What is Sin?It is the glory of God not honored.
The holiness of God not reverenced.
The greatness of God not admired.
The power of God not praised.
The truth of God not sought.
The wisdom of God not esteemed.
The beauty of God not treasured.
The goodness of God not savored.
The faithfulness of God not trusted.
The commandments of God not obeyed.
The justice of God not respected.
The wrath of God not feared.
The grace of God not cherished.
The presence of God no prized.
The person of God not loved.
That is sin.”
– John Piper
Everyone has sinned...
There is no difference between Jew and Gentile,
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
Romans 3:22-23
There is a price to pay for our sins...
For the wages of sin is death,
but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6:23
Jesus paid the price for our sins...
He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours
but also for the sins of the whole world.
1 John 2:2
God hates sin. He will never allow sin to enter His heaven.
He knew for us to enter heaven the price had to be paid for our sin.
Jesus, speaks up to God the Father and says, "I'll pay the price!"
Nowing the price was death Jesus was still willing to leave the splendors of heaven and come to this earth to die. To die for you and me. Jesus paid the price for our sin so we would not have to!
God hates sin but Oh, how He loves us!
Father God in heaven, I thank You for the amazing love you have for us. That while we were still sinners Jesus died for us, paying the price for our sins. I pray for those reading this blog. Father, will you reveal Yourself to them in a personal way, right where they are. Let them feel the love you have for them.
In Jesus name, Amen.
