Whats In A SIN...



WHAT’S IN A SIN …

…Should Not Deceive Anyone or Be Ignored Because, Though There May Be Pleasure in Sin, There’s Hidden Sorrow & Agony!
Consider this a gentle reminder with simplicity! I take it for granted that everyone knows what sin is. What may be different from person to person is in the way we perceive it, as in size/magnitude, degree/level, and circumstances. This, however does not change sin’s essential nature and effect, much less change God’s eye-view and his response to it. The Bible is crystal-clear about that. Right from beginning Genesis 3v14; 19v15; Leviticus 5v17; through the prophets Isaiah 5v18; Lamentations 3v39; 4v22; Amos 1v9; across into the NT Matthew 25v46; Romans 6v23; Ephesians 5v6; 2Thessalonians 1v9; 1John 3v4; Jude 1v7; to the end Revelation 2v22.  What makes many people yield or fall is a departure from and failure for such serious reflection or consideration. To be still and perhaps ask, “What really is in sin and what does it lead to? What will be the effect?” Sin begets sin. We ought to avoid it at any cost; never even entertain it. God simply commands, “sin not”! Exodus 20v20; Psalm 4v4; 1Corinthians 15v34; 1Jn 2v1.
