Well, how do we get tricked into sinning?

Tricks into sinning.

Yes, that's the question on the table today.

And the answer is found in Romans chapter 6, verses 22 to 23, as we will hear in a sermon

clip from Pastor John two decades ago, this clip was sent into us by Gabriela, a listener

to the podcast who lives in Sweden.

She writes this that, quote, the following sermon clip has been very helpful for me in understanding

the nature of sin and the true freedom we have in Christ, living as a Christian and

probably the most secular country in the world.

The concept of being a slave and a culture that seems free and independent is very controversial.

This sermon gave me the tools I needed to reach some unbelievers in my life, incredible.

Well, here's a clip from Pastor John sermon back in the year 2000 sent to us by Gabriela

in Sweden.

Thanks for the clip.

Nobody sins out of duty.

You only sin because the master makes it look so appealing, so pleasant to do his bidding

and to keep his will and do his commands.

So when we obey sin, it feels free.

It doesn't feel like earning wages.

My guess is, if you're here in this room right now and you're outside Christ, you're not

a believer and you're hearing me say that belonging to the slave master's sin is like

earning wages, you're saying yourself doesn't feel like that to me.
