Your Pet Sin You love it. You slave for it and maybe you count it as a secret, But long since, God your Maker, saw it, and laid It on Christ who was sent to die for all your sins. Just as a father loves his own, so God loves you but He cannot wink at your sins. Instead He put them on Christ who took the curse and suf fered the pains of hell to clear you. HUMAN GOODNESS? You can not blot out even one sin. But the blood of Jesus Christ, Ood's only born Son, cleanses from all sin. God cannot lie. Believe Him, that your sins are settled for and He gives you eternal life. Believe and stand on it that you have lernal life. Now feed the new lift out of the Bible.
