Best Answer

After Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden, SIN came upon all men. God hates sin. Sin may not seem bad to us but it is evil in the eyes of God. Jesus Christ came into the world to save men from their sins. This was His ultimate purpose for coming to earth. If we do not believe in the Son of God, (Jesus Christ) that He died and was resurrected we will not be forgiven of our sins and will pay the penalty by suffering in the Lake of Fire. Sin is a very serious matter that each person should consider carefully.

What do the books in the Old Testament tell us about?

They tell part of God's redemptive story to bring humanity back into a right relationship with Him leading up to God the Father sending His Son, Jesus, into the world to bring about redemption from sin. We clearly see God's character in the Old Testament (His love, grace, holiness, sovereignty, power, saving nature, etc.) The Old Testament contains the Law and the Prophets, which Jesus later fulfilled (Matthew 5:17 & Luke 24:44). The Old Testament shows us our need of a Savior to pay for our sins, and speaks of the Savior who was to come. Jesus fulfills all of the prophecies of the Old Testament, lives a perfect life without sin, and then becomes the sacrifice for all humanity's sin, thus completing the work His Father gave Him to do.
