I. Man Has Sin In Nature

Ephesians 2:3 ESV
3 among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.
God’s glory is shown in salvation.
We are children of wrath.
We are unable to save ourselves.

4 Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight, so that you may be justified in your words and blameless in your judgment.
God’s glory is shown in judgement.
All sin is ultimately against God.
We confess sin for His glory, not merely our guilt.
God is Just; Sin Must Be Punished
Christ on the Cross
Us In Hell

II. Man Has Sin By Inheritance

Romans 5:12 ESV
12 Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned—
In Adam, All Die, By Birth
In Christ, All Live, By New Birth (Faith/Belief)
Christ took the wrath of God, to give righteousness to His people. Propitiation
He shows mercy Don’t Get What’s Deserved and gives grace Get What isn’t Deserved.

III. Man Has Responsibility For Sin

Deuteronomy 32:4 ESV

God is:
Perfect, Faithful, Upright
Man is:
Corrupt, Blemished, Crooked
James 1:13 ESV

God Must Punish Bad (Disobedience/Unrighteousness)

IV. Man Has Consequences For Sin

James 2:10 ESV
10 For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it.
It’s so easy to fall short! We always fall short!
Romans 3:25 ESV
25 whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God’s righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins.
Sin requires punishment, and that punishment is death.
John 15:5 ESV
5 I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
We can’t save ourselves, we can’t do any good alone!
We need Christ, without Him we are dead!
