SIN

Sin
Salvation cannot be dispensed, and cannot be obtained by the distribution of opiates or sugar coated candy drops. The only way to salvation is by way of the cross through acceptance of Jesus Christ as personal Lord and Savior. There is no other means, and no other mediator. “For he that calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”  This means and can only mean that a person must do three things, namely:
                1              Confess (acknowledge) he is a sinner,
                2              Conclude that he needs to forsake his sin
                3              Call upon the name of Jesus, and ask him to save him.
                Now this is where the Preacher comes in; for Scripture poses these pertinent questions.
                “ How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in    him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?” (Rom 10:14)
                As preachers called of God, it is our solemn duty to preach the untainted word and be instant in and out of season.  Sin is not a popular topic.  That is why so many preachers find it more profitable to talk about tithes and offerings than about sin.  But that is not what God wants or calls His preachers to do. There’s more sin in the world all around us than anything else.  We can try to ignore it, but it just will not go away.
                The three deadliest sin in America today are Sodomy, debauchery, and butchery. And while we try to dress them in gay and gorgeous costumes, sin like cancer is eating away at out bodies, our souls and our consciences, and leaving us nothing but empty and decaying skeletons.  The bells of liberty make a deafening din; but through it all there is still the sickening sin.
