Thematic Bible: What sin does


Thematic Bible




Truly, the Lord's hand has not become short, so that he is unable to give salvation; and his ear is not shut from hearing: But your sins have come between you and your God, and by your evil doings his face has been veiled from you, so that he will give you no answer.

But the heart of this people is uncontrolled and turned away from me; they are broken loose and gone. And they do not say in their hearts, Now let us give worship to our God, who gives the rain, the winter and the spring rain, at the right time; who keeps for us the ordered weeks of the grain-cutting. Through your evil-doing these things have been turned away, and your sins have kept back good from you.
