We believe that God created Adam and
Eve in His image, but they sinned when
tempted by Satan. In union with Adam,
human beings are sinners by nature and
by choice, alienated from God, and
under His wrath. Only through God’s
saving work
in Jesus Christ can we be rescued,
reconciled and renewed.

This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness
of God. 2 He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day
they were created.Genesis 5:1-2

4 Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God
knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will
be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant
to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with
her, and he ate.Genesis 3:4-6

10 So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because
I was naked; and I hid myself.”11 And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that
you should not eat?
Genesis 3:10-11”

“Original sin, however mysterious its nature may be, tells us that the reality of sin
is something far deeper than the mere outward commission of sinful deeds...It
tells us that there is an inner root of
sinfulness which corrupts man‘s true nature and
from which his sinful deeds spring. Like a deadly poison, sin has penetrated into and infected the very center of man‘s
being...“

…here’s an ideology that appeals to them, it’s something that’s very attractive to more people than you might think. In France, a poll
by [ICM Research] showed that 27% of young French people, not just Muslims, between 18 and 24 had a favourable attitude toward the Islamic State. The jihad is the only systemic cultural ideology that’s effective, that’s growing, that’s attractive, that's glorious—that basically says to these young people, “Look, you're on the outs, nobody cares about you, but look what we can do. We can change the world.”

It’s not about recruitment, it’s about self-seekers. The Islamic State and Al Qaeda don’t directly order commando operations. Basically they say, “Hey guys, here are ideas, do it yourself. Here’s the way to make a pressure cooker bomb; here are likely targets that will terrorize people; here are things we hate. Go out and do it.”

6 For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died
for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man
will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates His own love
toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
