Life is coramDeo. • In covenantwith God • Why are we here? • Psalm 1; 1 John 1:1-3 (WSC #1) • Design: pure, perfected worshipand fellowship • What do we know? (Romans 1:18-32) • All people know God as Righteous, Almighty Judge • All people are accountable.

  5. Scripture: What Happened? • Descendants of Adam, our covenant head (Gen 1; Rom 5) • Adam’s Fall & Its Consequences (Gen 3; Rom 1-8) • Guilt (actual) • Corruption (actual) • Alienation (actual)

  6. Implications for Missions • Unity before diversity, diversity out of unity • Biblical Analysis • All people everywhere made in God’s image. • All people everywhere are sinners as defined by Scripture. • Guilty of violating God’s covenant • Corrupted in heart against the God of the covenant • Alienated in relationship from the God of the covenant • Universal solution is Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection • Justification • Sanctification • Adoption • Biblical truth for mission: problem & solution.
