This is the introductory episode in a new series titled Aphesis: The forgiveness of sins. In this episode, we consider God's plan for man and the sin problem. It answers questions like: Why did God create man? What was God's response to man's sins? Did God have a salvation plan for man in the Garden of Eden? Why did man need the forgiveness of sins? What is salvation? What does it mean to walk in the flesh? How do we live above sin?
