Simon Wallace - I went through Confirmation classes to "confirm my faith in God" and become a member of the church. I don't remember the Bible being opened during these classes to have God's way of salvation explained. I had been baptised as a child and after these sessions was now a member of the church, and yet I remained ignorant as to the very reason for which Christ came into the world...
Memory Verse: Genesis 3:21 Memory Verse Text: The Lord made coats of skins and clothed them
Point 1: Adam and Eve were afraid, so they hid from God. Point 2: God called, "Where art thou?" Why? God knew where they were already. He called because He wanted them to know. Point 3: What should Adam have said when God came near?... "I have sinned" How did he answer when God asked him, "Hast thou eaten?" How did Eve answer? Why did they do that? Sin has a bad effect on the mind and heart. Did their excuses change anything? Point 4: God made them coats of skins. How did God get the skin? God made a promise @ the Saviour (Gen. 3:15). God put them out of the beautiful garden.
Notes: Note the effects of sin: fear, distance, tears and sorrow, increased childbirth, shortened lives, certain death, cursed ground, and sweat.
