Description
In the previous episode, we talked about how we can know and have confidence that God exists. But the difference between knowing that God exists, and enjoying a relationship with God is a vast distance. Just believing in God doesn’t explain why he seems so far away.
The answer to that dilemma isn’t a popular one these days. When we talk about sin a lot of modern preconceptions come to mind. Ideas about guilt and shame, judgment and brokenness. But none of these terms really captures what the Bible says about sin, the power that separates us from God.
It’s that biblical definition of sin that J. Gresham Machen sets out to explain in this broadcast, and this isn’t just an exercise in academic theology. Although it can be uncomfortable to dig deeper into the darkness of our hearts, there’s hope. As we learn more about what sin is, we can begin to understand the real meaning of the sacrifice that Jesus made for us on the cross.
