Paragraph 7. THE FALL

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

397
Man, tempted by the devil, let his trust in his Creator die in his heart and,
abusing his freedom, disobeyed God’s command. This is what man’s first sin
consisted of.²⁷⁸ All subsequent sin would be disobedience toward God
and lack of trust in his goodness.
