I know something about you. You are a sinner. How do I know it? Because I'm a sinner too. But the question you and I need to ask ourselves. Is this? Where did send come from? Well, the answer is it came from your parents? But where did your parents get it from? Well, they got it from their parents and their parents. Got it from their mom and dad and it goes all the way back to the First mom called e. And the first dad told Adam, here's how it works. In the Garden of Eden, Adam
disobeyed. God's and he ate from that forbidden fruit. Got contaminated. Hated by sin because he sent he passed his sin on to his children. Then it got passed on to his grandchildren and every single human being on the Earth was staying by this thing called sin. Okay? Before you see what happens to my friends. Next. Let me just back up a minute and not only we stained by sin. But the moment that Adam disobeyed God is the same
moment. The atoms flesh began to decay, in other words, death entered into the world. Because Adam sinned, once every single one of us will die. You will one day enter into her grave because of Adam's sin, but I know exactly what you're thinking. You're thinking Joe that just totally is not fair. Why should we all suffer? Because of one man's mistake? Well, the truth is this, that's often how the cookie crumbles.
In our society. We live by one man's decision and the rest of us have to face the consequences. For instance, a politician makes a mistake in the white house, or in the houses of Parliament. Element and their decision has ramifications on the rest of us. In the sports world. One player, commits a foul, and the rest of the team, suffer the penalty from that wand sports player making a mistake. You see often when one person makes a mistake.
It does have a ripple effect. But again, I can hear exactly what you're thinking. You're saying to me, Joe. If I was in Adam shoes, I wouldn't have made the same mistake. Well, can I ask you this? Are you sure about that? Are you sure you would not have eaten of that forbidden fruit? BC. Am I the only one that when I walked past a sign and it says, wet paint do not touch, am I the only person who reaches out their finger and just touches that, that paint, just to make
sure it's definitely words. I don't think I am the only person. And if I'm honest with myself, if I look myself, straight in the mirror, I know that if I was in the Garden of Eden, if I was in Adam shoes and God said, out of all of these trees in the garden, you can eat any of the fruits on these trees, but that one just over there. You must not eat from that fruit because she will surely die.
Die, I'm honest with myself. I think I probably would have messed up to Y because within our very core were rebellious. That's what Sin is Sin. Is basically you're saying to God, I know best, I want to run the show. God. I know better than you and looking back at my life are all the things that people have warned me. You do this. It will wreck your life. You commit this sin. It won't satisfy after the many years of looking back at my life and realizing I often ignore, good advice.
I think I too would have done the same thing. The art and did know above all remember this, some of the biggest doors swing on the tiniest of hinges. And if you understand this really quite small sentence, you will pretty much understand the whole of the Bible and human
history for that matter. Romans 5 verse 19 says this for as by one man's Disobedience and that's talking about Adam, many were made Sinners. So also by one man's obedience and that's talking about Jesus, many will Be made righteous. So take all of that into your mind. And right now I want you to picture three bank accounts. There's Adams bank accounts. Those your bank accounts. And then there's the Lord Jesus has bank account.
Okay. So let's begin with Adams bank account Adams. Bank account is full of debts, because he send, he lost everything and because your dad is broke. My dad is broke Adam. We have inherited a big, huge whopping debt and not only In debt, but we also gained Adam, sinful nature. So that's why you and I sin. That's why you.
And I do wrong things because we got our first Father's sin and it clings to our flesh to. So the first transfer that happens is Adam transfers his debt into our bank account into the whole human race. So, just like we saw at the beginning of the video, every single one of us is stained by sin and it passes down from generation to generation. There's that the important thing to remember is this well not just Stained on Our hand know from our head to our toll.
There is nothing good that dwells within our flesh. I'm not sure if that's making sense. Look the best way I can describe. It is like this. When I was a younger, man. I used to be a youth leader for five years. I led a Christian Youth Group. And after we taught the young people, the Bible, you don't, we used to do, we play pool with the kids and it was really interesting because where the church was it was built on a coal mine.
