The answer to dealing with sin!

“Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more” Romans 5:20

The laws of the Old Covenant were enacted to demonstrate to all people that they were in rebellion against God and living for self.

The law was like a bright light exposing sin and the weak and corrupt inner nature of mankind. The law identified sin and proved that it is impossible to please God by works and sacrifices.

Where sin increased and could not be stopped, God created a perfect solution to deal with sin. It was the love of God at work to save His creation. God demonstrated His love by sending Jesus, His son, to the earth as an offering for sin.

This expression of love by God gives you the ability to be forgiven for all your sins and restored to God. The cross gives you the freedom to live a life pleasing to God.

God saw the hopelessness of life and the need for you to have a new identity. The act of confessing your faith in Jesus gives you new life. Your old self has died with Jesus on the cross and the Holy Spirit lives within you.

The cross is a watershed of new life and opens the door for you to receive the unlimited attributes of God. It is your act of faith that will bring the righteousness of God.

Sin will never have dominion over you and God will work endlessly to purify you with His nature!
