The Man Who Rebels! Genesis 3

Series: The God Who Is There- A Series in the Book of Genesis Topic: 1 Passage: Genesis 3:1–3:13

After 2 months exploring creation in the first two chapters of Genesis, we move onto Genesis 3 and the Fall of Man, where the authority structure God put in place (God - Man - Woman - Animals) gets turned upside down.  Eve listens to the serpent, Adam listens to Eve and no one listens to God.  As you read the conversation between Eve and the serpent, you notice how God's word and character are subtly diminished, challenged and attacked.  When that happen, sin is sure to be given free reign.
