Sin is the problem in our lives individually and collectively as the church, and that unless we know how to deal with sin we and our church will become sick and die.
Join us this Sunday at Lakeview Community Church at 10:45 a.m., for this second sermon in the “The Unstoppable Force of Truth, Love, and Righteousness.” Remember, we are having a potluck after the Sunday Service and there will be a time for sign ups for small groups.
Our reading will come from 1 John 1:5-2:2.
5 And this is the message which we have heard from him and announce unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
7 but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
1 John 2
1 My little children, these things write I unto you that ye may not sin. And if any man sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
2 and he is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.
