ADAM'S CONFESSION OF FEAR PROVED HIS GUILT. If a child dreads its parent, either the child or the parent must be wrong. III. ADAM'S MORBID MORAL SENSITIVENESS PROVED HIS GUILT. The worst kind of indelicacy is in being shocked at what is natural and proper. Conclusion: 1. Sin cannot escape from God. 2. Sin cannot stand before God. 3. Sin may find compassion from God. (A. J. Morris.) Parallel Verses KJV: And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?WEB: Yahweh God called to the man, and said to him, "Where are you?" |
