Sin Is Death

Good Morning!! In a nutshell, the scene of Adam and Eve’s sin in the Garden of Eden provides a perspective of many vital truths, that are further explored and expanded upon throughout the remainder of Scripture,...we see the devil's desire to undermine our faith in God. We've even allowed him to convince us that God’s protections are little more than restrictive buzz-kills.

but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die."—Genesis 2:17 (NIV)

As we gaze at the sickening sight of perfection being seduced into rebellion, the most poignant reminder, is the fact that even the seemingly smallest sins have enormous and eternal and horrific consequences. There is no such thing as "getting away" with sin,...every sin has its own built-in, unavoidable calamity. And the greatest tragedy of every sin is that it leads to separation from God.

Each sin leads to death, a separation from the Truth and the Life that is only found in Jesus.

Each time we are faced with temptation, we have the opportunity to stand firm and nurture our fellowship with Christ, or to waiver and wreck our relationship with Him.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