So all of the surface was on even And you can imagine what happened when we're playing pool as we hit the pool balls, all of the balls lean down into One Direction because the surface was so on. Even the, my dear friends. That's kind of what sin is like. We have a leaning towards sin. Our flesh, constantly desires sin, and were drawn to sinful things by Nature. So what did I try and do to
counter this? Well, I would get big chunks of cardboard and I would roll them up and try and straighten out the pool table, put it under the legs. And Make the Surface. Even did it work. It didn't really the balls would still lean towards one side and that's what man tries to do. They try to put cardboard under the pool table of their life to straighten themselves out to make themselves seem better to save themselves. But the truth is this, we are sin damaged and we are helpless
and we need a savior. Okay. So here's the second transfer, our accounts, which is full of debts. Was then transferred into Jesus account. So the sins of the world were deposited on Jesus Christ. When he hung there and died on the cross, he took the debts from all of our sins in his body. When he was nailed to the tree. The Bible says, between the sixth and the ninth hour, Darkness fell on the land and between those three hours, something really? Dark really did happen.
God's Wrath was poured out in all of its fullness on the Lord. Jesus Christ. Not because Jesus is Done anything wrong because all of our sins were accredited into Jesus Christ account. So, when Jesus was hanging on that cross, he was paying off our debts. So, in other words, the one who had never ever told a lie who's being punished as if he was a liar. The one who had never ever stole anything was being punished as
if he was a thief. The one who was totally pure was being punished as if he was the most in pure vile. And ever to walk on this earth and the one who is totally gentle and kind was being punished as if he was a murderer. Mark my words.
Dear friends. The Lord Jesus Christ was dying on the cross, not because he done anything wrong because you and I are all of those things that we've just listed above and that leads us on to the third and final transfer, which is only for the Christian. This is for the man or the woman who has put their faith in the Lord Jesus. Us Christ who has realized that they are helpless who is realized that they are a sinner and the only by Jesus Christ paying off their debt. On the cross.
That is the only way they can get into heaven. That is the only way they can be acceptable in God's eyes. So, for those people something, which is famously been called The Great Exchange happens. So, as we thought about a moment ago, the worst of us is accredited into Jesus account and then the best of Jesus Christ. There are Riches of the Lord Jesus. Christ is accredited into the Believers account, his riches, his kindness. His love is transferred into the
believes accounts. So God, no longer sees Joe Kirby and his, vileness is drug taken. His violence is impure, eyes is on kindness, his unthankfulness. God doesn't see me anymore. He sees the beauties of the Lord, Jesus Christ. And if you're a Believer standing here right now, God doesn't see you and all of your faults and your flaws. He sees you as a spiritual millionaire. Because you're clothed in the beauties of the Lord Jesus Christ. So okay, there's no point
pretending. We did lose a lot throughout him. But we gained far more through the Lord, Jesus Christ and just before I go back to my friends. I need to ask you you personally, this question has Jesus washed away your sins when he shed his blood on that cross. Have you received that sacrifice and that blood which can wash your whites and snow and make you clean in God's eyes.
Have you had your Send transferred on the Lord, Jesus Christ and he's transferred his righteousness into your account. Because the way God looks at this world is the only sees, basically two people, you're either an atom or you're in Christ. You're either stuck in your sinful nature and you're destined to death and punishment or you put your trust in the Lord. Jesus Christ. And he set you free and he's given you eternal life. Here's how it works.
When I was 18 years old. I asked the Lord. Lord, Jesus Christ to be my savior, and to forgive me of all my sins. And so, I was washed and made totally clean. Wesley. How old were you? When Jesus washed away, your sins. I was 15 years old Emma. How old were you? When Jesus washed away, your sins. I was 19 years, old Jack. How old were you? When Jesus washed away, your sins. I was 19 real. How old were you when Jesus washed away, your sins?
So, over to you. Now. How old were you when Jesus washed away, your Please leave it in the comment box below and if the answer is he hasn't yet? Well, what are you waiting for?
