SinEffect

For those InChrist there is no Condemnation (Rom 8:1.) In other words, Sin has no Power to separate Believers from God or produce Condemnation in TheJudgment.

Does this mean that Sin is impotent? No.

The soul that sins, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. - Eze 18:20

The first sentence in this verse is SpiritualLaw that is inviolate. The latter part interprets this Law with respect to Guilt but not with respect to Consequences. Our Children are affected by our Sins even though they are not guilty before God for our Sins.

OriginalSin resulted in all of Adam and Eve's offspring being corrupted through Physical and Spiritual DNA.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. - Rom 6:23

The Sin that Condemns to the LakeOfFire is rejection of Jesus Christ.
The Gift of God is EternalLife: Remission of Sins, Regeneration and SpiritBaptism.

We all know that there is Physical Death and Spiritual Death. Adam and Eve did not Physically Die when they sinned. However, they Spiritually died immediately.

When a person Sins, whether Believer or Unbeliever, the result is an aspect of Death. Somethings shrinks or shrivels instead of growing when Sin occurs.

God gives us EternalLife when we Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. That Gift is irrevokable. However, if we let Sin Reign in our mortal bodies we will suffer the Consequences of that Sin which will destroy our Physical lives, our testimonies and our Walk with God.

Instead of us living a Victorious, Productive Life with Treasure laid up in Heaven, we will be Saved as by Fire.

Know you not, that to whom you yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants you are to whom you obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? - Rom 6:16

A Christian can become a Servant of Sin but it is Foolish to do so.

The LawOfGod has built in Rewards and Punishments.

There are Consequences to Sin that cannot be avoided. Those Consequences are always negative, destructive, tending toward Death.

Furthermore Sin revels in Darkness, Deception and Confusion.

This is why God hates Sin. He is Life. He is Light. He is Truth. He is Wisdom.

Come now, and let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. - Isa 1:18

Interestingly, we find God wanting man to Reason with Him. Why? Because what God determined to do makes no sense to the Religious Mind. So, God wants us to listen very carefully to His Words and reconsider previous positions and thinking.

What is the issue that we need to seriously Meditate on in order to grasp?
It is the issue of GraceThroughFaith in the Finished Work of Christ Jesus.

God is saying that our Sins are deep, dark scarlet stains but by virtue of what Christ Jesus did in His Sacrifice and Victory over Death, Hell and the Grave, we are now as white as snow.
In God's eyes we are Perfect InChrist. This is the amazing Truth of the unadulterated Gospel.

If you know someone who has mixed Grace and Legalism into their faith, Reason with them with this verse so they can be FreeIndeed.

This wonderful verse of promise speaks to the potential that Christ provided for us to be BornAgain and become new Spirit beings with no Guilt.

However, the Mind and the Body are not perfected when we are BornAgain. The Mind must be Transformed and the Body must come under subjection to the Spirit in order to experience AbundantLife. (See SpiritSalvation and SoulSalvation for more.)

The Unbeliever has the Guilt of Sin and is in Bondage to Sin. This results in the rapid deterioration of their life (wages of Sin). The more Sin that is committed, the quicker and more drastic is the deterioration.

For such an Unbeliever, this is the InconvenientTruth of their existence.
