What Is Sin?

In this world of gray, black and white still remains, for those who adhere to the Bible. Sin is lawlessness and there is no way around it. It is not a mere mistake. It is no faultless decision. It is transgression. Period.

Romans 4:15 “For the law brings wrath, but where there is no law there is no transgression.”

If we remove Father’s law, what defines sin? There would be no more sin. There would be no black and white and all is up to personal discretion? One could be as extreme as he desires and justify it entirely. Why? Most believe that the Torah is done away with, therefore we’re left to determine sin on our own. What is sin *to you* is not sin *to me.*

Welcome to this present moment, friends.  Anything goes and the Garden deception churns on for yet another generation. Our verse today describes “lawlessness” as violation; contempt; wickedness. Although we want to just the paintbrush of “grace” all over this, a humble man must yield to it entirely and admit that we have inherited a belief system of lawlessness.

The fruit on the tree is evidence that this is not working. So what do we do? We “teshuvah”… we return.  We find the ancient, good way and walk in it. We remember Father’s ways and begin to learn anew, as children who have had no teacher.

May we not continue to perpetuate the cycle of the Garden. “Did Yahweh *really* demand that you be under such burdensome restrictions? A good ‘God’ would never put such demands upon His children. Be free!!!!”

The Torah of Yahweh is “good… *if* one uses it lawfully.” Selah.
