Sin is Never A Bargain

March 15th, 2019

1 Peter 2:24 (KJB) Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Sin is expensive to the sinner.

A person who does not believe in things of God is already condemned and set to die rather than to live forever.

The Bible is very clear throughout the cannon of scripture that man reaps exactly what he sows in life. Abraham’s life was greatly affected because of his liaison with Hagar, who by the way his wife’s handmaiden. Not only was Abraham’s life affected, but so were the lives of his wife Sarah, Hagar, and Ishmael.

From Sarai to Sara

Sarai was born in Babylon; home of the proliferation of all false religion. It is not clear what beliefs and practices both Sarai and Abram had been taught growing up. Abram, Sarai, and extended family members of Abram left Babylon heading to Canaan to dwell after the marriage of Abram and Sarai. This journey forth was in a time of severe famine and great difficulty as they made their way to the land of Canaan.

Because of the severe famine Abraham changed ...
