Sin and God's Treatment of It
Isaiah 6:6-7
Then flew one of the seraphim to me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:…


No intelligent man can read the entire Bible without discovering four things —

1. That God considers sin a positive element in human affairs, to be talked about and dealt with as a fact.

2. That sin is the one abominable thing God says He hates, and will heavily punish.

3. That every sin is inherent in some personal factor.

4. That Almighty God Himself has provided a way by which every sinner can be relieved from the penalty of his transgressions, and graciously restored to holiness.

(C. S. Robinson, D. D.)
