THE PAIN OF SIN James 1:15

Sin is the act of choosing not to trust in GOD, but trust in OURSELVES.

We give glory to God when we trust him to do what he has promised to do especially when all human possibilities are exhausted. Faith glorifies God. That is why God planned for faith to be the way we are justified.

John Piper

FAITH :

Belief through ACTIO

N

The Foundation

of our relationship to God is one of

TRUST

We are all born with natural, internal

DESIRES

SALVATION … We try to EARN IT ourselves

PLEASURE … We try to OBTAIN IT ourselves

POWER… We try to CONTROL IT Ourselves

Sin, when it is full

grown, gives birth

to DEATH

. James 1:15

Every minute that we

stand by and don’t speak out we invite

more and more suffering into their lives…
