Study Notes
Making the Decision: Sin and its Penalty
- The fifth stage in witnessing involves helping someone make a decision about Christ.
- Four facts the unbeliever needs to understand
- They are sinners
- They must pay for their sins
- Christ already paid the price for their sins
- They must repent, trusting Christ by faith for salvation
- The lesson focuses on the first two points: sinfulness and the need to pay for it (consequences).
- A person may already realize their sinfulness through honest self-reflection or a witness of someone's life.
- Witnesses should show the true character of God.
- A person should understand all sin is an offense against God.
- The rich young ruler example shows a person who followed the law outwardly but missed the spirit of it, demonstrating they're not truly following God
- The goal is to show someone through scripture they are a sinner needing salvation, not to keep the law to be saved.
- Key commandments should be referenced to further illustrate sin and responsibility.
- Three suggestions for explaining verses: make the verses clear and simple, make them personal, and make sure the person understands before moving on.
- The question should be asked, "What difference does it make you've sinned?"
- The issue of sin is not just physical but includes spiritual death.
- God's holiness and perfect demands are significant characteristics to understand.
- Further verses related to understanding sin include Romans 6:23, Ezekiel 18:4, Luke 16:23, and Revelation 20:15. These further illuminate the concept of spiritual death and eternal consequences of sin, but not for believers.
