Most people think of doing wrong as a series of more serious
sin on a graduated scale. That is a little white
lie like 'The check is in the mail'
is a lot less serious than murder.
Galatians 5:19 lists seventeen serious sins,
from adultery to wild partying — and a lot of other
grievous things inbetween — but none of them is
greater than the PRESUMPTOUS SIN.
So what is this sin and why is it the most damning?
Inwardly, everyone has a conscience, and when any of the so-called
“deadly sins” are committed, people deep-down know
they shouldn’t be doing them, but because it feels right
or it’s justified in their mind...they do them anyway.
However this most deadly of all sins circumvents conscience.
You see, whenever we presume, that is – determine in our minds
that what we choose to do or believe is “right” and
perfectly OK we fly in the face of the truth, and the #1 presumption
of this is “I do not need (or) believe
in God.” That, for certain is the surest way to
eternal destruction because then you will be NOT innocent from
the great transgression and final judgement of God.
This is serious! ALL SINS – no matter how heinous
you’ve committed in this life — are forgivable, but the
presumptuous sin is the great cosmic sucker punch you NEVER saw coming.
Friend, DO NOT make this - THE biggest of all mistakes.
