The Fall Effect Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Feb 12, 2021

The first response after sin entered the world was that Adam and Eve instantaneously went from no-shame nakedness to shame-filled nakedness. Such nakedness caused them to hide themselves from each other, and also hide in fear from God.

A good conscience is an unseen and a peace-giving jewel of a God-fearing man. Conscience is a gift from God. It tames our animal instinct and awakens us to moral consciousness.
