I . Thesis Statement

The presupposition of this is that sin is the underlying problem of man . While ever since the beginning of time this reality has long been dodged and concealed , the fact remains that every time problems occur , sin - as always is the case - is behind them , and every one 's trouble seems to be continually to look for who or what is to blame Sources that will buttress this premise include primarily the Bible , and

other theological journals /articles made by theologians

Why is Sin a Problem

I . Introduction

As stated in the thesis statement of this , and it is always the position of the author , sin is and always has been the ruling principle behind every trouble that humanity has been experiencing since the beginning of time . Although , of course , many would point to other causes , the Bible nevertheless , plain and straight , has put its blame on sin . Since the Holy Scriptures provides its own version of the commencement of earthly life , and almost all religions and cultures embrace its narrative and ethical standards as their authority , it would be of much help to begin the discussion using its authoritative pages as reference material .

And if the next question to be raised is : From what does man need to be redeemed ' The obvious answer will be from sin ' When the angel Gabriel divulged to Joseph the identity of the child in Mary 's womb , he also gave him the name by which the child will be rightfully called . You shall call His name Jesus , for He will save His people from their sins (Matt .1 :21 .

2 . Sin is a living principle that enslaves every man

3 . Sin was effectively dealt with in Christ
