What Makes Us Sin, Sef?

From Our Pastor's Desk


Romans 6:17-18 – “But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.

Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness” Let’s talk about the other side of righteousness, which is, of course, unrighteousness, or in other word - SIN. 

We serve a miracle God, not a magician. Magic is trick, requires you to do nothing. But God requires obedience. He cannot bless sin.

If you live in sin, and you’re prospering, it is NOT God. It may be something else, somebody else, but definitely not God. God blesses righteousness, & holiness. Sometimes, we need to be careful of seeing material things as measure of God’s approval. 

Though the Bible tells us “All have become corrupt. No one does good, not a single one!” (Psalm 14:3). Even though we have a sinful nature, but when we give our lives, bodies, souls & spirit to Jesus, as Lord & Savior, we are no longer under sin. 

So, why do we still sin? What makes us sin? While we look at that today, the good news is that God knows of our struggles with sin. He doesn’t ask for perfection, but a contrite spirit that earnestly seeks after Him.

The wisdom to run to Him after a fall, may He give liberally unto us, in Jesus Name. AMEN. 

You will have good success this 2019.

Remain blessed. 

Shalom.
