If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 1 John 1:8 NIV
Ever wondered how a worm gets inside an apple? Interestingly enough it does not burrow from the outside, but rather an insect lays an egg in the apple blossom. Sometime later, the worm hatches in the heart of the apple, then eats his way out. Sin, like the worn, begins in the heart and works out through a person's thoughts, words, and actions.
We are not sinful because we sin, we sin because we are sinners by nature, it’s what we produce and it comes out of a natural tendency that we are all born with. The good news is that God can and has taken care of this for us, and the only reason God’s word tells us that we are sinners is to show us our need of a Saviour.
Your heavenly Father has done everything a God of love can do to save us from our sins and His solution for our sin problem was Jesus’ death on the cross.
