The Futility of Sin
Series Series in Jeremiah (2014-2017)
70
Aim: To battle sin in us; but to always embrace Christ's righteousness.
Doctrine: Sin always leads to calamity. The great lie: sin has no consequences. The truth: sin (if not expunged by Christ) leads to ruin.
Exegesis: The bondage of sin's futility: sin forces us to flee God's provision (vv. 27-29), to devise our own salvation (v. 30), and to grieve our bad decisions (v. 31).
Further application: The true saint's candid perspective on sin: ''God, give me a lot of affliction over one sin,'' and ''God, give me grace to trust Jesus always.''
Key phrase: v. 30a ''And when you are plundered, what will you do?...''
