If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that his word has no place in our hearts. – 1 John 1:8,10(NLT)
IF WE CLAIM WE ARE SINLESS
A poem and essay by ILMA
All of mankind have an inclination to sin
We all need a Savior to help us win
If we claim we have no sin, we are fools
We are in denial and not thinking it through.
If we continue to believe that we are sinless
We are calling God a liar and we are faithless
Only Jesus is without sin despite being a human
Only he can claim he is sinless though he was a man.

I don’t know of anyone who have never ever sinned in his or her life. Some people are blinded by the enemy to think that they are sinless. I think only those who do not know the truth can ever think that they have no sin. Once you get revelations about the truth in God’s word, you will have light and wisdom to admit that you can never be sinless because that is our nature as humans. Those who claim that they are sinless are only fooling themselves and not living in truth. Making such a claim is a defiance to God’s truth.
PRAYER
Lord, give me a heart that examines my deeds in your eyes.
REFLECTION
Why do you think some people claim they are without sin?
