Sin - SonLight Daily Devotional for June 9

Sin
SonLight Daily Devotional Daily Devotional for June 9

Romans 1:26-27 "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was due."

The Holy Bible makes it quite clear that this type of lifestyle is sin, and needs to be repented of now. People that live in this sin are full of hate toward these verses in the Holy Bible, proving what God has said in Romans 1:29-30. People living in sin are haters of God already. They do not want to read that they are living in sin. They would rather live in their conscience of convenience, doing what is right in their own eyes.

Paul was writing to the Romans, warning them against this type of ungodly lifestyle; which is sin. Sin separates one from the love of God. Sin is satan's independent nature going against all that is godly. People can not live in a lifestyle of sin and truly be a Christian. People can not say that they love God, and live in a lifestyle of sin, and not be a liar. There is no responsibility in hate, for hate will say and do what it wants.

God loves the sinner and hates their sin. God loves the drunk but hates their sin. God loves mankind but hates their sin. Christ Jesus, because of love, died for the sins of the whole world. Christ Jesus did not die for evil. A lifestyle of sin is found in Galatians 5:19-21.
