We are beginning a new section this week as we look at Christ's finished work on the cross. We know that we have sinned and it causes us to ask the questions "does God hate me because of my sin?" and "can He forgive me?". Even in the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve asked the same questions. But God did not leave them without hope, without a plan for salvation. The sin problem began in the Garden when they ate of the only tree they were told to avoid - the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The result of their disobedience was spiritual death, separation from God. Through them, spiritual death came to the world - we are all born spiritually dead and someone must destroy this wedge that separates us from God. That someone is Jesus Christ.
