Résultats pour "Sins" dans Christianisme

As Christians, we believe that all sins are considered equal in God's eyes.

It seems we have created a sliding scale where gossip, jealousy, and selfishness comfortably exist within the church. In short, some sins have simply become acceptable.

When you reject the sin of empathy, you reject the manipulation of the media, the manipulation of family and friends, and most importantly, the manipulation of your own heart.

What is sin? Is it simply wrongdoing? Why do its effects linger over time? In this sensitive, imaginative, and original work, Gary Anderson shows how changing conceptions of sin and forgiveness lay at the very heart of the biblical tradition. Spanning nearly 2,000 years, the book brilliantly demonstrates how sin, once conceived of as a physical burden, becomes, over time, eclipsed by economic metaphors. Transformed from a weight that an individual carried, sin becomes a debt that must be repaid in order to be redeemed in God's eyes.

Understanding the biblical definition of sin is a necessity for correct doctrine. It is more than a semantic discussion over terminology. It goes to the heart of Christian life and experience and affects every theological position. The core of Wesleyan theology is the understanding that God delivers from all sin, both in practice and in heart. Scripture is very clear that, at the judgment, God will either condemn one to hell or allow one into heaven based upon the sinlessness of his life. The issue of dealing with sin has divided evangelical Christianity into Calvinistic and Wesleyan camps.

Each deadly sin has virtues to counterpoint it. Daniel Doriani, Michael Kruger, Jen Pollock Michel, and others explore biblical teaching on godly character and the practices and means of grace that promote virtue.

From Sin to Sanctity, translated by TAN Books, is a collection of prayers and meditations St. Anselm composed in response to an inquiry by a pious woman named Adelaide. As St. Anselm states, he wrote these prayers for Adelaide so that her heart “might tend toward a more burning charity of God, and that through the rigorous introspection the prayers demand, she may more despise her sins, by desiring to grow more humble, and by humbling, experience the terror of her final judgment and that such a moment of distress might result in groans and tears.”

People are obsessed with life; no one wants to die. In fact, we are scared to death of dying. Most of us are familiar with the saying, "You only live once." But we have to ask ourselves an all-important question: What happens to us after we die? For most people, death is either a great mystery or a subject of great denial. However, the fact remains–we all die. What if this life is not all there is? What if there actually is life after death? If so, who can tell us what happens after we die? Because of His firsthand experience in heaven and His knowledge of the future, Jesus can.
