Bible Overview (Page 4)
Christians often have a hard fitting pieces of the bible together. We may have an understanding of family, church, sin, salvation, the cross and other aspects of Christianity, but a lot of times we don’t see how all of these fit together and paint a true picture of Christ.
Sin
Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
