Sin and Redemption


Q.What is sin?A.Sin is the seeking of our own will instead of the will of God, thus 
     distorting our relationship with God, with other people, and with all creation.

Q. How does sin have power over us?
A.  Sin has power over us because we lose our liberty when our relationship with God is 
      distorted.  


Q. What is redemption?
A.  Redemption is the act of God which sets us free from the power of evil, sin, and death.  
Q.  How did God prepare us for redemption?
A.  God sent the prophets to call us back to himself, to show us our need for redemption, 
      and to announce the coming of the Messiah.  


Q. What is meant by the Messiah?
A.  The Messiah is one sent by God to free us from the power of sin, so that with the help 
      of God we may live in harmony with God, within ourselves, with our neighbors, 
      and with all creation.  

Q. Who do we believe is the Messiah?
A.  The Messiah, or Christ, is Jesus of Nazareth, the only Son of God.
