“Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. ...” - I Corinthians 6:9

We live in a world where people overlook sin. They are unwilling to accept their sinful state. If men and women are basically good and not sinners under the wrath of God, then why do men preach the gospel? Then, why did Jesus die on the cross? Do not be deceived. According to what David says in Psalm 51:5, surely all of us are sinful at birth, sinful from the time we were conceived in our mother’s womb. Romans 3:23 says, “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” There is no one in this world who can say that he is not a sinner. Sin originates in our thoughts, corrupts our minds and leads us to do evil. It separates us from God eternally.

So, dear friends, do not treat sin casually.  Do not think that it is harmless and try to get away with it.  Look at what David did when he committed adultery with Bethsheba. He could have easily buried the matter being a powerful King.  But when the Lord convicted him, he confessed that he sinned against Him.  Romans 6:23 says, ”The wages of sin is death.”  A sinner has to face eternal condemnation – there is no escape.  It is something serious.  So, repent from your sinful ways. Only the blood of Jesus can deliver you from this bondage. So, draw near the Cross.  Be cleansed by the blood of Jesus and start a brand new life.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, so far I have never given a serious thought of living a holy life. I have been sinning, taking things very lightly. Forgive me. Wash me by the blood of Jesus. Accept me as Your child. Let me start all over again. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
