Genesis: The Temptation And The Fall
from RADIO FPC
What does Genesis 3 teach us in The Temptation and the Fall? In this sermon on Genesis 3, Dr. Toby Holt of New Geneva Theological Seminary teaches that the fall of Adam is the cataclysm modern people no longer understand: one sin was enough to expel our first parents from God's presence and to curse the whole created order, because the wages of sin is death. From a Reformed and Westminster perspective, Holt exposes the serpent's method of attacking God's word and motives, traces how sin still deceives us today, and shows that Adam's guilt is imputed to all humanity as our federal head. Yet the passage ends in hope: God promises the seed of the woman who will crush the serpent, the second Adam, Jesus Christ, whose imputed righteousness is received by faith alone.
