Sins (Word for the Day)

You may be wondering why I would add the word sins to the post. Most everyone has an idea what sin is. But I felt that it was good to see what the Greek word meant not just the English idea. Actually it is pretty much the same.

How To Put Information Into Action

Jesus gave himself for our wrong doing, for our missing the mark, and to be without a share in the kingdom of God. So when it comes to making a choice in what action we are going to take in what is before us are we going to sin  or are we going down the path of rightness and honour?
