Sin Is Not A Mistake

“Jesus didn’t die for our imperfections. He didn’t die for our mistakes. God brushes off our mistakes and imperfections just like we do, even more easily, in fact.

Sin is not a mistake. Our sin is our willing unlawfulness,our purposeful breaking of God’s law. In attitude and in deed, we rebel against God, and we have for that reason forfeited our right to live. We deserve to die for our sins. That’s what the death of Jesus is for. For our deliberate unlawfulness.”

- David Hansen

I ask you to put on Christianity like a pair of spectacles and look at the world with it. See what power it has to explain what we know and see.
