Lesson Theme: Rebellion
It is not uncommon to hear challenges such as the following:
“If God made man a sinner, that is, with a sinful nature, it would be nothing short of cruel and unreasonable for Him to punish us.“
It’s like excusing sin by saying, “God made me this way.” Which is no more logical than excusing the crime by saying “Society made me this way.”
Are we devoid of personal responsibility for our actions because sin comes as naturally to the sinner as a song does to a bird, or notes flow from an instrument?
It is statements like this that hold great significance because Calvary is either an unmerited grace of pure love…. or it was some sort of obligation to pay for a Deistic mistake!
“The Fickle Finger of Fault points to no solution”, for the responsibility of sin surely rests somewhere.
Note: No PowerPoint lesson today. Let’s just use our Bibles and make some notes in the margins.
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:”
— Romans 5:12
