"WHEN IS IT OKAY TO SIN?" (3)
Well, what about God's purpose?  God wanted Adam and Eve and us all to live and to love and to enjoy the wonders of His creation.  But that did not serve their purpose.  So they brought sin and sorrow and suffering and death upon themselves and us all.
Still, it remained God's purpose that we live and love and enjoy the wonders of God's glory.  So He sent His own holy, righteous Son into the world to live the life of sorrow and suffering and death, so that we might be set free --  free to live and love and to enjoy the eternal pleasures of God's heaven.  That is God's purpose. 
Therefore, when is it okay to sin?  Never; sin never serves God's purpose -- never, ever.  It serves only the purpose of Satan and his purpose is that you be cut off from God forever, just like he is.  It is his purpose that you have sorrow and suffering and death. If sin does not serve God's purpose, how can it serve your purpose?  If it serves only Satan's purpose, how can it serve your purpose? 
The next time you are tempted to sin and you start thinking or someone suggests to you, "It's okay," remember the purpose of God: that you live and love and enjoy the eternal pleasures of God's heaven.  Then you can say, "It is never okay for me to sin."
God, help us to see your purpose for us, to rejoice in our salvation, to look forward to glory, and to live out our earthly existence in righteousness.  To this end, keep us ever assured that our sins are forgiven today and tomorrow and forever.  Hear us because Jesus died for us.  Amen.  (Prof. John Pfeiffer - Chapel 5/13/2009)
