Here are 3 major reasons not to sin.
1. It diminishes and taints the glory of the Father.
2. It crucifies afresh the Lord Jesus Christ
3. It vexes and grieves the Holy Spirit.
Sin and Satan
Until we have sinned – Satan is a parasite; when we have sinned – Satan is a tyrant
Thomas Brooks, Precious Remedies against Satan’s Devices, Works, Vol. 1, p. 17
God Not The Author Of Sin
God is never the Author of sin, but He is always the Avenger of sin
Bruised
Richard Sibbes says,
“…there is more mercy in Christ than sin in us…it is better to go bruised to heaven than sound to hell.”
The Bruised Reed, p. 47
Knowledge of Sin
J C Ryle says that “the plain truth is that a right knowledge of sin lies at the root of all saving Christianity.”
(Holiness, p. 1)
