People sin out of their own choice. God isn’t causing anyone to sin. So, the sin that individuals have—it is their responsibility to rectify. And the only way of rectification is through Christ. That’s what Paul is warning people. Anyone can be a good person. Anyone can do good things, good deeds if you will. People can be givers of their time, givers of wealth, help the homeless, help the sick, whatever you want to name. At the end of the day, though, good deeds don’t make up for the bad deeds. That’s the warning. It’s not a weight scale where bad is outweighed with good. A lot of individuals believe that’s the way it works. As a matter of fact, that’s what most of us were taught growing up. You do something bad as a child, and then you make it good by doing something good. It seemingly, in most cases, erases the previous bad that was done. That’s not how dealing with our sin works. It’s an all-or-nothing proposition. We are either covered by Christ’s blood and made clean, or we are not.
