Gospel Journey

Sinners sin, that's what they do.

Welcome to the GOSPEL JOURNEY. This week we'll be working through the sentence: Our sin separates us from God. These posts are to help you engage with the central message of the Bible. Comment. Question. Agree. Disagree. Either way, let us know what you think.

Remember the question, "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?" At risk of sounding similar in question, let's pose this question: Do we sin because we are sinners, or are we sinners because we sin?

Take a look at Romans 3:10-23 and answer these questions:

1. Who is righteous?
2. Would anyone choose to follow God?
3. What kind of things describe the fate and character of all people?
4. Why can't people be justified by the Law?
5. Where to all people stand in relation to God?

Later, in Romans 4:12-13, Paul explains that sin entered the world through Adam. We've all be infected with it. You weren't born morally neutral and then you sinned and messed it up. You were born a sinner, that's why you sin.
