DO YOU HAVE CONTROL OVER SIN
1st John 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.1
6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
Sin is real it’s breaking God’s laws.
It disobeys the 10 commandments.
We fail to live by the sermon on the mount.
Matthew 5: 5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Matthew 5: 7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Christ came to destroy sin and the devil and his works.
Christ has power over all sin’s and Satan.
