Sin and Sins

By: Minister E. J. Kolenda

There is a difference between sin and sins.

[1 Corinthians 15:56] “The sting of death is sin.”

Death is satan’s nature. Adam and Eve were stung by satan and poison was injected into
man so both Adam and Eve now had both good and evil in their nature.

The sin that separates man from GOD is called the Adamic sin. Adam and Eve’s sin brought
death with it. That sin separated them from GOD. It is the mixture of part GOD’S creation
and now polluted by the injection of satan’s nature. It takes only this one sin to separate
all of mankind after them from GOD.
[Job 25:4; Job 14:1-4; Psalms 51:5; Romans 3:23]

Adam and Eve’s sin passed upon all mankind or was inherited by all mankind,
[Romans 5:12] and all have become a fallen creation.

The “original” sin is the mixture of two different natures; fist, the GOD given pure
nature, and secondly, satan’s evil nature. This is not the way that GOD created man to be. This
is the “Unpardonable Sin”.

All the pardon and forgiveness in the world or worlds to come could not restore Adam and Eve
back to purity. GOD has to make mankind a New Creation. Remission or the taking away of the
sin of Adam and Eve does this. Baptism, which is our Death, Burial and Resurrection does this,
into Christ using the Name of the man who died and shed His pure Blood for you, the LORD
JESUS CHIRST. We are told in [Romans Chapter 6} that this is our New Testament
circumcision that is the operation of GOD. Baptism takes away or removes the Inherited Sin
and puts us into Christ but then what?

Sins [plural] and what they mean.

So now we have been washed clean of the inherited sin and Adam is not to blame anymore
for what we commit, omit or our ignorance. Now what? Do we not sin or make mistakes anymore?
Well some think this is true but I will tell you it is not true. You will still make errors
and the Bible tells us that OUR own sins will separate us from GOD. Are we now
automatically no matter what you do, free of sin? No not at all.

This causes a need for the Body and Blood of Christ Jesus. In [Matthew Chapter 26] He tells
us, “this is My Blood of the New Testament that was shed for many for the Remission of sins”.
This Holy Communion is needed every week for our personal sins. This is the Melchisedec
Communion that comes from our Heavenly High Priest.

We will never be pure on our own or by believing that we are. This does not mean take
Communion and do as you please either but take it in Reverence and Holiness and also for the
purpose that it was shed for, remission or removal of sins. This is a great responsibility.
You can clean up your behavior and try to do what is right but you cannot
believe yourself into getting rid of the sin you were born with or believe yourself into
remission of sins.

Man commits sin by nature. He commits errors in life because he is of a fallen nature. Man does
by nature what a fallen nature does – violates GOD’S Holiness.

All mankind is born with both good and evil. It does not matter if you are the best person
anyone ever met, in you there is both good and evil. Some have more good and some have more
evil.

Just having the appearance of having more good than evil is not the proper yardstick for
measuring.

Real evil is apparent but sometimes it is not. Many people spend their entire lives
without committing crimes or getting in trouble but they still may have hated the Word of the
LORD.

Mankind is born wrong. Mankind is born in sin. [Psalms 51:5]. If man were not a
fallen creature he would not commit sins.

Every sin that man commits can be forgiven, but the sin he inherited cannot be
forgiven or pardoned. [1 John 5:16]

Man’s fallen nature is what man is. It is not what man commits that give him his nature.

The sin that Adam and Eve committed brought with it the ‘death sentence’ which
was pronounced by GOD.

Man’s own sins, which he personally commits, will be forgiven him, if he confesses his sins.
[1 John 1:9]

The ability to completely have our sins removed is the greatest thing that GOD has given us in
the Church Age. They did not have removal or remission in the Old Testament. They had sins
covered (atonement) and they were only covered until the LORD came and shed His Blood. Then
their covered sins was removed. Only the circumcised received this atonement. Others
who were not circumcised came on anyway but it did not do them
any good.

There was a reason that Christ shed His Blood for us and please make use of that Blood in
everyway the Bible tells us we should.

How much truth does it take to go to heaven?

May GOD Richly and Abundantly Bless You All,

What have you done with my word?

By: Linda Kleinstiver

It has all come down to this, you are facing GOD. It is your final judgment. Eternity is in
the balance. Think about that. FOREVER! (No beginning or no end) Can you even
logically fathom that concept? It’s been a life-long journey to this point. All
that you have done so far will determine everything from this point forward.

The question presented to you is this.

“What Have You Done With My Word?”

How would you answer your Creator?
Really give this some thought. This question means more than just saying things like “I tried
to say my prayers and be good”. It’s even more than saying “I tried to obey the Ten
Commandments” –or- “I took communion every week”.

