Genesis 3:1–7
From the Start - Part 8

Pastor Drew Webb teaches from Genesis 3:1–7 on the origins of sin, the tactics of Satan, and the spiritual implications that continue to shape humanity. This message examines the serpent’s deception, the distortion of God’s Word, and the heartbreaking moment the first man and woman chose disobedience. By exploring the historical and theological significance of this passage, Pastor Webb helps listeners understand why this moment is foundational to Christian belief.

The message also confronts the reality of temptation: how sin begins in the heart, why desire becomes dangerous when it moves outside God’s design, and how the enemy uses subtle manipulation to draw believers away from the truth. By connecting Genesis 3 with passages throughout Scripture, Pastor Drew demonstrates that the same spiritual battle present in Eden continues today.

Finally, the sermon offers hope and practical tools for resisting temptation by highlighting the believer’s defenses: the Holy Spirit, the Word of God, prayer, and the local church community. These God-given resources equip Christians to stand firm, grow in maturity, and pursue holiness. This teaching is especially meaningful for those seeking biblical clarity, spiritual direction, and practical discipleship in their daily walk.
