the problem of Sin

 

Understanding Sin begins with who God is:

·       The Creator and Holy One 

·       Romans 1: 18-21

·       Genesis 1-2

 

Then we must understand who we are:

·       the created 

·       Romans1:21

·       Genesis 2-3

 

Punishment for sin is death Romans 1: 28-32 

note: the degree of evil is NOT the issue, the existence of rebellion is.

the standard is not comparison to others, but total submission to God.

 

Salvation from sin requires submission to the Creator through  

·       repentance – recognition of sin, turning

·       Lordship of Jesus

·       Romans 10:9-10
