The very moment you open it, the surprise is spoiled. This is a picture of how sin came into the perfect world that God had made. Sin is disobeying God s commands.

When you do something wrong, do you sometimes make excuses to try and cover up or blame someone else? This is what Adam and Eve did. We all sin, but we shouldn t make excuses or tell lies to cover it up. We can t hide our sin from God. He knows all about it. He wants us to be sorry and turn away from our sin so that He can forgive us! God told Adam that because of his sin, the earth was spoiled and it would produce thorns and thistles. They had to leave that lovely garden and Adam now had to work very hard to obtain food. Because of their sin they were no longer happy in God s company, and one day they would have to die. Also, because of their sin, every human being would be born with a sinful nature. Look up Romans 5: in your Bible. For teacher s remarks 0
