The Awareness of Sin | 1 John 1:8-10

Pastor Gabe expounds on 1 John 1:8-10, emphasizing the necessity of acknowledging sin and the transformative power of repentance through Christ. He warns against self-deception and the danger of denying sin, which not only blinds us but also calls God a liar. Pastor Gabe highlights the faithfulness and justice of God in forgiving our sins when we confess them, reminding us that Christ's sacrifice satisfies God's righteous demands. True repentance, he explains, involves more than regret; it is marked by sorrow for sin, a hatred for it, and a turning toward righteousness. He challenges believers to live lives of ongoing repentance, pursuing holiness and restoration in relationships, particularly within the family and church community. Finally, he encourages the congregation to rest in God's mercy, seek accountability, and strive for unity, urging them to love Christ more than their sin as they grow in sanctification.
