“The Browns’ house at number thirty-two Windsor Gardens was unusually quiet. It was a warm summer day, and all the family, with the exception of Paddington, who had mysteriously disappeared shortly after lunch, were sitting on the veranda enjoying the afternoon sun. Apart from the faint rustle of paper as Mr. Brown turned the pages of an enormous book and the click of Mrs. Brown’s knitting needles, the only sound came from Mrs. Bird, their housekeeper, as she prepared the tea things.”

“Finally, we see that even though Adam and Eve both sinned, and both received a punishment, it was Adam who bore the responsibility. The Scriptures state that “in Adam all die” (1 Corinthians 15:22) and that “through one man sin entered into the world” (Romans 5:12). Sin is never said to have come from Eve because she did not have headship. The leader is the one who bears the responsibility, even if someone under him does something wrong.”

“be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. 24For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. 25But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing.”
