Sin

Sin is enmity with God.

It is the violation of the person and will of God.

It is refusing to acknowledge the person of god, it is disobedience to the word of God, it is raising up oneself as equal to God.

It is abusing the glory of God, despising the provision of God, exalting man in the place of God.

It is something that man does against and is against God.

Of all the biblical doctrines, sin is the most obvious and verifiable.

Sin permeates every aspect of our existence.

It impacts us individually and societally.

It is deeply rooted within us and is manifested continually.

It is not a calamity that came upon man unawares, poisoned his life, and ruined his happiness, but an evil course which man has deliberately chosen to follow and which carries untold misery with it.

Fundamentally, it is not something passive, such as a weakness, a fault, or an imperfection, for which we cannot be held responsible, but an active opposition to God, and a positive transgression of His law, which constitutes guilt.

Sin is the result of a free but evil choice of man.

This is the plain teaching of the Word of God, Gen. 3:1–6; Isa.

48:8; Rom.

1:18–32; 1 John 3:4.

Sin is any want of conformity unto, or transgression of, any law of God, given as a rule to the reasonable creature.

Three Parts to Sin

The Bible speaks about sin, the only passages in the Bible that have nothing to say about sin and sinners are & 2 and & 22.

The rest of the Bible from to deals with issues of sin one way or the other.

Sin is subtle, if you are living in sin, it will affect how you teach the word or live.

It would muzzle your speech that you will make room for your sin rather than open up to the cleansing power of the word of God.
