Giving Away All My Sins, Pt. 1 (Alma 22:18)

March 16, 2006

“And I will give away all my sins to know thee.” (Alma 22:18)

That’s the choice, isn’t it? I have my sins and desires on one side and God on the other. I want to have my cake (God) and eat it too (my sins).

It doesn’t work that way.

Do I want to know God more than I want chocolate?

Do I want to know Him more than I want to watch off-color television shows?

Do I want to know Him more than I want to be angry?

Nice message. I just published a hymn based on that verse:
