Sin Is Not Fair

Sin is crouching at the door, change your mind. Genesis 4:6-7 …“Why are you angry,” said the LORD to Cain, “and why has your countenance fallen? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you refuse to do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires you, but you must master it.” If it is hard for the righteous to be saved 1 Peter 4:18 And, “If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?” Born of the incorruptible seed 1 Peter 1:23 NLT For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God. NLT For you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God. Sin is not your nature. Romans 8:1-4 (3) For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh… God is love and that nature is in you. 1 John 4:8, Galatians 5:22-25. Acts 26:16-18 (18) To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. 2 Corinthians 5:7 Walk by faith and not by sight. Colossians 3:14-17 (14) And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. Psalm 62:1-12 Psalm 91:5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flies by day… Psalm 121:1-8 Colossians 1:13-14 1 Peter 5:5-11 (8-9) Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. 9Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith… Psalm 103:1-8 (1-4)Bless and affectionately praise the LORD, O my soul, And all that is [deep] within me, bless His holy name. Bless and affectionately praise the LORD, O my soul, And do not forget any of His benefits; Who forgives all your sins, Who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you [lavishly] with lovingkindness and tender mercy… Revelation 12:10-12 We overcome by the blood of the lamb and the word. And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying: “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of His Christ. For the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down—he who accuses them day and night before our God. They have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony. And they did not love their lives so as to shy away from death. Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea; with great fury the devil has come down to you, knowing he has only a short time.”…
