    What God wants us to do now is totally depend on Jesus Christ to show the world that Jesus already won all the battles!

    Is there sin in the world? Sin is anything that does not line up with a Holy God! Specifically, where do we see sin in this world we live in?? We are confronted with sin everyday, aren’t we?
