1 | continue in sin you won't recognize it | Rom 1:21 | homeschoolmom | 159030 | ||
Since I have teenage sons, I was looking for a verse that I can't seem to find that says something like if you sin, your heart will be hardened to it, and the next time you won't recognize it as sin. Any help out there? homeschoolmom |

2 | continue in sin you won't recognize it | Rom 1:21 | mark d seyler | 159031 | ||
Hi Homeschoolmom! My heart goes out to you! I'm not sure which is easier to deal with - teenage boys or an off-course Appollo rocket! :-) Two passages come to my mind regarding your question. The first is in Hebrews 3:13: 12 Watch, brothers, lest perhaps there shall be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief in withdrawing from the living God. 13 But exhort yourselves each day, as long as it is being called today, that not any of you be hardened by the deceit of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ, if truly we hold the beginning of the assurance firm to the end; This passage speak of sin deceiving us, and hardening our hearts against God. The more we ignore God in favor of our sin, the less inclined we are to hear Him next time that we want to sin, until we have turned off our ears and hardened our hearts against hearing His voice. The other, in Romans 1, I think is more specific: Rom 1:28 And even as they did not think fit to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do the things not right, Read through the entire portion from Rom 1:21-32. Several times in this passage it says "God gave them up to..." When God gives us over to our sin, He is no longer holding us back from it, or convicting us. Our sin becomes our way of life, until we are lost in it, and may not even recognize that it is wrong, as we enjoy the very idea of our sin. I hope this helps! God bless you, and help you to raise Godly sons unto Him! Love in Christ, Mark |
