...who made the sun and earth and moon?
Who made the trees and animals, and all the beautiful birds and flowers and things?
Maybe you even wonder where the first people came from. The Bible, which is the Word of God, tells us in the very first verse (Genesis 1:1):
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."
The very first chapter of the Bible also teaches us that God created the first two people, the man (Adam) and his wife (known as Eve). Through these two people the whole human race came about. You could say that Adam and Eve are your great- great-great (plus about another 200 or so more 'great') grandparents.
God also tells us in His book (the Bible) that he is righteous and just:
"For the Lord our God is righteous in all
the works that He does" (Daniel 9:14).
This means that God has never done anything wrong. He is without sin, and all his thoughts, decisions, judgments and actions are perfect.
What is sin?
Sin is saying no to God. Anything we think, or say, or do, which God disproves of, that is sin, whether we know it is a sin or not. You might ask yourself – have I sinned against God? If you have ever been jealous, angry, bitter, gossiped, lied, judged someone, or disobeyed your parents in any way, then you have committed personal sin. This is just a small list of sins, but there are many other things we think, say or do which God doesn't like. God has also judged that every person born into the world is a sinner, so unless you want to argue with God (not very wise) you should probably accept that God is right – you are a sinner.
"There is none righteous, not even one."
(Romans 3:10a)
"For all have sinned, and fallen short of the glory of God."
