exemplified through His promise to redeem humanity from sin through the coming of Jesus Christ.

4. Where did sin
originate?

5. Genesis 3:1
1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any
other beast of the field that the LORD God
had made. He said to the woman, "Did God
actually say, 'You shall not eat of any tree in
the garden?"

6. The Serpent

7. Revelation 12:9
9 The great dragon was hurled down—that
ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan,
who leads the whole world astray. He was
hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

8. Revelation 20:2
2 He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent,
who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for
a thousand years.

9. Genesis 3:1
1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any
other beast of the field that the LORD God
had made. He said to the woman, "Did God
actually say, 'You shall not eat of any tree in
the garden?"
deceived and destroyed competent people

10. Genesis 3:2-3
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may
eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but
God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the
tree that is in the middle of the garden, and
you must not touch it, or you will die.’”
All she needed to do was literally turn her
back on Satan, turn her face toward God,
and walk away.

11. Genesis 3:4-5
4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said
to the woman. 5 “For God knows that when
you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and
you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
If you believe the lie that God is withholding
on you, then you will sin to obtain that which
you believe God is withholding on you,
whatever that is: a relationship, a possession,
an experience, an accomplishment. It’s
discontentedness. It’s dissatisfaction. And it’s
distrust.
It is a lie that God is withholding
the best things from us

12. Genesis 3:6
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the
tree was good for food and pleasing to the
eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom,
she took some and ate it. She also gave
some to her husband, who was with her, and
he ate it.
the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes,
and the boastful pride of life

13. Genesis 3:6
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the
tree was good for food and pleasing to the
eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom,
she took some and ate it. She also gave
some to her husband, who was with her, and
he ate it.

14. Genesis 3:7
7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened,
and they realized they were naked; so they
sewed fig leaves together and made
coverings for themselves.
Sin is going to affect,
mar, stain,
distance all of those
relationships.

15. Genesis 3:8-9
8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound
of the Lord God as he was walking in the
garden in the cool of the day, and they hid
from the Lord God among the trees of the
garden. 9 But the Lord God called to the man,
“Where are you?”

16. Genesis 3:10-11
10 He answered, “I heard you in the garden,
and I was afraid because I was naked; so I
hid.” 11 And he said, “Who told you that you
were naked? Have you eaten from the tree
that I commanded you not to eat from?”
What you hide has power over you

17. Genesis 3:14-15
12 The man said, “The woman you put here
with me—she gave me some fruit from the
tree, and I ate it.” 13 Then the Lord God said
to the woman, “What is this you have done?”
The woman said, “The serpent deceived me,
and I ate.” 14 So the Lord God said to the
serpent, “Because you have done this,

18. Genesis 3:16-17
16 To the woman he said, “I will make your
pains in childbearing very severe; with painful
labor you will give birth to children. Your
desire will be for your husband, and he will
rule over you.” 17 To Adam he said, “Because
you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the
tree about which I commanded you, ‘You
must not eat from it,’

19. Genesis 3:17-18
“Cursed is the ground because of you;
through painful toil you will eat food from it all
the days of your life. 18 It will produce thorns
and thistles for you, and you will eat the
plants of the field.

20. Genesis 3:19-20
19 By the sweat of your brow you will eat your
food until you return to the ground, since from
it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust
you will return.” 20 Adam named his wife Eve,
because she would become the mother of all
the living.

21. Genesis 3:21-22
21 The Lord God made garments of skin for
Adam and his wife and clothed them. 22 And
the Lord God said, “The man has now
become like one of us, knowing good and
evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his
hand and take also from the tree of life and
eat, and live forever.”

22. Genesis 3:23-24
23 So the Lord God banished him from the
Garden of Eden to work the ground from
which he had been taken. 24 After he drove
the man out, he placed on the east side of the
Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming
sword flashing back and forth to guard the
way to the tree of life.

23. What is sin?

24. WHAT IS SIN?
• Sin through omission and commission.
Omission is not doing what you’re supposed to,
commission is doing what you’re not supposed
to.
• Sin includes our thoughts and words.
• There are things in our world that are crimes, but
there are things that are sins that are not crimes.

25. WHAT IS SIN?
• Sins also are the breaking of laws.
• It’s also violating your own conscience, where
the Spirit of God convicts you. It is perversion
and pollution.
• If it’s founding your identity on anyone or
anything other than Jesus.

26. Sin is more than breaking God’s
laws. It’s breaking God’s heart.

27. Is all sin equal?

28. Though all sin is equal, not all sin
is equally devastating in its effects.

affect me personally?

30. Imputed Sin
From Adam

31. Imparted Sin
From ourselves

32. What is totally
depravity?

33. When you sin – we’re sinners by nature and
choice. When we sin we don’t cease to be
human. We’re not less than human. We’re
still image-bearers of God. The image of
God is marred and stained and tainted,
all of the magnificent potential we have
is now for evil and not good, for self, not
God.
