"Sin is anything that disobeys anything that displeases God... Sin is wrong, can you say wrong? Sin is wrong and sin has a cost. Romans 6:23 says for the wages of sin is death, the wages of sin is death." [31:35]( | | )

"Death is more appropriately defined as the separation from God... where God is not there is no peace, where God is not there is no order, where God is not there is no wholeness, where God is not there is no healing, where God is not there is no good and where God is not no life is." [34:50]( | | )

"Your sin, my sin creates a separation between us and God... we choose to be Sinners... we're going to do something that disobeys God, we're going to do something that displeases God, we're going to do something that puts self over submission, meaning that we do something to serve ourselves over the submission of Jesus Christ." [36:16]( | | )

"The bad news is there is no sacrifice that we can make, there is no gift that we can give, there is no life that we can live that will make up for our sinfulness in light of a holy God... This idea of sacrifice... is woven into the fabric of mankind." [40:02]( | | )

"Jesus gets ready to enter the city of Jerusalem for Passover... the Sunday that the Lamb of God would walk through the city Gates of Jerusalem to be the ultimate and perfect sacrifice for you and for me and also for them, for all of us." [45:17]( | | )

"Jesus, the Lamb of God, left heaven and he came and he dwelt in the house of Israel where he was around his brothers and sisters... imagine the pain that you would feel to know that you had loved on this lamb... only for you to take it through and for it to be inspected, for it to be perfect, for it to be slaughtered to pay the price for your sin." [58:15]( | | )

"The Lamb of God was inspected and found to be without fault, without stain, without blemish, perfect in every way, a worthy sacrifice for your sin and my sin... there's nothing you can do to be united with God, there's nothing you can do to save your eternity apart from Jesus Christ." [01:00:58]( | | )

"It is by grace through faith that you are saved, not of works lest no man should boast... It's the grace of God and then faith that saves you... the only gospel that matters is the gospel unto salvation." [01:02:25]( | | )

"Those sacrifices are an annual reminder of sins... it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins... when Jesus shed his blood your sin wasn't just covered, it was forgiven, it was paid for." [01:04:38]( | | )

"We have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once and for all... by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy... Jesus is enough, it's not Jesus plus anything else." [01:07:18]( | | )
