CREATION & “THE FALL”
WHY DOES THE WORLD **NEED** A SAVIOR??
Things started out fine…
Genesis 1:1 “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
はじめに神は天と地とを創造された。
Humans were God’s special creation
Genesis 1:27 “So God created humans in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
神は自分のかたちに人を創造された。すなわち、神のかたちに創造し、男と女とに創造された。
Everything was GOOD
Genesis 1:31 “God saw all that he had made and it was very good.”
神が造ったすべての物を見られたところ、それは、はなはだ良かった。夕となり、また朝となった。第六日である。
People loved each other
And they loved God more than anything
else Everything was
………………………….PERFECT.
BUT THEN…
Humans DISOBEYED God
This is REBELLION………SIN
The result…
God’s anger… Broken relationship…
Humanity’s sin caused… Broken relationships, violence, and Death
Romans 5:12 Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned
このようなわけで、ひとりの人によって、罪がこの世にはいり、また罪によって死がはいってきたように、こうして、すべての人が罪を犯したので、死が全人類にはいり込んだのである。
Humanity would now experience:
DISEASE
All of creation was effected
Things were no longer PERFECT
Creation became ‘cursed’
Genesis 3:17 To Adam he said, "Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, 'You must not eat of it,' "Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life.
更に人に言われた、「あなたが妻の言葉を聞いて、食べるなと、わたしが命じた木から取って食べたので、／地はあなたのためにのろわれ、／あなたは一生、苦しんで地から食物を取る。
These things happen now…
Worst of all… SIN caused humanity’s
relationship with God to break.
Genesis 3:23 So the LORD God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken
そこで主なる神は彼をエデンの園から追い出して、人が造られたその土を耕させられた。
This is called “The Fall”
It was a fall from the perfection that God created, into
BROKENNESS
Because of this… Romans 3:23 All
have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
すなわち、すべての人は罪を犯したため、神の栄光を受けられなくなっており、
SIN

Jesus of Nazareth
God sent his son
John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
神はそのひとり子を賜わったほどに、この世を愛して下さった。それは御子を信じる者がひとりも滅びないで、永遠の命を得るためである。
His son, Jesus, who…
Lived a sinless life
1Peter 2:22 "He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth.”
キリストは罪を犯さず、その口には偽りがなかった。
His son, Jesus, who…
Took our guilt upon himself
1Peter 3:18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God.
キリストも、あなたがたを神に近づけようとして、自らは義なるかたであるのに、不義なる人々のために、ひとたび罪のゆえに死なれた。ただし、肉においては殺されたが、霊においては生かされたのである。
By faith we are reconciled with God
2Corinthians 5:19 God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people's sins against them
すなわち、神はキリストにおいて世をご自分に和解させ、その罪過の責任をこれに負わせることをしないで、わたしたちに和解の福音をゆだねられたのである。
SIN
THE END
Walk on eggshells
Don’t put your eggs all in one basket
