The sin of all sins is the sin of unbelief. It is is the sin that says dry bones can’t live. Your children can’t flourish like the palm tree. The kingdom of God can’t breathe and the promises of God will flatline.
The serpent’s lie before Adam’s fall was, “you will not surely die” (Genesis 3:4). But his lie afterward, his lie today, is that you and yours will not surely live. You will not eat the fat, drink the sweet, and you will have no portions to send to others. That lie is all the more deceptive because in Adam all die (1 Corinthians 15:22).
But two thousand years ago, the Creator wedded Himself to creation in the womb of a virgin. In a place of no seed, in a barren and dead place, God came and resurrection with Him. Some three decades later, in a virgin tomb, where no body had previously been laid, resurrection sprouted in history (John 19:41).
So look to the firstfruits of the new creation, which is Christ risen from the dead, and know for certain that you and yours will live. How could you not? You live in a world of resurrection.
