Sins? Naw, I don't, oh, maybe once in a while!

Good morning everyone! God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!

Tell me about sin. Have we become a nation, a world where we have lost sight of the seriousness of sin? Sometimes we write it off as oh that is just Johnny, or well, he/she just made an error in judgment, just a slip of the tongue, well I just had a moment of weakness - call it what you wish. It is sin. God does not play with sin.

What would you think of a doctor who found a tumor in you and said, "take two aspirin and you'll be just fine?" Or a fireman who came to a fire and said it will burn itself out soon! Or a policeman coming to a robbery and said well, you know boys will be boys. Not one of these is acceptable. We would be up in arms and want their jobs taken away.

God's word does not play this game. Any transgression of God's law is sin. (1 John 3:4) and the payment due for falling short of God's glory is death (Romans 3:23; 6:23)

1 John 3:4 - there is a difference between committing a sin and continuing in that sin. We all will sin, but we can repent, confess it and find forgiveness. A person who continues to sin is not sorry for what he or she is doing.

Romans 3:23 tells us we all have sinned and fall short of God's glorious standard. Then 3:24 tells us that we are righteous because of Jesus Christ when He freed us from the penalty of our sins.

So, the choice is yours - Sin and continue to sin with no remorse and then go to hell. OR, ask forgiveness of your sins through Jesus Christ and be on a path to heaven.

It does not take such a great man to be a Christian, it just take all there is of him. Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace
