Have you ever stopped to consider that there is a vast difference between the word “SIN” and the word “SINS“? Listen to what Paul tells us in Romans 5:12 that says, “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.” Notice that Paul did not say that “SINS” entered into the world by the one man Adam. Sin itself is a very powerful persuasive force that invaded the total man when it entered into this world. The word “sins” refers to the manifestations of sin in a persons life, which are doing things that is totally against the ways and nature of God. In other words if a person steals or takes something that belongs to another person without their consent, it is referred to as an act of disobedience meaning that a sin has been committed. The confessing Christian world has been blinded from the truth that is revealed in Gods word concerning this. They teach and believe that if and when they ask God to forgive them of their sins God forgives them, but what they fail to consider is that to be forgiven of the sins they have committed, this does not remove the sin that yet indwells them. The reason that we all had sins to be forgiven of is simply because of the fact that it’s the sin that dwells within us will continues to manifest itself outwardly in our lives unless Christ intervenes in our life. Asking God to forgive us of all our sins that we have committed against him, this does not cleanse the sin from within us.
