1John 3:4
Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.(KJV)
transgress: from the Greek word "anomia" from "a" (negative particle) + nomos ("law" or "commandments"), meaning lawless or law violator.
Sin shatters God's law which requires that a penalty be paid (Heb.9:27, Rom.3:20, Ja.9-10, Gal.3:10). God's full judgment on our transgressions was meted out on Jesus Christ at Calvary (Gal.3:13, Col.2:13-14). God is no longer angry because of man's sin (Is.53:11), but that peace God now has toward man is only in Christ (Col.1:20-22, Rom,5:1). Those who remain outside of Christ remain under God's wrath (Rom.5:1). (click here to see how God's wrath works)
But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith (Gal.3:11) |
