KNOW THE TRUTH - "Lawlessness!" October 1st, 2019
Excerpt -
1 John 3:4
“Whoever
commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.”
Since most
of us were children, we have been taught that a variety of behavior, which
we have engaged in, is sinful. Yet, there is a great deal of
misunderstanding concerning what sin really is and why we need to be
concerned about it.
As
described by the Apostle John, “sin
is lawlessness!”
Most of us
Americans, who paid attention in civics class, know that this nation is a
Republic. Unlike a Democracy, where the mob rules; or a Monarchy or
Oligarchy, where a few rule all; a Republic is chosen representatives of the
people enacting and enforcing the rule of law, these laws govern the
behavior of the citizenship, and these laws protect their freedoms. This
seems to make perfect sense in this arena; however, when it comes to the
understanding of sin, this clarity is lost.
It is lost
because from individual to individual the world’s concept of sin is as
diverse as the sands of the sea (kind of like the mob rule!). The concept of
law from man to man is subjective and unless there is a higher source to
guide; man, if left to his own devices would destroy himself.
Man cannot develop an accurate moral compass that is best for all,
without help!
