The fall brought upon mankind the loss of communion with God, his displeasure and curse; so as we are by nature children of wrath, bond slaves to Satan, and justly liable to all punishments in this world, and that which is to come.

Proofs

  • The fall brought upon mankind the loss of communion with God, (Genesis 3:8, 10, 24)
  • his displeasure and curse; so as we are by nature children of wrath, (Ephesians 2:2–3)
  • bond slaves to Satan, (2 Timothy 2:26)
  • and justly liable to all punishments in this world, and that which is to come. (Genesis 2:17; Lamentations 3:39; Romans 6:23; Matthew 25:41, 46; Jude 7)
