"The Genealogy of Sin"


“The Genealogy of Sin”

 

 

But each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed.  Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.          James 1:14-15

 

A person is tempted by their own evil desire that is within them.  They are then enticed or lured into carrying out their evil desire.  Then, after the DESIRE has conceived, it gives birth to SIN, and when SIN is full-grown, it gives birth to DEATH.

 

In some cases, SIN can bring about a PHYSICAL DEATH, but the most horrific part is the SPIRITUAL DEATH, which is an ETERNAL SEPARATION from God, and ALL the GOODNESS and RIGHTEOUSNESS of the presence of the LIVING GOD. 

 

The dying process begins with the progression of a TEMPTATION, which when unchecked will develop into an EVIL DESIRE, which will conceive and give birth to SIN, and when SIN has a stronghold on the person, it becomes FULL-GROWN and gives birth to DEATH, SPIRITUAL DEATH for sure. 

 

Unchecked LUST brings about SIN, UNCONFESSED SIN brings about SPIRITUAL DEATH.  When a Christian harbors UNCONFESSED SIN, it is a tragedy, because they become a DISOBEDIENT CHILD of the LIVING GOD, their witness is ruined and their relationship with God is drastically altered, and in most cases they fall into the category of those who have “SINNED unto DEATH, which results in a PHYSICAL DEATH.  Now, the TRUE CHILD of the LIVING GOD, has access to God, and can, at any time, come to Him with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, and CONFESS their SIN, and be FORGIVEN.  Then their relationship will be restored and their fellowship with God will be renewed.

 

The LOST person, who has NOT given their HEART and LIFE to God, is NOT a TRUE CHILD of the Living God, and stands in DANGER of dying a SPIRITUAL DEATH, because of their CONTINUAL rejection of God’s Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, who shed His blood for the remission of their sins.  This SIN of REJECTION brings about a SPIRITUAL DEATH, which means that a person, who is guilty of the SIN of REJECTION, and has crossed that deadline, cannot and will not be FORGIVEN.  However, if you are in this scenario, God is giving you one more opportunity, and it could be your LAST, to come to Him with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, CONFESSING your sins to Him and asking Him for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING , with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU, and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and don’t become a victim of the genealogy of SIN, but be a part of God’s genealogy and receive an ETERNITY  in Heaven.  Do it NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
