What Is Sin? Series

Contributed by Moy Hernandez on Oct 27, 2009

Sin is the devils influence that has been planted in our hearts and that separates us from God, causing us to rebel against Him. Sin, then, in its original form and to this very day, is INSUBORDINATION.

WHAT IS SIN? Romans 7:13-20 The answer is rebellion against God? Paul says: “For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.” (Romans 7:19-20) Sin is the ...read more

Is Legalism A Bad Word?

Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jul 9, 2010

This message deals with the fact that God’s law (from Moses to Christ) is good and that its continued presence in church and culture is right, not wrong.

Too many people today, even Christians, feel like the days of grace and spiritual liberty should erase the law of God. If any minister or church preaches or teaches the laws of God as good, they are labeled as old-fashioned, cult-like, or legalistic. Since when did ‘legalism’ (the idea of abiding ...read more
