How (Conquer) A Sin

Source: Catholic Insight

Why does a human sin?

As the first thing, I would tell you. Lust and temptation, we cannot win these. That's period! But, if you are a son of Christ, you'll get why and how sin comes from. Jesus died on the cross for your sins. That's exactly, but why you still cannot win these, so why?

The world, again, the place of full lust and temptation. You still cannot win these, EXPECT by having God at your center of life. 

That was written by an Instagram story. Then, we would like to discuss sin and why human has sinned? That's a great question. Let's talk about it!

So, would a human like to a sin? 

No, they wouldn't unless they can see the power of God after getting baptized by the Holy Spirit. We learn in Romans 5: 12

"Therefore, just a sin came into the world through one man, and death spread to all men because all sinned." Romans 5: 12

So, we are natural humans having sins because we would. Romans 5: 12 early explains how a sin comes from. It has related to the book of Genesis 2: 13-17, God's commandment, that if eating the forbidden fruit, so it surely shall die. See how this happens in Genesis 3: 1-24.

"Where you are?" God is looking for Adam and Eve hiding. 

Is a sin practical in life?

A sin that doesn't come if you are tempted to do forbidden things because you did and you do not know. So, sin would be as long as temptation and lust will be going on. And you still cannot win these. In the world, a sin means punishment. Human creates laws so can be obeyed and will not fall the canyon, but sometimes-- the laws created in the world against the Bible-- that force to be obeyed. We see 1 John 3:4

"Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness, sin is lawlessness." 1 John 3:4.

What do you think?

You choose to follow, which means you only obey what the Bible says, and you aren't supposed to obey the world's laws. For example, in a country that allows same-sex marriage, then you don't, and you are unnecessary to obey, and you still can marry between a man and a woman only. Pray for this country so the country will cancel its policy as the policy against the Bible so they can back to the Bible, Sola Scriptura. Probably, you can protest on the street, hopefully, it works out. The world, again, has never listened to God's word. So, it's a dangerous place, this place needs to be light. 

Forgiveness is a great joy.

We see the Birth of Jesus in 2 Luke 1: 1-12. The verse 12, "...great joy." Forgiveness is a great joy. Before Jesus came, the world was full of lawlessness in God's words. The act is to forgive, that's what Jesus did for a woman who was caught in adultery in John 8: 1-11. "Go home and no sin more."

Jesus said, "I'm the light." in verse 12. The light is that the world needs that one. He knows the world is a dangerous place, so He came and paid the penalty, so all sins are forgiven. Then, Jesus appeared after being crucified, that's the victory and the hope that the world needs. Then, Jesus ordered His twelve to go into the world and share the great joy. What did they do? Forgiveness, the main reason is what they tried to minister to the world. They died as martyrs, so they could believe that forgiveness still exists and will never die. Many evangelists, missionaries, and Christians were suffering and awfully treated, and even if they had to face the death penalty, they still forgive. Forgiveness remains alive, never dies, and will exist. 

In the Roman Empire, a country that had known Christianity under Caesar Neto who was a dictator and had a role of massacre over 2.000 Christians. Hundreds of years later, Romans becomes Christians and celebrated the first Christmas on December 25th, Dies Natalis sol invictus. Forgiveness has a main role in the world that frequently needs it, looking at how happened the Roman Empire. In Japan, Christian Japanese still exist despite Japanese history having an anti-Christ policy that massacre three foreign missionaries and thousands of Christians Japanese. 

So, forgiveness is a hope, a victory, light, alive, and never dies. You and everyone need that one because you all sinned. You do not need to conquer sin, but you need hope. Stay living in Christ and trusting God's love as a new life and creation in 2 Corinthians 5: 17.

You still can win these if you are living in God's love at the life center. That's your hope and victory. Victory means salvation. Let's share the great joy that the world needs!

How Christianity View Generation Z?

Source: Asbury Revival 2023, Cincinnati Enquirer I spent the weekend working and playing on a PC/ computer. I learned and watched about Asbury Revival which went viral in Wilmore, Kentucky. Approximately 15.000 attendances worshipping at a university, any sources tell. Which were mostly college and high school students. That was goosebumps! Felt like "Wow, America is back on the right way!" and "That's nice." Generation Z, where somebody who was born around the 1990s to 2000s, living depends on technology and that is called the modern era. We have cellphones, tablets, Instagram, Twitter, and laptops, and we depend on technology the most. I heard that is also called Millennial Generation. We have easier access than the previous generation. I'm one of this generation. I depend on technology since I can't live without them. As you do and exactly, you can't live without them, aren't you? Well, we will learn about how Christianity views Generation Z. ...

Controversial Performance at the Olympics Opening Ceremony

Last Supper, source: Artchi The Paris Olympics got hit a different whole idea which is usually taken held traditionally at a national stadium - Paris chose to boat instead a long walking and performed beyond nonsense that they performed "satanic, promoting the LGBTQ, and destroying the Last Supper". That would caused an international angry which is considered mocking Christianity faith. The Last Supper is popularity whom, an Italian painter, Leonard da Vinci. He made the Last Supper in 1495-1498. The Last Supper is dedicated to the last day of Jesus Christ where He put His blood and body to the twelve disciples before Judas eventually cheated. Jesus Christ, then crucified and rose at the day three - that Jesus had fulfilled His prophecy. I remember when I studied at a Catholic school, I always saw the Last Supper at dining room or reception room. A Catholic teacher said that was the last night where Jesus met His disciples before he was being arrested, tortured, crucified, an...
