A Serial Mistake Maker
July 28
Yesterday's She Reads Truth post held this quote...
"I like to think I'm not so much a sinner as a serial mistake-maker."
Most of us are slow to call ourselves sinners. Yet, Romans 3:23 says, "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Romans 6:23 takes the issue a step further..."The wages of sin are death."
"If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."
1 John 1:8-9
Yesterday, our beach was filled with over a 100 people who came to witness the baptisms of a dozen people from our church. Each of the individuals being baptized have acknowledged their sin and need their need for a savior and professed Jesus as that Savior. Until we see how holy God is, we don't see our sin as clearly as we should.
