Why Is Sin So Harmful?

“But that you may know that the Son of Man (Jesus) has the power on earth to forgive sins”-Mark 2: 10

Sin is so harmful for two reasons: First, it offends God! Second, it can make us feel so guilty that we draw away from God. Fortunately for us, Jesus has the power to forgive sins! But we want to avoid them as much as possible 🙂

The Bible defines and lists sins. So if we need more knowledge as to what constitutes sin-we can simply read it and ask the Holy Spirit to help us, for self control is one of the Holy Spirit’s Gifts 🙂

The Holy Spirit was sent by God to help us: “But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.”– John 16:7

So when we feel overwhelmed, we simply need to ask the Holy Spirit for help. And He will be happy to give it :).
