God’s WARNINGS to His BACs
about the dangers of sinning
● “Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever
commits sin is a slave of sin.” (John 8:34)
● “Don’t you realize that you become the slave of whatever you choose to obey?
You can be a slave to sin, which leads to (spiritual) death, or you can choose to
obey God, which leads to righteous living
(i.e. righteousness).” (Romans 6:16)
● “For if you live according to the flesh,
you will die” (Romans 8:13)
● “Do you not know that the unrighteous (sinners) will not inherit the kingdom of God?” (1 Corinthians 6:9)
● “those who practice such things (sins)
will not inherit the kingdom of God.”
(Galatians 5:21)
● “no (sinner) … has any inheritance
in the kingdom of Christ and God.”
(Ephesians 5:5)
● “for because of these things (sins)
the wrath of God comes upon the sons
of disobedience.” (Ephesians 5:6)
● “Little children, let no one deceive you … In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does NOT practice righteousness is NOT of God” (1 John 3:7-10)
God’s ANTIDOTE for any sins
committed by His precious BACs
● “But if we confess our sins to him,
he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins
and to cleanse us from all wickedness (unrighteousness).” (1 John 1:9)
“This is an extremely important verse …
all men need to be repeatedly purified from
all unrighteousness – from all their sins …
We must confess our sins and turn from them …
We must also confess them with our actions …
(John) is talking here about repentance …
we must hate our sins and turn from them.
This is true repentance.”
(The Applied New Testament Commentary,
1996, Dr. Thomas Hale, medical missionary)
● Paul wrote this below to the Corinthian church concerning his previous letter (1 Corinthians),
in which he had rebuked them … they really needed to repent to continue to be saved !!!
“the pain (from Paul’s rebuke) caused you to repent and change your ways. It was the kind of sorrow God wants His people to have, so you were not harmed by us in any way. For the kind of sorrow God wants us
to experience leads us away from sin and results in salvation.” (2 Corinthians 7:8-9)
● And Paul chastises them below for
NOT repenting of their habitual sins …
“And I will be grieved because many of
you have not given up your old sins.
You have not repented of your impurity, sexual immorality, and eagerness for
lustful pleasure.” (2 Corinthians 12:21)
“all people are under the power of sin.” (Romans 3:9)
