Or they figure simple practices like going to church, contributing to ministries, and other good deeds allows them to sin without repentance.

The Sin Nature

The Truth Barista ·

2024/12/13

Fallen people have a warped nature that’s prone to sin. That sin nature compels people to rebel against God’s standard of who we are to be and how we are to live. But according to the Bible, that fallen nature changes when a person is transformed inside by God’s power. However, Christians still struggle with the urge to sin (do things our way) and many pastors blame it on our “sin nature.” What is the truth?Frothy Thoughts with the Truth BaristaVisit HighBeam Ministry, The Truth BaristaCheck out the
