Sin, The Great Addiction

The first sin was in Heaven when Lucifer rebelled against his loving creator and God. In Genesis Adam and Eve fell to the well planned actions of Lucifer. We don't know how long Lucifer had to plan and scheme in an attempt to erect a barrier between Adam, Eve and God. I imagine that Lucifer was very intelligent and had more then enough time to come up with a plan. We all know from that point on that there was a seperation between us and God. That seperation will remain until Jesus comes again. Sin became the most powerful drug in the Universe for the rest of time. Every day people everywhere in all levels of society commit sin. Sin has become so prevelent that it is no longer hidden in our society. Walk outside of any high school and you will hear children swearing, being disrespectful and using the Lord's name in vain. Drive down the interstate and you will see signs for adult bookstores, as well as "gentlemen's clubs". There is, I'm glad to say a solution to our addiction. Jesus Christ can free us from all of those little dark addictions that we don't tell people about. Jesus went to the cross to free us from our deepest darkest addictions. Jesus came so that we can have an answer to the sin addiction. Of course we will still sin, but now we have an advocate who is faithful and just to forgive us if we will just confess our sins to Him. Imagine that, all we need to do is come to the cross with our worthless pathetic dirty sins and he will take them and turn them into something that he can work with. The trade hardly seems fair, we are clearly getting the better part of the deal. The creator of the Universe, our Savior wants us to come to Him as we are so that He can change us into something that can work for His good. Imagine that, and all that we need to do is to except the Holy Spirit into our hearts and to turn away from sin and toward God. Someone said to me that we will continue to fall and to sin but the difference now that we've excepted Jesus into our hearts is that before we were walking away from God; now we are walking towards Him.

God bless
