THE SINNING HEART
Kenute P. Curry
Beloved, all of us are enslaved to sin, until Christ sets us free from the law of sin and death. Seek Him out today.
John 8:2-3
1. OUR INIQUITIES ARE HIGHER THAN OUR HEADS; OUR GUILT IS AS HIGH AS THE HEAVENS (Ezra 9:6).
2. SOME PEOPLES SINS ARE CLEARLY EVIDENT; THE SINS OF OTHERS SURFACE LATER (1 Timothy 5:24).
3. THERE IS NO RIGHTEOUS MAN ON EARTH WHO DOES GOOD AND NEVER SINS (Ecclesiastes 7:20). THE WHOLE WORLD IS GUILTY BEFORE GOD (Romans 3:19). ALL OF MANKIND HAS SINNED (Galatians 3:22).
4. WHOEVER KEEPS THE LAW AND FAILS IN ONE POINT, IS GUILTY OF BREAKING IT ALL (James 2:10).
Proverbs 28:13
5. THE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES RIGHTEOUSNESS WAS ONLY CONCERNED WITH EXTERNAL OBEDIENCE, NOT INWARD REALITY (Matthew 5:20).
6. IF WE SAY WE HAVE NO SIN, WE MAKE GOD OUT TO BE A LIAR, AND HIS WORD IS NOT IN US (1 John 1:10).
7. JESUS IS DESCRIBED AS:
A. ONE WHO KNEW NO SIN (2 Corinthians 5:21).
B. HOLY, INNOCENT, AND UNDEFILED (Hebrews 7:26).
C. THERE IS NO SIN IN HIM (1 John 3:5).
Daniel 9:9
8. AWAKE TO RIGHTEOUSNESS AND STOP SINNING, FOR SOME PEOPLE ARE IGNORANT ABOUT GOD (1 Corinthians 15:34).
Psalm 34:14; Romans 6:2, 13, 18; 2 Timothy 2:22; 1 Peter 4:1
Jesus came to set the captives free. He conquered death, hell, and the grave, and rose victorious to ascend on high, where He is seated at the right hand of the Father, interceding for you and me. Beloved, I can think of no better reason to rejoice than this!
