The Harsh Reality And Unavoidable Issue Of Sin

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Oct 13, 2021

Sin is a serious and destructive fact of life. We define it as a series of "mistakes", "errors of judgment", or "bad behavior". We need to see sin for what it is -an abomination in the sight of a Holy God (Ezekiel 18:20; Romans 6:23).

Some view the idea as an illusion, the construction of ancient religious fanatics, or fantasy. Many deny ...read more
