     | 997 views

    It's Our Fault

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Sep 18, 2024
     | 1,273 views

    How many Churches… How many Christians have let the culture normalize sin and they have just adapted themselves to it. This sermon will help us deal with the consequences of condoning sin and what we should do to avoid it.

    God hates sin, shouldn’t we? Jesus died to offer us forgiveness for our sins, not so we would have a free pass to keep on sinning, He didn’t die on that cross so we could receive a “Get out of Hell Free” card… But here we are a couple of thousand years later watching sin become glorified, watching ...read more
