Sin is very hard to let go of. Because of Adam and Eve, we inherited a selfish nature, and we instinctively choose to do things that make us feel good. The problem is that the fun only lasts so long. Before long, we start to realize that hurting ourselves and others isn’t worth it. By that point, the sin is so entrenched in our lives that it may seem impossible to root out. As Pastor Mark reminds us in today’s message, it is not impossible. Christ purchased our freedom, and through the Holy Spirit we can completely conquer sin. We need to look beyond the short-term pleasure and see the eternal consequences.
