Default Devotion: Sin

SIN

Genesis 3: 7 "And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons."

I have always said that this verse is the clear evidence of the beginning of manmade religion. Adam and Eve put on themselves, fig leaves to COVER their sin. No one had to tell Adam and Eve that they had sinned, they KNEW IT! No one had to tell them the severity of their sin, THEY KNEW IT.

Today, mankind has used a church building, a denomination, a certain type of clothes they wear to HIDE their sin. Mankind has also explained away the severity of their sin by saying "NO ONE IS PERFECT."

From the very first transgression of God's way to today's transgression, SIN is just as severe. Sin is an awful thing and it is the one thing that will send a person to hell. Yes, Sin is that bad.

What are you hiding? Adam knew God, Adam knew that God is Omnipresent, Omniscient and yet he still tried to hide from God. Mankind today everywhere is doing the same thing. WHY? God knows and HE can see everybody and everything that they are doing. He knows every word that comes from your mouth, and, HE knows every thought that is generated in your mind.
The blood of Jesus is the only thing that can hide sin from a Holy God. The Blood of Christ is the only Atonement for Sin. God's way is not a cover up; it is a complete wash away!

1 Timothy 3:16
16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
God was manifested in the flesh,
Justified in the Spirit,
Seen by angels,
Preached among the Gentiles,
Believed on in the world,
Received up in glory.
