He has been manifested to put away sin
by the sacrifice of Himself. (Hebrews 9:26)

Sin can take many forms: from the occasional fall to the destructive habits that control our life. It is a serious matter, that requires a candid and effective approach based on the time-tested wisdom of the Bible and sound Christian values.  Here we offer you in straightforward and plain language a series of articles that talk openly and frankly about our sinfulness and how in Christ we can find forgiveness and brake our chains.

What Is Sin?

People sometimes ask us to explain what the Bible means when it speaks of sin. When they ask about the nature of sin and God's purpose with us, they are asking about a truly cosmic subject.

The Angel on My Shoulder

How's your conscience - honed to a fine point or dull from lack of use? Let's pray the Holy Spirit will sharpen our sense of right and wrong so we may live lives of integrity.

Eyes That Do Not See

Have you ever looked at something so many times you stopped seeing it? We do this in many areas of life. We develop habits-sometimes obnoxious ones-and we don't even notice what we're doing.

Getting a Grip on Repentance

Many are caught in a vicious cycle of deepening frustration and despair as their turning away from sin is found to be anything but "complete." What is real repentance? What does it mean for us? How do we attain it?

Self-Justification or Real Justification?

We all do it. We do something wrong, and then justify ourselves. But does that really help? How do we find true justification?

Salvation

Rescue! Salvation is a rescue operation. To understand salvation, we need to know what the problem was, what God did about it and how we respond to it.
