Sin leads to death

Sin is not just a list of things God has arbitrarily determined to be against. Sin is bad. Even if there was no God, sin would still be bad. God is against sin because it hurts people. The Word of God is clear that sin is deadly. All sin eventually brings forth death.  Sin brings forth death, when it is fully grown. Sin is also deceptive. It can sometimes tantalize by offering pleasure for a season.

 "Do you not know that if you present yourselves to anyone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey,either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness"  ( ROMANS 6:16) ?

But wait there is good news if we are quick to confess our sins and turn from our ways God is faithful to forgive us of our sins. Sin separates us from God and without God the price of Sin is eternal death. God created heaven for mankind but if we can confess our sins and turn from sin and accept Christ as our Lord and Savior.  God is against sin because it hurts people.

Whose first in your life

Christians can lose perspective and put other things before God, such as wealth, success, pleasure, or even family. A wise man/woman will always put God first. God is worthy. He deserves first place in our lives. God says He will honor those who honor Him (1 Samuel 2:30). When you put God first you will be blessed.   Making  God first priority in your daily life, let every decision you make be directed by the Holly Spirit. Seek God's for He tells us that we will find Him. Let us give thanks to God for every blessing that we receive daily from waking up and  get you safely through your day, for each bite of food your able to digest, to being able to earn a salary. Take time and read the Word of God.

 "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,
and all these things shall be added to you" ( MATTHEW 6:33).



In the computer world we often say "garbage in garbage out",  mean what you put into machine your going to get that out, So as Christians what are we  putting into our hearts and into our lives???
