Iniquity and Sin: Understanding the Mystery of Iniquity and Its Spiritual Consequences

  Introduction The terms “sin” and “iniquity” are often used interchangeably in everyday language, but the Bible distinguishes between these two concepts in profound ways. While both represent forms of moral wrongdoing, “iniquity” goes deeper, pointing to a premeditated, entrenched evil that flows from a rebellious heart. Understanding the differences between sin and iniquity is crucial for…

Psalm 51:2-4 (NASB1995) - Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity And cleanse me from my sin. For I know my transgressions, And my sin is ever before me. Against You, You only, I have sinned And done what is evil in Your sight, So that You are justified when You speak And blameless when You judge.

Forever walking the line of "Words technically do not mean anything people mean things by words" and "I am a writer and an amateur (og meaning) theologian and as such the meaning of words, especially etymologically, is really important to me"

being trans is so dangerous when you really start breaking apart naming conventions because it pipelines into: - "i just go by my online name, kelly" - "i can change my name! it's jace now" - "i can have names that reference other things! i can be reader or charlie in my fandom groups :)" - "i can have multiple names at the same time! now im jace, reader, charlie, and icarus!" - "i can have names that are just nouns! i can be jace, reader, charlie icarus, choir and knight!" - "i can have names that are literally just straight up phrases. who can stop me from being an entire poem? one of my names is now

or "Niq" for short."

What Repentance Truly Means

Jesus began His ministry by preaching “Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” (Matt. 4:17) This is verified by Mark’s gospel account in Mark 1:14-15. What should be obvious is how important the concept of repentance is to the good news Jesus Christ preached.   The word repent was translated from the Greek word metanoeo which means to think differently or afterwards; I.e. reconsider…

Do we know the Lord or deny Him by our works?

Revelation 14:12  Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. [b]Here is a long reading. On the bright side, it is a shorter read than searching through all the scriptures in the bible. There are those who have not read the bible and are unaware of these scriptures. So here is my gift to you. Some believe the following verse…

"Behold, the hand of The Invisible God Of your forefathers shall be felt! The presence of The Holy One of Israel Shall cause all in the earth to tremble!…

The mountains shall be thrown down, the steep Places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground!…

Behold, at the sound of My voice all creation shall bow down!…

For the time has come for The Ancient of Days To stand up and judge the peoples of the earth, For The Everlasting to stretch out His arm And pour out judgment upon the nations!…

59:1 Behold, the LORD’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: 59:2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear. 59:3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue has muttered perverseness. 59:4 None…

Ephraim's Iniquity

1 "Whenever I want to heal Israel, all I can see is Ephraim's sin and Samaria's wickedness. People cheat each other. They break into houses and steal. They rob people in the streets.

2 They don't realize that I remember all the evil things they've done. Now their sins surround them. Their sins are in my presence.

3 "They make kings happy with the wicked things they do. They make officials happy with the lies they tell.

4 They all commit adultery. They are like a heated oven, an oven so hot that a baker doesn't have to fan its flames when he makes bread.

5 On the day of the king's celebration, the officials become drunk from wine, and the king joins mockers.

6 They become hot like an oven while they lie in ambush. All night long their anger smolders, but in the morning it burns like a raging fire.

7 They are all as hot as an oven. They consume their judges [like a fire]. All their kings die in battle, and none of them calls to me.

8 "Ephraim mixes with other nations. Ephraim, you are like a half-baked loaf of bread.

9 Foreigners are using up your strength, but you don't realize it. You have become a gray-haired, old man, but you don't realize it.

10 Israel, your arrogance testifies against you, but even after all this, you don't turn to the LORD your God or look to him for help.

11 Ephraim, you are like a silly, senseless dove. You call for Egypt and run to Assyria for help.

12 When you go, I will spread my net over you. I will snatch you out of the air like a bird. I will punish you for all the evil things you have done.

13 "How horrible it will be for these people. They have run away from me. They must be destroyed because they've rebelled against me. I want to reclaim them, but they tell lies about me.

14 They don't pray to me sincerely, even though they cry in their beds and make cuts on their bodies while praying for grain and new wine. They have turned against me.

15 I trained them and made them strong. Yet, they plan evil against me.

16 They don't return to the Most High. They are like a defective bow. Their officials will die in battle because they curse. The people in Egypt will ridicule them for this. — Hosea 7 | God's Word Translation (GWT) The Holy Bible, God’s Word® Translation Copyright 1995 by God’s Word to the Nations. All rights reserved.
