How Sin Entered God’s Creation.

As states in the previous post sin is essentially another term for evil. When God created both man and angels, God gave both us and them free will. God did want a bunch of robots that just behave them selves because they had no choice. He wanted being that would love, worship, and serve Him of our own free will.

Evil entered God’s creation when the chief angel called Lucifer decided that wanted to be God and Now called Satan he has been causing trouble ever since. Fist he recruited a third of the angels into his rebellion and the enlisted man kind.

When God placed Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, He basically gave them one rule. Don’t eat the fruit of one of the trees called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and that violation that rule would bring death. At first glance this may seem rather severe but there are two points that need to be made.

1.      Adam and Eve had little opportunity to sin and by eating that fruit they were rebelling against God as much as they had opportunity to do.

2.      In the Garden of Eden Adam and Eve knew good and so when they eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil they were deliberately seeking evil.

Some time after God placed Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and Lucifer rebelled Satan approached Eve using a snake. He successfully got her to eat the fruit of the trees called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and then used her to get Adam to eat it.

This is how evil came into the world and once it was present God had to deal with it.

Absolute Truth

One thing Christians clearly believe in is absolute truth that is because the bible is held to be the source of absolute truth. There are those that claim that there is no absolute truth. However the illogic such a statement is obvious since even if you don’t know what the absolute truth is it must by definition exist.
Furthermore, the statement “There is no absolute truth” is a self refuting statement, since it is itself an absolute statement. The point is that for it to have any chance of being true there has to be absolute truth, which makes the statement wrong.

So yes there definitely is absolute truth and than the Lord God, we can know what it is through the His written word the Bible.

What is a Christian?

Being a Christian is not about following a set of rules or going to Church. It is about a relationship with Jesus Christ.  

To be a real Christian one needs to accept Jesus Christ as you personal Savior. This is done by accepting Christ/s death on the cross as payment for our sin and repenting of tour sin in prayer. This can be done by any one at any place any time.
