THE INSANITY OF MAN
AND SIN'S TOTAL RUIN


by Pastor Del Wray


WHAT IS SIN?

“The thought of foolishness is sin.” (Prov. 24:9)
Unbelief is sin: “Of sin because they believe not on me.”(John 16:9)
“Whatsoever is not of faith is sin.”(Rom. 14:23)
“The transgression of the law is sin.” (1 John 3:4)
“All unrighteousness is sin.”(1 John 5:17)
Sins of omission: “Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.” (James 4:17)
The origin of sin: “He that committeth sin is of the devil.”(1 John 3:8)
Sins of commission are sins committed in violation of some prohibitive law: as, “Thou shalt not kill.”
“Thou shalt not steal,” etc. A sin of omission attaches to one who fails to keep a positive law of God;
as, “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart;” “Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.”(Matt. 23:37-39)
Sins of omission are fearfully numerous; and these sins leave the soul in guilt and impotency as truly as do sins
of commission. All are included under sin: “We have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin.”(Rom. 3:10)
Persons may sin, who do not have the written law; and as many as do so sin will perish, unless they receive pardon
through Christ: “For as many as have sinned without law shall perish without law.”(Rom. 2:12)

Man refuses to learn this one main lesson.

Of the many things God has showed man through the dispensations, the lesson that should stand out above the others is that man is a hopeless rebel, utter failure, and without hope without God. He is simply not capable of living up to God's righteous standard no matter how "enlightened" and able he may think he is.

Place him in a beautiful garden with everything he needs, including fellowship with God, a beautiful and compatible wife, the earth under his dominion, access to the Tree of Life, etc., and man will forsake it all and choose death. Leave him alone with his conscience to guide him and man will become so exceedingly wicked that he must be removed from the earth with a flood. Give him great and sure promises and man will flee them and speak lies in unbelieving fear. Make of him a chosen nation for God to speak through and dwell among, with His holy Law and priesthood, and man will abandon his God and worship dumb idols. Give him an eternal redemption from sin and hell, everlasting life, an indwelling Holy Spirit, the promise of a new body, a home in New Jerusalem, and birth him into God's own family making him His son, and man will repay his Savior with rebellion, worldliness, and indifference. Give him a perfect, uncursed earth, a cooperative environment, no Satan to tempt him, extended lifespan, and Jesus Christ himself to reign over him, and man will revolt and try to force Christ from His throne. All is clear. Man is a wicked, vile, evil, selfish, and vain creature, and apart from God he is utterly hopeless and bound for hell. The surest proof of this is God is near the last millennium of his dealings with man (now 6000 years along), and man collectively still has not learned this ONE main lesson yet!

The first work that the Holy Spirit does toward leading one to Christ is to convince or convict him of sin.

(John 16:3). This He usually does through the preached Word, or through the instructions and admonitions of pious parents or other earnest Christians. The sinner may resist conviction, and drive the Spirit from him: thus preferring to remain in sin and darkness rather than to be saved. But if one will yield to conviction, he will speedily reach the place of true repentance—which is godly sorrow for sin, death to the love of sin, and a fixed purpose to break with it forever.

Hear what God’s word says about repentance.

Jesus says: “I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” (Matt 9:13)
The Holy Spirit says: “Repent, therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out.”(Acts 19:13)
“He now commandeth all men everywhere to repent.” (Acts 17:30)
“Godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of; but the sorrow of the world worketh death.” (II Cor. 7:10)
“Not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance.” (Rom. 2:4)
“That repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations.”(Luke 24:27)
“Not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” (II Peter 3:9)
“I say unto you that likewise joy shall be in Heaven over one sinner that repenteth.” (Luke 15:7)
“The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise.”(Psa. 51:17)
“Repent, and believe the Gospel.” (Mark 1:15)
“Testifying, both to the Jews and to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Acts 20:21)

When the penitent sinner is thoroughly killed to the love of sin he will no longer wish to commit sin, even if he knew that its penalty would never be visited upon him. He has his fill of sin. When the penitent reaches the place, where he utterly despairs of pardon and salvation through deeds of law, he is then in a right attitude to accept Christ as his personal Sin bearer and Savior.

Faith in Christ, the last step.

(John 3:16-18) (John 3:36) see also (John 1:15); (John 6:46); (Rom. 1:17); (1John 5:10)

As follows: When the penitent soul sees salvation in none other, and then deliberately commits his poor guilty soul to Christ, and trusts Him for pardon and salvation, instantly he is pardoned, regenerated, and saved. The word says to the penitent who realizes his lost condition, and desires to be saved: “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.” (Acts 16:31) (Rom. 5:1-4) (Rom. 5:5)

Oh sinsick soul, fear not to trust Him. He hath already put away your sin by His death for you on the cross; and now, if you will only believe it and trust Him you will realize your pardon; your burden of sin will be removed; the peace of God will come into your heart and his love will be shed abroad therein.

Illustration—If you had a matter of business that had to go through the forms of law, and you knew a perfectly competent and trustworthy lawyer who had skill in attending to just such cases, and you should entrust your business to him, and rest satisfied that he would manage it properly—that would be faith. You might have all confidence in the skill and trustworthiness of the lawyer; but, if you did not entrust your business to him, it would do you no good.

Jesus Christ is the only Advocate that can adjust the charge against us at the high court of Heaven; and, whoever really commits his case to Him, will speedily realize that it has been properly adjusted; and through the Holy Spirit, he will receive the witness and assurance that his past sins have all been washed away in the blood of Jesus Christ.Other Scriptures—“ For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." "For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved." "He that believeth on Him is not condemned but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed on the name of the only begotten Son of God.” “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life; and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him.” (John 3:16-18); (John 3:36) see also (John 1:15); (John 6:46); (Rom. 1:17); (1John 5:10)
