A @Christadelphians Video: The Atonement is one of the most amazing themes of the Bible, for it is "the power of God unto salvation". God reveals His wisdom and love for us in providing the Lord Jesus Christ who would not only uphold His righteousness, but be the basis for our forgiveness and redemption. Yet all of this must be more than just a set of principles - rather it must compel us as believers to develop the character and spirit of our Father. In a series of 8 studies, we look at four frames to discover the moral imperatives of the Atonement - The Bad News, The Good News, The Great News and the Amazing News. Study 2 - The Bad News: The old needs to pass away (Part 2). How sin entered the world and resulted in a fallen race, in need of reconciliation and redemption. Importance of understanding the mortality of man and his proneness to sin. SummaryThis video explores the moral imperatives of God's atonement, focusing on how sin entered the world and its profound impact on creation and humanity.Highlights

Sin. The idea no one likes. We either mock the idea of sin through commercials encouraging us to indulge in sin (Eat that extra piece of chocolate!) – or – sin is named as an abusive idea. What could be worse than telling someone they are a sinner? That there is something wrong with them? What if our discomfort with sin is because we have misunderstood what the idea actually is? What is – belief in sin – actually set us free? What if this idea was the key to unlocking a new and joy-filled life. Join us as we spend the next several weeks unpacking – the surprising freedom of belief in sin. That should make any curious person interesting in asking – Who was Jesus of Nazareth? What was it about Jesus – that made people from all over the world, from all backgrounds – find their deepest longings met in Him?
FREE 5 Day Mountain Moving Faith Devotional https://krisreece.com/5-day-faith-devotional-series/Do you ever feel like you've got a bullseye on your back? Like the kingdom of darkness got together for a meeting and decided to focus all of their attention on YOU? There are times when it seems like the enemy's attacks are relentless, but did you know that there are times when he finds it most advantageous to strike against you? In fact, there are 4 occasions that he will strike nearly EVERY TIME! Occasion #1: SinSin is an open door for Satan and his demons to have full access to your life. While that may not be your desire or intention, Isaiah 59:2 reminds us that our sin separates us from God.When it comes to the enemy's attacks, there are legal and illegal entries. Illegal entries are where Satan overstepped his bounds and you can go to God and ask for deliverance and restitution. Legal entry, on the other hand, happens when you gave permission—whether you wanted to or not. And sin is a legal entry point. Sin however, isn't limited to big ticket items like adultery and murder. According to scripture, ALL sin is an open door for Satan. That's why, the longer you sin, the harder it is to get him to back off. So how do you slam the door? The good news is that God gave us an easy way to kick Satan to the curb. This doesn't mean that he won't stop trying to influence you (more on this later), but it does mean that you can close the door to his infiltration. You can slam the door to Satan through repentance. 1 John 1:9 says if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. When you confess you sins and turn from them, you give Satan his eviction notice Occasion #2: Breakthrough is ComingRight at the beginning of Jesus' public ministry, Satan attacked Jesus in the wilderness. And when Jesus had been baptized, just as He came up from the water, suddenly the heavens were opened to Him and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on Him. And a voice from heaven said, "This is My Son, the Beloved, with whom I am well pleased." Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the Devil. (Matthew 3:16,17;4:1) Jesus took every one of Satan's temptations and knocked them out of the park. Not just because he was Jesus, but because of his desire to please the Father and fulfill his purpose. If we keep our eyes fixed on pleasing Him and fulfilling our purpose, we too can resist whatever Satan throws at us. How you respond to demonic attacks during these critical times can be the difference between breakthrough and another trip around the mountain. Occasion #3: TemptationSatan will never stop trying to attack you. It's what he does. So praying that he stops is not a prayer that will get answered. And playing the victim because he's tempting you doesn't take you off the hook. Instead, you can pray that you don't fall into that temptation. Your job is to RESIST the devil's temptations. Remember 1 Corinthians 10:13—no temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation He will also provide the way of escape, so that you may be able to endure it. Temptation comes in many forms, from desires to difficult people. Your job is to RESIST. Not rationalize. Not justify. RESIST.&n

Benson & Sean are back and better than ever with a brand-new Pentecost series on.....Sin! While many might cringe or be embarrased, even, to broach this subject - the Bible is crystal clear that sin is a major issue in our lives, and in the world. The problem often is though, we love to point out and try to tackle the sin in the world, but we don't want to tackle the sin in our own lives. It's not always easy, but it's always worth it. In this series, we'll spend the week diving into Proverbs 8, and learning some lessons on the best ways to engage, acknowledge, tackle, and avoid sin - all while growing closer to God along the way.

