OUR PROBLEM: SI N GETS I N TH E WAY
God did not make us robots to mindlessly love and obey him. Instead, he gave us a brain and freedom of choice. But we often choose to disobey God and go our own selfish ways. This is called sin, and it pushes us away from God.
TH E BI BLE SAYS... “All have sinned and are not good enough to share God’s divine greatness.” Romans 3:23 “It is your sins that separate you from your God. The Lord turns away from you when he sees them.” Isaiah 59:2
