Transcript

What’s the connection between our sin and Jesus’ death? And why did Jesus need to come and die?

You see, millions of years puts death before sin. And if that’s the case, death isn’t the penalty for sin—so why did Jesus need to come and die?

Death is the penalty for sin, and the gospel is true because the history in Genesis is also true.
