Sin, Transgression, & Iniquity...what's the difference?

We are made up of Spirit, Soul, & Body and 1 Thessalonians 5:23 - "And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ."

Ephesians 4:23 - Be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

The spirit is the part of man that gives him God consciousness through his mind. The soul is where the Flesh (body) interacts with the Spirit creating desires and emotions.

Exodus 34:7 - keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children’s children to the third and the fourth generation.”

This verse clearly shows there is a difference between, iniquity and transgression, and sin.

Romans 3:23 -  for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of
God.

Sin - Soul
Transgression - Body
Iniquity - Spirit

Isaiah 53 v 5,10 “He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: ……thou shall make his soul an offering for sin…”

Let us all continue our journey to having 'GOD CONSCIOUSNESS'.  Choosing to have daily presence with our Lord and Savior, trusting in the Lord  In the midst of a fleshly decision, STOP, and recite this verse:

BUT SEEK FIRST HIS KINGDOM AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND ALL THESE THINGS WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU AS...
(Matthew 6:33)

Thank you Jesus...for all of us fools...that through YOU and ONLY YOU...you have promised us ETERNAL Life.  By accepting YOU, there is no longer condemnation.  With YOU...a TRUE believer will slowly become SELFLESS...turning away from the world's desire to fulfill our flesh and needs...your peace comes upon our spirit.  We, who believe in You, Lord Jesus, will continue to be hypocritical in the eyes of the world and even with each other...it don't matter what the world thinks...What you think is ALL that matters! 

God is good ....ALL THE TIME....and all the time...GOD IS GOOD!
