There Are No Advantages To Sin

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 27, 2021

Sins Of Omission Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 31, 2021

We are tempted to do evil, but seldom think of the reality that we are also tempted to not do good. It is possible to be doing nothing wrong, and still be living in sin, because of what we are not doing. This is the surprising truth that James hits us with in 4:17 where he says, "Anyone, ...read more
