Sin

Dear Freinds..Leviticus Chapter 13 speaks of Leprosy. This horrible disease is closely related in the Old Testament as they type of Sin. Leprosy as spoken as Sin as 1. In the Blood 2. becoming overt in loathsome ways; 3. incurable by human means. The anti-type as applied to the people of GOD is "Sin," demanding self judgment (I Cor 11:31); and "Sins," demanding confession and cleansing (I John 1:9). Romans 6:12-14 is plain in truth that GOD has demanded us to not let Sin have any place in our life. For Sin shall not have dominion over you (verse 14). Verse 23 of this chapter tells us that the wages of Sin is Death. But, Praise be to GOD that there is the 2nd part to this verse..but, the gift of GOD is Eternal Life through JESUS CHRIST our LORD!!! As I have been in Sin, I am an old sinner, I served sin, I followed after sin, I gave my whole being to sin in a very zealous way, I pleased the flesh and was well on my way to an eternal death and seperation from GOD. I was against GOD and all of HIS Precious Words and Promises. But, now by the Grace of GOD and through the convicting Power of HIS HOLY SPIRIT, I have accepted HIS SON JESUS CHRIST and now I am no longer my own! I have been bought with a price that cost GOD'S HOLY SON HIS Life! And I can stand firmly on GOD'S Word that since I have confessed to a HOLY GOD my sins, and have accepted the HOLY BLOOD of JESUS to cover my sins, that they be remembered no more, I can stand and say boldly and publicly..I'm Saved and my name has been recorded in Heaven, that I am now a child of the KING! What a change! As I go through life, Romans Chapter 6:19 tells me that now I am to yeild my members servants to righteousness unto holiness. To serve GOD with the same zealous manner that I once served my self and sin...To be HOLY as GOD is HOLY. I can only do this through my Perfect Savior..JESUS CHRIST. To renew my whole being a fresh and a new every single moment of my life. To have my whole being surrounded by GOD and the Power of the HOLY SPIRIT. I John 1:8-10 tells us that we all have sinned. Sin is deceitful. If we say we have no sin, we make GOD a liar. But in the middle of all our sin, verse 9 gives us Hope and a HOLY Promise from a HOLY GOD..If we confess our sins, HE is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteouness! Praise GOD!! In my closing you ask me why I write and say such things? I will tell you simply...I don't want to see any of you die and spend eternity in Hell! As in the book of Ephesians Chapter 6 verse 7 states..With good will doing service, as to the LORD, and not to men: Verse 8 Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the LORD, wheter he is bond or free. Verse 9 in the second part gives every single person, no matter what you may have done or being involved in, that my HOLY GOD, will accept you just as you are and the ground in level at the foot of the cross....knowing that your Master also in Heaven; neither is there respect of persons with HIM.

In CHRIST'S Service,
