Bible Question: But do we have to sin so because it shows off His glory all the more? |
Bible Answer: Paul deals with this kind of thinking as follows Rom 3:5 But if our unrighteousness brings out God's righteousness more clearly, what shall we say? That God is unjust in bringing his wrath on us? (I am using a human argument.) 6Certainly not! If that were so, how could God judge the world? 7Someone might argue, "If my falsehood enhances God's truthfulness and so increases his glory, why am I still condemned as a sinner?" 8Why not say--as we are being slanderously reported as saying and as some claim that we say--"Let us do evil that good may result"? Their condemnation is deserved. Let no one be deceived. God is not mocked. We will most definitely pay for our sins in this world and reap the full consequences UNLESS we've got the blood of Jesus to cover our sins AND we're sincerely trying our best to live a christian life every day. God bless. --Rowdy |