While these are definitely things that His Word commands of us, it really goes much
deeper than this. Even more so for us if we are baptized into Christ. because Baptism
demands Total Commitment.

[Psalms 119: 48] “I lift up my hands to your commands, which I love.”

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
[James 1:22]

The Ten Commandments is what gives life structure. It is the foundation for our
life here on earth and our eternal life. OK, we now know that we have good
foundation, but it’s how we build upon that foundation that will make the difference.
I like to think of it as “our parade of homes”. You know how you like to drive through
neighborhoods and look at beautiful homes, so intricately designed and attractive, as well as
appealing to our senses to the point that we desire to live in something like that, too?
Well, we must do the same with our eternal foundation. We must design our destiny (build
on our foundation) so that when God looks at our home he will be pleased.

[Acts 7:49] “Heaven is My throne and earth is My footstool. What kind of house will you
build for Me?”

The “construction” goes on and on all throughout your life. You may find that there
may be times to do a little “remodeling” and “reconstruction”. This may be to right any
wrongs that may have occurred. To be able to right our wrongs or receive remission is what
keeps our house in order.

We all run into this on a daily basis. For instance: We say hurtful words to loved ones or
lose our temper and cuss. We don’t really mean what we say, and we know that the moment the words
leave our mouth, we are sorry for them. Well, the rebuilding starts again.

Paul reminds us of this in [Romans 7:21] “So I find this law at work: When I want to
do good, evil is right there with me.”

Perhaps your house has become a bit dilapidated and you want to remodel. It could be that you
already have a beautiful clean home and you want to add on a new wing [new revelation
of doctrine] to your home as your knowledge expands. You can do this with the
understanding of the Word of GOD.

[Proverbs 3: 21-33]

“My son, preserve sound judgment and
discernment, do not let them out of your sight;
They will be life for you, an ornament to grace
your neck. Then you will go on your way in
safety, and your foot will not stumble;
When you lie down, you will not be afraid;
When you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.

Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the
ruin that overtakes the wicked, for the
LORD will be your confidence and will keep
your foot from being snared. Do not
withhold good from those who deserve it,
when it is in your power to act. Do not say
to your neighbor, ‘Come back later; I'll
give it tomorrow’ when you now have it with
you. Do not plot harm against your
neighbor, who lives trustfully near you.

Do not accuse a man for no reason, when he
has done you no harm. Do not envy a violent
man or choose any of his ways, for the LORD
detests a perverse man but takes the
upright into his confidence. The LORD'S
curse is on the house of the wicked, but he
blesses the home of the righteous.
[Psalms 119: 48]

Now that your foundation and building are underway, what about the interior of your
home?

Be sure to keep your soul beautiful. As beautiful as your house may look on the
outside, the inside is just as important. It should not be empty.

For instance: people who attend church on a regular basis, maybe even sit in the front pew
(good for the image), but do not listen to a single word of GOD. The outside looks good, but
the inside is very empty.

Another instance is those who have no direction. They listen to a bit of this or a bit of that
and think that they have the ability to decide what is right in their own mind. GOD’S word is
the Only word. We do not make the rules. We are to follow the rules. The inside
of their house looks hodge-podge and unorganized – not very comfortable or attractive
inside there for man or GOD

Here are some of the most important things to decorate your home:
(What you are to do with His word)

Sharing GOD’S teachings and Doctrines with others
Sharing in the teaching of baptism for remission of sin with others.
Sharing in the taking of Communion each week on the first day of the week.
Giving your tithes and offerings for the furtherance of the gospel.

While none of these are in the foundation of the (Ten Commandments), they are taught
to us in the Word of GOD and are very important doctrines for our soul’s sake. We
must abide by all the doctrines and obey all the commandments of GOD.

Do not be lacking in any of the doctrines, or our house will not be full and beautiful and
you will not have done what GOD expects you to do with his word.

Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has
greater honor than the house itself.
[Hebrews 3:3]

sylvia's emachine etalk

By Sylvia Kolenda

We were happy to have Linda’s article to include and we hope you enjoyed it. We do accept guest
articles from time to time. If you send them in be sure they are non-fiction and Biblically factual.
We also like to receive personal testimonies that are short and to the point.

We also want to remind you that we do not send out spam email to anyone. We also do not share
your email addresses with anyone else. The reason I am saying this is that I received a
spam email and the return address was ours.

We also do not ever reply or buy from anyone sending spam. I have received many emails
lately that were supposed to be from Christians.
They said this, “you have
subscribed to our newsletter.” I had not and I find it terrible that anyone would claim to be
Christian and lie about an email. Don’t buy from them and don’t answer them that will just
bring on more emails.
