"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. (John 1:1-3)

"God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very good." (Genesis 1:31)

It wasn't long, however, before Satan entered the picture and tempted the first man and woman to sin by eating of the forbidden fruit in their perfect home, Eden (Genesis 3:1-6).

Thus sin entered the world and that first sin was closely followed by another, the first murder, when Cain killed his brother, Abel (Genesis 4:1-8)

From there is snow balled to the point that within nine generation from Adam God's new assessment of His creation was that "the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually" (Genesis 6:50).

By the time of Noah mankind's sin had become so prevalent that God was sorry He had made man and "was grieved in His heart" (Genesis 6:6).

Tonight, we encounter a new word, Wrath, specifically the wrath of God.
