Have you ever broken the law?

Have you ever broken a law without even knowing it? Perhaps you were in a new place where the law was not clear to you. Does that absolve you from that law? No it doesn't! As Christians we should all be aware of this but few of us are. In the Bible God gave Moses the ten commandments, a set of laws that showed us what sin is. Sin is by definition the breaking of the ten commandments. It is by this that we are convicted of our sin in the court of God. So take for example this in the Bible it says "All liars will have their place in the lake of fire." Now that means that everyone who has ever told even one lie will end up in Hell. Now just because everyone else you know has lied do you think God will change his law? No, of course not. God will judge all men(and women) on Judgement day. Because God is good and there are no men(and women) who are good. The Bible states clearly in

As it is written: "There is no one righteous, not even one;" (NIV)

As it is written, None is righteous, just and truthful and upright and conscientious, no, not one. [Ps. 14:3.] (AMP)

As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: (KJV)

So what do we do to if God has convicted us of our sins. Not just lying but all transgression of the ten commandments.

We go to Jesus. Jesus died on the cross for all humanity's sin. He paid the penalty of the Law for us. Jesus lived a life without sin. He was sent to the cross to bare the punishment of all our sin.


Remember this the Bible says in Psalm 19:7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul:

God Bless and keep you,
