How can we keep a fresh picture of the reality of the Fall? How should we understand Genesis’ account that Satan was a serpent? Do we know anything about Satan’s fall into sin? What is temptation? How could sinful desires originate in someone who was righteous? How was Adam and Eve’s sin a “complication of many crimes”? How do we see the Fall working to the glory of God? Tune in as Nathan, Joel, Shawn, and Kyle discuss these questions and more from WCF 6.1:
