' Sin = what? '

What is Sin?

A lot of people in the world today, especially the youth, put sin in a category where it should not be. What do I mean by that? Well, today sin is categorised with fun, a good time, enjoying ones self. Which is what Satan has done to effectively get and keep young people away from God. When you truly understand the essence of sin, the Christian pathway will become  a bit easier to travel.

Sin as defined by the dictionary is the transgression of the divine Law, or a reprehensible action.
When you really look at it sin is sooo much more than breaking a law. The essence of sin is much deeper much more sinister than just that.

We were perfect God made us perfect in every way. We were immortal, when we were made there was no end sight, God made us and everything around us to live for ever. One person decided to try sin. One person decided to test drive sin, and  when she did, it was automatically internalised and rotted her and everything else from the inside out.

I think of sin as a curse. Picture it. Humanity in the form of Adam and Eve had a choice, we chose sin and immediately we started to die.  Right away what was immortal became mortal, what was supposed to always be has an end. ... Listen to yourself  breathe for a minute .. no really stop and listen. With every one of those gulps of air you die. Every morning you wake up thinking you have new life, you don't your one step closer to your expiration date, your one day closer to death. Right now life is an oxymoron because with every moment that you live you die. This is what sin has done to you.

With every year crime , violence , hatred, drug abuse, sexual abuse, sickness, Hurricanes  Tornadoes, earthquakes, famine and war grew more and more intense. Every day leaves drop of the trees, a flower blossoms and dies, someones mother dies, someones sister is raped, some child is molested and I can go on and on...... This is what sin has done to the world.

There is nothing good, fun or jovial about sin. That's why Jesus  pleads with us to repent of our sins and then to go and sin no more! He calls us to a life free of sin, he calls us to a life of quality, happiness and purity in him. How can something that is Killing you be too good to give up.  That's the equivalent of someone who has cancer being handed and actual cure but refusing to take it."Naw man I'm cool.. this junk right here, this cancer right here, its just too good to give up."(o.O) Jesus understands the toxicity of sin and now so do you.

Hold you head up high and live the Christians life of quality and purity with a satisfied smile on your face, because because despite what many believe... just look around you, Sin ≠ fun.

The Clock of Your Existence.

Have you ever wonder what time it is, on the clock of your existence.

Every where around me I see people dying. Young and old, family and friends, educated and uneducated, rich and the poor yet  to most of us its not yet real. We still live like tomorrow is promised, as if the power of death is on our pocket  and we're holding the reigns with death on our leash. 

The clock of your existence is ticking. I'll never forgot this one guy lets call him John Grey. He had an accident and died one semester. Sat beside him every class, never knew... never would have expected that his time was almost up. No one in that class would have ever guess that this guy who is answering the question or this guy your sitting next to, your FRIEND who you've known forever, he just  doesn't have another day left. He had plans for School, he had plans for a career, he had plans with his girl , there was just no more time left on his clock.

How many of us have plans that out date our existence?

That's a scary thought, that's why no matter how young you are you got to live a meaningful life. There is no time for fear, doubt or self pity. Let go of that bad relationship, let go of that fear of rejection, let go of that desperation for approval from man. Because at the end of it all you would have failed at life, if all you can show for our life is you 20K tweets, half of a degree, and some swag.

                                      

Make your existence count. God says 'But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.(Isaiah 40:31). Check him. Let Him show you the mighty things that you will accomplish in Him. Let Him tell you about the great things that will happen because of you.  Refuse! to live an unfulfilled life, don't allow the clock to stop ticking before you allow God to do those mighty things through you. So stop right now. Ask God to reveal to you where He wants you to go, what He wants you to do, and DON"T STOP ASKING until its clear to you.

 Above your head is an unseen clock,and it's ticking. Tickity Tock.
