What is sin? | Christian Apologetics and Research Ministry

What is sin? | Christian Apologetics and Research Ministry: "Sin is the breaking of God's law. If God says 'Do not lie' and you lie, then you have broken His law and sinned. When you sin, you offend God because it is His law that you have broken."

Exposing the Ten Pillars of Gambling

Exposing the Ten Pillars of Gambling: "Gambling is a blight on our nation, a cancer that eats away at the souls of millions. In spite of the fact that it increases crime rates, degrades morals, and destroys families, gambling has thrived. Why?"

Be Killing Sin, or Else

Be Killing Sin, or Else: "If someone were to ask you, “What’s the most dangerous spiritual responsibility to neglect?” You might think of Scripture reading, prayer, evangelism, listening to preaching, or attending corporate worship. And it’s not that you’d be wrong…God commands all believers to pursue those things. They’re non-negotiable."

Gambling vs. Risk Taking

Gambling vs. Risk Taking: "You’ve probably heard this argument before from advocates of gambling: “If gambling is sin, then so is investing in the stock market, buying a house, and even starting your own company. They all involve the same element—risk taking.” That argument may appear convincing on the surface, but can it survive closer scrutiny? Today we'll let John MacArthur answer that question."

For he stated: “For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. Bad thinking produces bad theology."

StreetApologetics: "Q: Is repentance and trusting in Christ two separate stages?
In short, the answer is no. With that said, let’s see about fleshing this out to get a better idea of what is going on.

There is a very tight relationship, which repentance and faith enjoy together. They could be thought of as two facets or sides of one singular action. Repentance and faith are inseparable in such a way that you cannot have one without the other."

Does this mean that I am guilty of violating the tenth commandment by coveting my opponents title, belt, or even reputation? It seems to me that it does, but I'm not sure."

How can I become more motivated for soul winning?

How can I become more motivated for soul winning?: "Answer: Being motivated for soul winning is a good thing, but we must define some terms first. “Soul winning” is a metaphor for evangelism, or witnessing. As such, this is a good thing to pursue. The Bible calls us to evangelize. Evangelism is at the heart of the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20). Christians are called to be witnesses of their faith to a watching world (Acts 1:8). In fact, the word “martyr” comes from the Greek word for “witness.” Early Christians were often put to death for their “witness” to Christ. Clearly these people were so motivated for winning souls that they gave their lives to that cause."
