Sin; Reality, Results, Cure 

I hate to keep sounding like a broken record, but, WOW another great Sunday! The first Sunday of every month we have a potluck and this Sunday we also had a business meeting following, so this has been an extremely long day.
The lesson today dealt with how in our society today and in the past 20-50 years there has been a societal push away from personal responsibility. People sin and in our day they are told "Oh,t it is not your fault," that you are this way or did this or that. Instead they are told to blame issues to their genetics, the upbringing everything but being told that they need to take responsibility for their own actions. Scripture is very clear we will have to account for our own actions, for the believer they will give an account for what they have done with their new life in Christ. For the unbeliever they will give an account of their sin. One thing is for sure this world wants you and I to believe that sin is just some outdated, antiquated idea, but the truth is that Sin is a reality, and it has most dire results, it will cost everything eventually, including the very souls of those who reject the free gift offered by God, which takes me to the cure. In short Jesus is the cure to the sin problem.
Well, like I said it has been an extremely long day so I am going to end this post this way. John 3:16 is probably the most quoted verse in all of Scripture, but most people do not know the following verse which has the power of verse 16, so I will leave you with John 3:17 "For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him."
