The Sins Everyone Must Avoid To Escape Self-Destruction

This is for Christians: When you receive Christ as Lord and Savior, you know He has conquered sin in your life. It is through His death that your sins have been cleansed and no longer to be remembered. Jesus’ life makes the difference.


"Blessed are they whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him” (Rom. 4:7). See the SINS you must avoid...
