.....for sin is the transgression of the law.
1 John 3:4
1 John 3:4
"Sin is the transgression of the character of God. Thus we are not at peace with God because our characters are out of harmony with His." E.E. Zinke
And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; ....
Because thou sayest,
I am rich,
and increased with goods,
and have need of nothing;
and knowest not
that thou art wretched,
and miserable,
and poor,
and blind,
and naked:
that thou mayest be rich;
and white raiment,
that thou mayest be clothed,
and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear;
and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve,
that thou mayest see.
Revelation 3:14,17,18
