IBr*" i v THIS IS THE GOSPEL; Text: (Rom 5-12). F.r by or.e man sin entered into the world, and death by sin. And so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned. I want to speak on the sub ject of the power of sin. Sin begins as a little thing in the heart of an individual. Man is born into this world under its curse, and under condem nation to God. (Rom. 3-23) the Bible says, “for all have sinned and come short of the g ory of God.” As this sin is allowed to grow in the heart of the individual, he or she is brought under its power more and more until finally they become a slave to it’s power, and sin holds domin ion over them. It/s sin that makes the socal drinker a drunkard. It’s a tobacco de mon that makes people a slave to the tobacco habit.

Sin is a trans gression of Gods law, and it separates the soul from Paul speaks about sin wor rying in his members and making him a slave to its power.

It breaks up it causes murder, law'essoess, the fires of passon and greed, hate and lust, are sweeping thii earth, of ours because of sin. History has reached a climax, something must give The morale of this ration is lover than it’s been in any genera tion before I for one believe GREENE CHEVROLET CO.,SPRUCE PINE, N.C. 28777 we have passed the point of no return. The Bible says sin when it is finished, briiig eth forth death. This docs not refer to the natural death, but to the spiritual death, or (Hell). In (Ps. 9-17) the Bible says, the wicked shall be turned into Hell, and all Na tions that forget God. In (Rev. 21-8) the Bible declares, the fearful, the unbelieving, the abominable, the murder ers, and whoremongers, sor cerers, idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake, which burneth with fire and brimstone which is the second death. This will be the wages for living a sinful life. But its not Gods will for any to perish, but that all should come to repentance. Whether one wants to ac knowledge it or not, every Bible sign points to the very near end of this age, and the return of Jesus Christ, for his Church. Will his coming find you ready? After almost two thousand years, the cross up on which he died still stands as a witness that Satans pow r ef and works have been de stroyed. In (I Jn. 3-8) the Bible says, he that commtt teth sin is of the devil, for this purpose was the son of God manifested that h e might destroy the works of the Devil. God loves you sin ner friend, he loves ycu back slidder, but there is a possi bility of o~e waiting too long to find God. Sins power may you captive, but sins power has been broken, and destroyed at Calvary. The five enemies of man are, sin, sick- ness, demons, fear and death. Jesus Christ destroyed all of these through h's death on the cross, and his Resurrec tion from the dead the third day. In (Rev. 1-18) Jesus said I am he that was dead, and behold I am al've for ever more, and have the keys to death, and of Hell. He’s the first and the last, thr beginn ing and the ending. He’s the rose of Sharron, the L'ly of the valley, he’s the bright and morning star. He’s the cure for every Pi, he is redemption, and salvation, for every be liever. He is a Saviour and, a refuge for all who will trust and believe in him, Amen. Is he your Savior? If not, make him so now.