I must confess the strangeness of the Sunday we're having here. It's Mother's Day today and our text in view is Genesis 19, which is the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. One would not be out of bounds to ask ‘What does Mother's Day have to do with Sodom and Gomorrah?' To which my answer…… Continue reading Genesis 19 – Sin, Sin, and More Sin. Oh My!
Sin. The idea no one likes. We either mock the idea of sin through commercials encouraging us to indulge in sin (Eat that extra piece of chocolate!) – or – sin is named as an abusive idea. What could be worse than telling someone they are a sinner? That there is something wrong with them? What if our discomfort with sin is because we have misunderstood what the idea actually is? What is – belief in sin – actually set us free? What if this idea was the key to unlocking a new and joy-filled life. Join us as we spend the next several weeks unpacking – the surprising freedom of belief in sin. That should make any curious person interesting in asking – Who was Jesus of Nazareth? What was it about Jesus – that made people from all over the world, from all backgrounds – find their deepest longings met in Him?

Join your FREE 5 Day Mountain Moving Faith Devotional https://krisreece.com/5-day-faith-devotional-series/Have you been saved by grace but still feel like you're living in a chokehold? In Galatians 5:1–15, the apostle Paul discusses the nature of freedom in Christ, beginning with an admonition to “stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.” Paul contends that Jesus Christ came to set believers free. But did you know that it's your job to stay free? I'm not talking about your salvation, I'm talking about your freedom.In John 11, we see the story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. He had been dead and buried for four days when Jesus came and called in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!” And Lazarus came up from the dead. What a miracle! Lazarus was dead and now he was alive. But there was still a small matter to tend to--the grave clothes. So Jesus said, “Take off the grave clothes and let him go.” So even though Lazarus was alive, he was still bound up in grave clothes. The miracle of raising him from the dead would have been enough to knock anyone's socks off, BUT what kind of life would it have been still bound up in his burial garments? So, when Jesus comes to set us free, I've heard it referred to as happening in three stages: dead, delivered, and dangerous. Lazarus was dead. Many people who come to Christ are content to be saved from their old dead life. But few go to the next phase—deliverance, or breaking free from the old clothes that bound you up. Could you imagine if Lazarus said, “Thanks for raising me from the dead Jesus, but that's good. I'll take it from here. Don't touch my grave clothes, don't try and change my old mindset. Let me hold on to this sin (it's just tiny vice)….I mean, after all, I've been through, I deserve to be happy.” If he had, He'd be considered saved and set free but not delivered. In other words he'd still be in bondage. But because he allowed Jesus to strip him of his grave clothes, he was now free to become dangerous. His personal testimony was so powerful that it transformed countless lives for Christ. It was so dangerous, they set out to kill him…. Dangerous are those Christians who can't keep their testimony to themselves. They run free to save others. They don't follow trends. And they certainly aren't swayed by the toxic opinions of others. These dangerous Christians are more concerned with their character than their comfort. They're more concerned with being biblically correct, then culturally correct. In other words, they're dangerous. So how do you live free? How do you take your salvation and become dangerous? You first have to begin to recognize why you're still in bondage. Number 1: Sin Sin is a power that enslaves. From Adam and Eve's first sin, we have since been born into it. But just because we don't have a choice about living in a sin-filled world, it doesn't mean we don't have a choice as to what we do with it. We are called to no longer be slaves to sin but slaves to righteousness. More cycles could be broken if we just dealt with the main issue at hand: sin. Don't freak out when sin comes knocking on your door. As a Christian, you will always be under attack. But 1 Corinthians 10:13 reminds us that the temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, He will show you a way out so that you can endure. And here's the even better news. Jesus br
This week, we continue our discussion about sin, defining how sin is personal.
