THE CURE- IMMANUEL
Romans 5:12-21
Introduction:
As we have been studying in Romans, we need a cure for sin; and that cure is Jesus. That is exactly who we are celebrating today.
Matthew 1:22-23
Romans 5:12-14
Sin’s...
1. Start.
Sin began with Adam. The problem is that it has been passed from generation to generation. Even before the Law had been given to Moses, man was guilty. How is that? Each person has been born into a nature of sin. If you don’t believe that, just watch young children. Do you have to teach a child how to lie? No, they just figure it out- Sin nature.
The consequence of Adam’s sin was death. Not only has the nature of sin been passed from generation to generation; but so has death. We all die a physical death thanks to Adam. God knew before He had even created Adam that he would sin and that this sin would lead to death. God also loved us even before we were created and knew that there was going to be a divide put between us and Him. When Jesus came to this Earth, He knew that the plan was to have victory over sin and death so that we could once again have fellowship and a relationship with God.
Romans 5:15-21
Sin’s…
2. Defeat.
Because you are a sinner, you were destined to eternal punishment in Hell; but through the grace of God, you have been justified. Jesus, the 2nd Adam, has given us eternal life if we will accept the gift.
Conclusion:
Because of 1 sin, all of mankind has been condemned; but because of 1 Man, we have been given grace. Regardless of how terrible you have been, the blood of Christ can change you forever. Christians, if you haven’t been obedient; confess that to God and get moving in the right direction.
