Why does God impose consequences?
- So that we might understand that there’s a cost to sin
- So that we might understand that this is not the way it’s supposed to be
- So that we might understand that we shouldn’t do this again
- So that we might understand that we don’t live unto ourselves
- So that we might understand that there’s deliverance for this
How should we understand these consequences for us, today?
