In this video from Desiring God, Ben Stuart offers advice for overcoming temptation: looking down stream to anticipate where the temptation leads, and looking upstream to God.

Randy Alcorn shares his thoughts on the differences between these two falls. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

In response to the question, "Will we be able to fall into sin again?" Randy Alcorn emphasizes that in the life to come we will have Christ's righteousness as well as the memory of what life in sin was like. So we will have no desire to ever go back to sin again, and thereby will not be capable of another fall. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

Is it possible there could be another fall after the coming of the New Jerusalem? Randy Alcorn discusses several verses that show there can never be another fall because there is absolutely no presence of sin in the New Jerusalem. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

Adam and Eve were perfect when they were in the garden, but they sinned. Will we be able to sin again in the coming life? Randy Alcorn answers this question from Romans and Revelation. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

First, we need to define sin nature. The “nature” of a person or object is commonly thought of as its essential qualities or attributes; that which makes it what it is. 

Question from a reader: If the penalty of sin is eternal conscious physical torment, wouldn’t Christ have to still be suffering today in order to pay the debt? 

If we physically die while existing in a state of spiritual death, our spiritual death becomes permanent and we will eternally exist estranged from God.

Randy Alcorn talks about the extent of the fall and its influence on every aspect of our life. Our ability to enjoy each other, food, experiences and animals has been tainted by sin. Destruction of the world would not solve the curse. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.
