Sandy Finlayson and I have never met. We often correspond; sharing a great love for the Two Ronnies and the winding up Carl Trueman. Sandy is not only the Director of Library Services at Westminster Seminary, he is an OPC elder at Cornerstone, Philadelphia. The MoS team recently did a podcast with...

What commandments did Adam break in the Garden when he and his wife ate from the tree which God commanded them not to eat from (Gen. 2:16-17; 3:6)?
