Sin:
What is Sin? Disobedience
Hebrews 10:15-16 - 15The Holy Spirit also testifies to us about this. First he
says: 16 “This is the covenant I will make with them after that time, says the Lord. I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds.” (niv)
James 4:17 - So it is a sin for the person who knows to do what
is good and doesn’t do it. (hcsb)
We all have disobeyed our Heavenly Father (God).
Romans 3:23 - For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
Why do we need to deal with it?
It Builds Barriers and Causes God to turn away from us.
Isaiah 59:2 - But your iniquities have built barriers between you and your God, and your sins have made Him hide His face from you so that He does not listen.
It makes us slaves
John 8:34 - Jesus responded, “I assure you: Everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin. (hcsb)
The cost of sin is Death
Romans 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Dealing with it:
The promise from God that gives us Hope that we will place action on.
He will Redeem and Forgive.
Redeem - To buy out
Forgive - Only God can forgive what the sin against Him
I John 1:9 - 9 If
we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and
purify us from all unrighteousness. (niv)
Acts 3:19 - Repent, then,
and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing
may come from the Lord, (niv)
The action we must do based on the promise from God to deal with sin.
We must Confess and Repent
Confess - Admission
Repent - Turn away
