1. SIN
RomaNS 3 : 23
“FoR aLL have SINNed aNd FaLL ShoRt oF the GLoRy oF God”.
There is’nt a single person on this earth who has not sinned.
RomaNS 6:23
FoR the waGeS oF SIN IS death."
But, for those who are willing to repent, change their ways and accept Jesus Christ's
sacrifice, the rest of the verse applies:
BUt the FRee GIFt oF God IS ”eteRNaL LIFe” IN ChRISt JeSUS oUR LoRd.
1 JohN 1: 9-10
IF we CoNFeSS oUR SINS; he IS FaIthFUL aNd JUSt to FoRGIve US oUR SINS aNd to
CLeaNSe US FRom aLL UNRIGhteoUSNeSS.
BUT, God has a way to help us out. We must acknowledge our sins and confess them
to God who will forgive us and then seek Him to help us out of our sins.
1 JohN 3: 4
eveRyoNe who SINS BReakS the Law; IN FaCt, SIN IS LawLeSSNeSS.
What is the Law?? The Law is the WORD OF GOD. If we do not obey what the word of
God says – we SIN.
matthew 15: 18-19
BUt the thINGS that Come oUt oF the moUth Come FRom the heaRt, aNd
theSe make a maN ‘UNCLeaN’. FoR oUt oF the heaRt Come evIL thoUGhtS,
mURdeR, adULteRy, SexUaL ImmoRaLIty, theFt, FaLSe teStImoNy, SLaNdeR.
JameS 1: 13-15
wheN tempted, No oNe ShoULd Say, “God IS temptING me”. FoR God CaNNot Be
tempted By evIL, NoR doeS he tempt aNyoNe.
BUt eaCh oNe IS tempted wheN, By hIS owN evIL deSIRe, he IS
dRaGGed away aNd eNtICed.
theN aFteR deSIRe haS CoNCeIved, It GIveS BIRth to SIN, aNd SIN, wheN It IS
FULL-GRowN, GIveS BIRth to death.
2. From the above verses we can see that SIN begins in our hearts [soul]. We feel
something, a message is sent to our brain and then all the evil thoughts start
growing and we act in a manner that does not please God just to get a
momentary satisfaction and to fulfill our lustful and un godly desires.
When you know you have sinned – confess and ask God for His help in order to
overcome. Do not continue in it. When we continue in SIN it becomes a
routine / habit in our life to the extent that we accept it as OK.
If you do not handle your SIN – God will expose you.
GaLatIaNS 5 19-21
the aCtS oF the SINFUL NatURe aRe oBvIoUS: SexUaL ImmoRaLIty ImpURIty &
deBaUCheRy; IdoLatRy & amBItIoN, dISSeNSIoNS, FaCtIoNS & eNvy;

pRoveRBS 28:13
he who CoNCeaLS hIS SINS doeS Not pRoSpeR, BUt whoeveR CoNFeSSeS aNd
ReNoUNCeS them FINdS meRCy.
God’s people should honestly and openly tell Jesus when we sin. Though He
knows when we sin, he wants us to admit it so He can help. The sooner we
confess, the sooner we can experience God’s forgiveness
GaLatIaNS 5 22-23
BUt the FRUIt oF the SpIRIt IS Love, Joy, peaCe, patIeNCe, kINdNeSS,
GoodNeSS, FaIthFULNeSS, GeNtLeNeSS aNd SeLF-CoNtRoL.

JohN 8:12
JeSUS SaId – “I am the LIGht oF the woRLd, whoeveR FoLLowS me wILL NeveR
waLk IN daRkNeSS, BUt wILL have the LIGht oF LIFe”
Have you truly confessed ALL your Sin’s to God and sought Him to help you
overcome. Are you walking in the Light. Is your life a testimony to others.
WALK AND LIVE a Life filled with God.
