This Christian life comes by way of sacrifice. It cost the life of God s dear Son. He is our only hope and the one we seek to be like and love. Christ s elect are held close to Him. Sin is unclean .
Sin separates the sinner from the Savior.
Sin is in the sinner and the sinner is held accountable for his sin. I know that I am outside the camp because the sinfulness of my sin blocks me from the presence of God. Only you God can change my just predicament. There is nothing I can do. No sacrifice will do unless I see what my sin deserves.
