    Dealing With Sin

    Contributed by Robert Sickler on Mar 15, 2017

    When hopes are delayed, turn to the Bible, pray, and look to the future. The final fulfillment is in Christ, (Daniel 9:24) "...to put an end to sin, to atone for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness..."

    THIS MAY TAKE A WHILE—Daniel 9 The family is on a road trip, when one of the kids starts the incessant refrain, “Are we almost there?” The parent replies, “Not yet; we have a ways to go.” Ten minutes later, the question and answer are the same. “Are we almost there?
