24 - Hope - Confess Sin

1 John 1:9 - "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness" Confess Sin Sin separates man from God. When we receive Christ as our Savior, our sins are forgiven and we are cleansed. We continue to sin because we are sinners. Failure to confess on a daily basis causes distress. We suffer guilt and fellowship with Christ is broken. We will struggle to have fellowship with others. The Old Testament teachings in this week's study reveal sin in the lives of these great men of God. As we study the Bible, we understand how they overcame sin and were used of God. God has left a record for us to benefit from.
