Fallenness #

We believe that the original goodness of creation and the human creature has been corrupted by sin, namely, the self-defeating choice of the first human beings to deny the Creator and the created order by going their own way, breaking God’s law for life. 

We believe that through disobedience to the law-giver, Adam and Eve incurred disorder instead of order, divine condemnation instead of approval, and death instead of life for themselves and their descendants. Additionally, each and every natural descendent of the Adam and Eve has also sinned, individually earning God’s wrath, and is incapable in his or her own power of attaining righteousness.
