REMEMBER!

WE ARE BORN WITH A SINFUL NATURE!
13.

SIN IS THE REASON WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO!

14.

OUR SINFUL NATURE

MARKS EVERYTHING WE THINK, SAY, AND DO!
15.

IT GUIDES

OUR CRAVINGS, OUR RESPONSE TO AUTHORITY, AND OUR DECISION MAKING!
16.

IT ALTERS

OUR VALUES, DIRECTS OUR HOPES AND DREAMS, AND SHAPES EVERY INTERPRETATiON WE MAKE!
17.

WE DEAL WITH MUCH MORE THAN

SUFFERING, DISAPPOINTMENT, DISEASE, AND DEATH!
18.

OUR DEEPEST PROBLEM IS NOT

EXPERIMENTAL, BIOLOGICAL, OR RELATIONAL!
19.

IT IS MORAL

AND IT ALTERS EVERYTHING!
20.

SIN PRODUCES

REBELLION!
21.

REBELLION IS THE INBORN TENDENCY TO GIVE IN TO THE LIES OF AUTONOMY, SELF-SUFFICIENCY, AND SELF-FOCUS!

22.

SIN PRODUCES

FOOLISHNESS!
23.

FOOLISHNESS BELIEVES THAT THERE IS NO PERSPECTIVE, INSIGHT, THEORY, OR “TRUTH” MORE RELIABLE THAN OUR OWN! IT BUYS INTO THE LIE THAT WE KNOW BETTER!

24.

ROMANS 1

25.

SIN RENDERS US INCAPABLE OF DOING WHAT GOD HAS ORDAINED US TO DO!

26.

“EVERY INCLINATION OF THE HEART WAS EVIL”

27.

WHAT IS YOUR VIEW OF GOD?

28.

God is often presented in Scripture as the king.

29.

“The Lord has established his throne in heaven, and his kingdom rules over all”

PSALM 103:19

30.

Daniel 4:35 says, “He does as he pleases with the powers of heaven and the peoples of the earth. No one can hold back his hand or say to him: ‘What have you done?’”

31.

THAT IS TO SAY: HE MADE EVERYTHING, IT IS ALL HIS, AND HE CONTINUES TO REIGN.
