II. Sin is failing to do what God conf
mands us. Sin is just not doing the thing
ought To de. one need not be a thief
r lian selfish to be Il sinner. but just
neglect to do right. There are many per
sons who think that because they are
guilty of no outbreaking sin they are not
sinners. The simple truth is, oul, failure
to do Gods will Is the most terrible of
sins. Therefore hear me tonight. Let the
wicked forsake his ways and the un
righteous man his thoughts and let him
return unto God and he will have mercy
upon him and to our God for he will
abundantly pardon.
