    What Is Sin?

    (By Pastor Bob Hnat)

    Any transgression of God's commandments. (1 John 3:4}

    Any act done to less than the standard of the righteousness and holiness of God. (Matthew
    5:48)

    Any act done NOT for the glory of God. (1 Corinthians 10:31) Any act that falls short of the
    glory of God. (Romans 3:23)

    Any act NOT done in faith. (Romans 14:23) [Any act that is NOT done in accordance with
    the Word of God - even those acts done without any consideration of God's Word.]

    Any RIGHT act done but believing it to be WRONG. {Romans 14:14) [If I think something
    is wrong (though it may not be in God's eyes) and I do it I sin.]

    Any moment that I do not love God with ALL of my heart, ALL of my life, and ALL of my
    mind. (Matthew 22:37-38)

    Any moment that I do not love my neighbor AS MYSELF. (Matthew 22:39)

    Consider: Worry, envy, jealousy, doubt, joylessness, tearfulness, withholding tithes and
    offerings, faithlessness, selfishness, etc.

    CONSIDER CAREFULLY

    What is the greatest sin - a sin against the first and greatest commandment (Matthew
    22:37-38) or a sin against the sixth commandment (Exodus 20:13)?

    How GOOD is the GOOD NEWS that GOD put all my sins on His Son, Jesus Christ!
    (Isaiah 53:6)
