We know that our Lord is
   → holy
   → good
   → giving
   → selfless
   → beautiful
   → helping
   → merciful
   → healing

Comparing the emotions surrounding sin with the nature of our Lord there is one over-arching point to be made: Sin is all about self while our Lord is all about others.   

When the Lord told Moses to tell pharaoh that "I Am" had sent him, He was contrasting Himself with all the pretense of pharaoh.   

Pharaoh
   → was a sinful man
   → adorned himself with gold, precious stones and finery
   → commanded men to worship and serve him
   → lived under threat of death

Our Lord
   → is holy
   → is the precious creator of beauty
   → is worthy of all worship
   → is EternalLife

Whereas pharaoh was a poser of that which is glorious and powerful, the Lord revealed Himself to pharaoh as the 'real deal'.   He was telling pharaoh that He, Creator God, is all that pharaoh imagined and desired to be.   

Sin is a poser.   It sells itself as good and satisfying while in reality it is evil generating more evil.   It is a roller-coaster of highs and lows centered on self-gratification.   It never ends well.   

Our Lord provided Adam and Eve with an innumerable host of good things to enjoy.   The tree of the knowledge of good and evil (TKGE) was the one thing that was forbidden.   

Why was it forbidden?   Because
   → It was not good.   
   → It was not satisfying.   
   → It resulted in all the emotions mentioned above
   → It resulted in animosity between man and his Creator.   
   → It resulted in Spiritual Death
   → It put man in bondage.   
   → It condemned man to Hell.   

Stepping back from the emotionalism surrounding sin and looking at it from the fundamental perspective of good and evil, we understand that it really represents a departure from life into death.   

Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be you holy: for I am the Lord, your Lord. Lev 20:7 How do we sanctify ourselves?     We choose to receive the gift of Eternal Life through our Lord Jesus Christ.      When we do so He makes us holy by imputing His righteousness to us through His indwelling Holy Spirit.      The result is that we are one with Him, experiencing the glory of His person and the benefits of all He is and has.

In him was life; and the life was the light of men. Joh 1:4 In the body of Jesus was life - the life of the Holy Spirit.     The Holy Spirit in the body of Jesus enabled Him to speak words of Truth which brought light and life to those who received it,

At the end of the day sin is deceit from the deceiver.   It is a thief which steals, kills and destroys.   

Our Heavenly Father
   → truly loves us.   
   → wants us to be free
   → wants us to experience Eternal Life.   

For the Lord is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. Psm 84:11 The love of the Lord for us is boundless.     He wants to give us the desires of our hearts.      We soon find that He and He alone satisfies us.
