E38 Q45 46 47 Was the world God created good? If so why sin, and what are its consequences?

Yes. God created all things and called them “very good” (Genesis 1:31). However, through sin, evil and death have come into the world and corrupted it.
Adam and Eve rebelled against God, thus bringing upon all humanity pain, toil, alienation from God and each other, and death. I have inherited this fallen and corrupted human nature; consequently, I too sin and fall short of God’s glory.
Because of sin, those apart from Christ are spiritually dead, separated from God, under his righteous condemnation, and without hope.

E33: Q39 Q40 Why do you call the first of the three divine Persons “Father”, and what does that mean?

Our Lord Jesus Christ is the only divine Son of the Father. He called God “Father” and taught his disciples to do the same. God gives believers his Holy Spirit and adopts us as his children, enabling us to call him “Father.” When I call God “Father,” I declare that I was created for relationship with him, that I trust in God as my Protector and Provider, and that I put my hope in God as his child and heir in Christ.
