I wanted to share a picture of what was pressed upon me the other day which put a somewhat poignant face on sin and how we might view willful sin in our lives.
It takes but 5 verses from the birth of the twins to where we see Esau sell his birthright. This paints such a horrid picture of willful sin. How contemptible we consider the blood of Christ when we commit sin and how paltry we view our adoption that we would sell it off for a little stew and a few crusts of bread.
Such a merciful God we serve!
