Sinful Sympathy Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 1, 2021

Chapter 4 shows us three approaches that Eliphaz took to Job, which he apparently thought would be helpful, but which are contrary to the true spirit of sympathy, and thus, must be classified as sinful sympathy, for they do more harm than good.

Tragedy so often leads to bitterness against God. Mark Twain had a daughter who died at the age of 21 because of diphtheria. His wife also died young. He became so angry and bitter that he lashed out at God with the very gift that made him famous, his pen. He wrote and imaginative tale about ...read more

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

Sins Of Omission Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 31, 2021

The basic definition of sin is missing the mark. It is missing the opportunity to do good, and choosing instead to do evil, or to do nothing at all. And the nothing at all is often overlooked as being a part of the whole problem of sin.

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

Sins Of Omission Series

Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 23, 2009

While we are careful to avoid doing what is wrong, we often neglect doing what is right.

JAMES 4:17 SINS OF OMISSION ”Whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.” It is one thing to be ignorant of what is expected and to thus offend; it is quite another thing to know what is right and yet fail to do it. We evangelical Christians are familiar with the ...read more

Quit Dabbling In Sin!

Contributed by Robbie Parsons on Aug 17, 2008

Just as God demanded the Israelites to cast off the jewelry that they brought with them from Egypt, He commands us today to get rid of the former bad habits and sins in our life.

In verse two, God promises to fulfill his promise, but without the exceptional delight of His presence, rather sending them in with an angel. In verse three, God proclaims their sin ...read more
