Sin

“Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.” James 1:12-15

Sin is like a spider’s web
Entangling its victim in a trap of death
Yet Jesus Christ came to set you free
And to bring your tormented mind true rest

So when death and hell reach out for you
And you don’t know what to do
Call upon the name of Jesus Christ
and He will see you through

“And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead.
And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me,
Fear not; I am the first and the last:
I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen;
and have the keys of hell and of death.”
Revelation 1:17-18
