Question: What happened to Adam and Eve on account of their sin?
Answer: Because of their sin, Adam and Eve lost the grace of God and their right to Heaven. Their minds became darkened, their wills weakened, and they were subject to suffering and death. They also transmitted this fallen condition, called original sin, to all their descendants.
Scripture:
“Through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men.” (Romans 5:12)
Reflection: Lord, help me to understand the seriousness of sin and the greatness of Your mercy that restores us through Jesus Christ.
