Why Christians Do Not Continue In Sin (1of 3)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

In chapter 5:12-21, we discovered that sin entered the world through Adam, who was the head of the human race.

His one sin plunged the whole human race into sin, because all mankind was in his loins when he sinned. The Bible tells us that mankind is born into sin, but even if It did not state this, it would not be hard to prove. Illus: All you have to do is watch a newborn baby.

As the book of EXODUS begins, the Israelites are being held as slaves in Egypt. And when the time is ready for God to lead them out of Egypt, He calls a man named Moses to free them.

Lord Of The Sabbath ( Matthew 12:1-14)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 23, 2025

In this chapter, Jesus teaches the true meaning of the “Sabbath” and how it is to bring glory to God, not to be used as a religious weapon. The hostility towards Jesus was starting to grow.

Before we undergo any further study of this chapter, it would be helpful to understand the concept of the “Sabbath”. According to the fourth commandment (Exodus 20:8), the Sabbath was set aside as one day in seven to cease from labor and take a rest from all unnecessary activity. Exodus 31:15 ...read more
