- Sin is a word the Lord chose to describe an action that misses the mark— His mark. God is perfect, and sin is anything that deviates from His expressed will and desire. Here’s the truth: sin is sin, whether you believe in Christ. Why? Because God is God (Romans 1), and any action that wrongs Him or His holy name is a sin.

Aug 16, 2024 · According to the Bible, sin is defined by God’s Law, not by human opinions. 1 John 3:4 describes sin as "lawlessness," meaning it’s a violation of God’s commandments. God’s Law reflects His holy character, and following it is essential for holy living.

Jan 4, 2022 · The true meaning of the question is “Do you believe Jesus Christ is who the Bible says He is, and are you trusting Him as your Savior?” So, do you believe in Jesus? Do you believe that Jesus is God in human form (John 1:1, 14)?

The key verse that he’s referring to goes like this: “For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins” (Hebrews 10:26). In other words, we’re beyond salvation. Now, two observations about this phrase “go on sinning deliberately” are really important. First, the word delib...
This is a correction to Josh’s assumption that all sinning is equally willing — or all human acts are equally willing — since all acts, including sin, are acts of the will. That’s true. They are acts of the will. We choose them. This text, Hebrews 10:26, is saying something more than that the sin which destroys the soul is an act of the will. Of co...
Now here’s the second thing to notice in the phrase “go on sinning deliberately” [or “willingly” or “eagerly”].” It’s that phrase “go on sinning,” which is a good translation of the present tense of the Greek verb for sin. In other words, it’s not a single act; it’s not a few acts; it’s not periodic acts. It’s rather a settled, persistent continuat...
I have two passages that stop me from saying that his reference to some kind of sanctified condition for the person who is lost means that we can have the full experience of salvation in Christ and be lost or lose it. There are two passages, Hebrews 10:14 and Hebrews 3:14. Here’s Hebrews 10:14(see what you think): “For by a single offering” — that’...
My conclusion is that the experience of sanctification referred to in the lost person of Hebrews 10:26 and 10:29is a measure of God-influenced moral renovation in a person that has been absorbed by being part of the church, professing some kind of faith, being attracted by many things about the Christian faith and Christian people, but never really...
Sin has been defined as “a word, deed, or desire in opposition to the eternal law of God.” Romans 1:18-22 elaborates on the definition of sin as the lawlessness and opposition to everything God is. Sin is what keeps us from a relationship with God (Genesis 3:6-8), and it is the cause of all the evil that is in the world.
Jan 4, 2022 · For Jesus to “become” sin, even for a moment, would mean He ceased to be God. But Scripture presents Jesus as “the same yesterday, today and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). He was and is and always will be the Second Person of the Godhead (John 1:1).
Jun 3, 2013 · They say that if you learn the secret of abiding in Christ, you will live without sin. While that may be so, John does not attribute the believer’s not sinning to the abiding life, but to the fact that he has been born of God.
Jul 18, 2024 · When a person has faith in Jesus, it means that he or she believes who Jesus is (God in human form) and trusts what Jesus has done (died and resurrected). This faith in the person and work of Christ is what saves (see Romans 10:9–10; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4).
