    The document discusses the origins and nature of man and sin according to Genesis in the Bible. It describes how God created man differently than animals and gave man free will by testing Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. When Adam and Eve disobeyed God by eating the forbidden fruit, it introduced sin into the world. As a result of Adam's sin, all humans are born with a sinful nature and fall short of God's standards, deserving death and separation from God. However, the consequences also provide hope through Jesus.
