Forgiveness is not the end of the story — it’s the beginning. Jesus didn’t just die to get us out of hell; He rose again to bring us into a new kind of life — one not ruled by shame, fear, or defeat, but by freedom, joy, and victory. This last part of our journey…

We’ve followed sin from its definition to its origin, effects, and exposure through the Law. And by now, the picture is clear: we are powerless to fix what’s broken. We cannot save ourselves. But we are not left without hope. God Himself provides the remedy. That remedy is not a new law, not a better…

By now, we’ve seen what sin is, where it came from, and what it does. The natural next question is: What can fix it? What can restore the separation, silence the shame, and undo death? In the Old Testament, God gave His people the Law—a holy standard, written in commandments, rituals, and practices. But the…

Sin doesn’t just sit in the past as a theological concept—it moves, multiplies, and manifests in real ways. Its impact is personal, relational, and universal.

At its core, sin is a rupture in relationship—between us and God, between us and others, and even within ourselves. It is rebellion, yes, but also disconnection. It…

This series, “Understanding Sin — From Brokenness to Redemption,” is not a finger-pointing exercise. It’s a journey. Together, we’ll explore what sin really is, where it comes from, and what it does to us—and more importantly, how God responds to it. Part 1: What Is Sin? — More Than Just Bad Behavior Part 2: The…
