Who caused sin? Did God cause sin? Who is to blame? When we look at Genesis 1-3, we understand that the fault for sin lies with the devil and with us. The Lord is not the cause of sin— if He was, He would be no different than a terrorist. However, our Lord is merciful in Christ to all nations. He created everything and still preserves it. Therefore, we trust that the LORD who did not spare His own Son will also strengthen us as we walk through this veil of tears.

Rev. Dr. Matthew Richard, pastor at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Minot, ND, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to confess the Scriptural truth on the cause of sin.