It's hard to hear the truth about who we really are, and it takes true humility to agree with God when it hurts to admit it. Is pride keeping you from changing today?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Catechism Class: LD21C Q56 The Forgiveness of SinsIn this lesson, we move on to a doctrine that is core to the Christian Faith - the forgiveness of sins.Our works, even our most righteous works, are as polluted as filthy rags in the sight of God, and deserve only eternal condemnation. Everything we do is sinful, because we are sinners, and those sins cannot be overlooked by God. But they can be forgiven, through God's grace alone.So, our catechist asks us, “What do you believe concerning the forgiveness of sins?” The answer we must give is: I believe that God, because of Christ's satisfaction, will no more remember my sins, nor my sinful nature, against which I have to struggle all my life, but will graciously grant me the righteousness of Christ, that I may never come into condemnation.In this episode we look at how God's perfect justice is fully SATISFIED by Christ's atoning work, and we deal with the fact that even though we are forgiven we continue to sin, talk about the MORTIFICATION OF SIN, and we learn about Christ's ACTIVE OBEDIENCE, - His perfect, sinless life, which has been imputed to us at the cross. Finally we note that for those whose sins are forgiven, there is NO CONDEMNATION.Read the NOTES HERE. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Whenever a new book of Scripture is introduced, I want to produce an episode like this. The goal is threefold—support, Overview, and Context. Support. I want you to know that the Bible Breakthrough is a production of the Breakthrough Media Network, which is entirely funded by Breakthrough Ministries. Breakthrough Ministries is a nonprofit, faith-funded Christian outreach organization committed to reaching the lost. Jesus left all of us, all of his followers, with the charge to make him known to all nations. Consider the significance of the following statement here. Working together as the body of Christ, those who take the message of Christ, Word is needed, and those, like you, who send the messengers both receive the blessings of joining God in his work around the world. Please click on the donation link in the description notes of this episode to support the work of this ministry. One-time gifts are needed and appreciated; however, Breakthrough asks that you consider becoming a committed monthly supporter. Regardless, our God is sovereign, and He owns everything, so pray and ask God if He wants you to support this work. Of course, all donations are tax-deductible. Overview The Book of Genesis contains seven mega themes: Beginnings: Genesis explains the beginnings of many important realities, the universe, the earth, people, sin, and God's plan of salvation. God teaches us that the earth is well-made, and it's good., People are special to God, and they're unique. God creates and sustains all life. Disobedience: People always face great choices, and disobedience occurs when people choose, not when they choose not to follow God's plan of living. Genesis explains why people are evil. They choose to do wrong. Even the great Bible heroes failed God, and they disobeyed. Sin: Sin happens when we disobey God. Living God's way is what makes life productive and fulfilling. Promises: God makes promises to help and protect people. These kinds of promises are called covenants. God kept his promises then, and he keeps them now. He promises to love us. He promises to accept and forgive us. Obedience: The opposite of sin is obedience, obeying God. And when we do, it restores our relationship with him. The only way to enjoy the benefits of God's promises is to obey him. Prosperity: Prosperity is deeper. The more material wealth, the more prosperity and fulfillment we read about in the Bible because of obedience. When people obey God, they find peace with him. They find peace with others, and we find peace with ourselves. Israel: God started the nation of Israel to have dedicated people who keep his ways alive in the world and proclaim to the world what he's like and prepare the world for the birth of Christ. Context God's looking for people today to follow him. And we are to proclaim God's truth and to love all nations, not just our own. We must be faithful to carry out the mission that God has given us. Now, what can we expect to glean from this book? There are many things that we could discuss, but I've included three topics to consider: 1. Satan has a plan against us. 2. The flood. Did this really happen? 3. Evolution. What does the Bible say? No matter where you are on this journey, be encouraged. I want you to know that there is hope. No matter how dark the world seems, God has a plan. No matter how insignificant or useless you might feel. God loves you. He wants to use you in His plan; no matter how sinful and separated from God you feel like you are, His salvation is available to you. I look forward to our next meeting together as we dive into the Holy Scriptures and discover the first Era called Beginnings.

In this sermon on John 8 Dr. Jim Keck will propose that the word “sin” is central to the Christian faith but has become problematic by endless misusage. The church has called some things “sin” that are not sin - like playing cards, dancing or being gay. And so it has lost credibility. But it is essential that the church be able to speak to the existential reality of an imperfect humanity. This sermon will suggest that it would clarify our understanding if every time we see the word “sin” in our tradition we transpose it in our minds to “self-centeredness” and that our Christ desires to move us from selfishness to being other centered.
We define the packed word that is "sin". It's often a word associated with bondage, but we explore the attitude followers of Christ should have regarding sin. It might not be what you would expect. Let's talk about it!
