"Bye, Bye Power of Sin"

 

“Bye, Bye Power of Sin”

 

We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives.  We are no longer slaves to sin.  For when we died with Christ we were set free from the power of sin.  And since we died with Christ, we know we will also live with Him.  We are sure of this because Christ was raised from the dead, and He will never die again.  Death no longer has any power over Him.   When He died, He died once to break the power of sin.  But now that He lives, He lives for the glory of God.      Romans 6:6-10

 

SIN has POWER over mankind, but MANKIND has NO POWER over sin.  We ALL are born with a SINFUL nature.  And that SINFUL NATURE rules the HUMAN HEART.  When a person comes to Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the REDEEMER of mankind, the ONLY ONE who has POWER over SIN, DEATH and the GRAVE, for the SALVATION of their soul, they MUST be WILLING to CRUCIFY their OLD, SINFUL NATURE in order to be SET FREE from the POWER of the SIN in their life.  When they come to Him with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, and CONFESSES their sins to Him, asking Him for His FORGIVENESS, then they will NO LONGER be SLAVES to SIN. 

 

This is possible because we die to our OLD SINFUL LIFESTYLE, and have been SET FREE from the POWER of SIN.  And since we have DIED with CHRIST, we will LIVE with HIM, for ALL ETERNITY in HEAVEN.  Our ASSURANCE is the POWER of the RESURRECTION, when Christ was raised from DEATH and the GRAVE.  HE will NEVER DIE AGAIN.   DEATH has NO POWER over HIM.  When He DIED, it was a ONE-TIME thing, and it was to BREAK the POWER of SIN.  And NOW that He LIVES, He LIVES for the GLORY of GOD.    Have you been CRUCIFIED with CHRIST?  Or Are you still under the POWER of SIN? 

 

The REPENTANT HEART is a VICTOR over the POWER of SIN, but an UNREPENTANT HEART is the LOSER and REMAINS that way throughout ETERNITY.  If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to GOD, then you are the LOSER, and your DESTINY in an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, after you are there.  In order to become a VICTOR over the POWER of SIN, you MUST WILLINGLY TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  Then you MUST ACCEPT His Gift of SALVATION, and be able to say; “BYE, BYE POWER of SIN!” and HELLO, to an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  So, do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!
