PENALTY OF SIN
(Hamartiology : Doctrine Of Sin)
SECTION 1: REASON FOR PENALTY
1. God Commanded It
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
2. So That Our World Will Not Be In Chaos
a. Hell Was Prepared Originally For Satan
Matthew 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
b. Because We Followed And Join Satan's Side, That's Why It Is Natural For Us To Follow Satan To Burn In Hell
John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
SECTION 2: HISTORY OF PENALTY
1. God Left Man Alone And Drove Man Out Of His Life
Genesis 3:24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
2. God Saw The Wickedness Of Man Was Great On The Earth Because They Created Chaos And Wiped Them Out In Flood
Genesis 6:5-6 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
3. God Decided He Will Create Laws
Deuteronomy 4:40 Thou shalt keep therefore his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days upon the earth, which the LORD thy God giveth thee, for ever.
4. God Started To Give Out High Standards Of Law And The Penalty Is Severe
a. Not Keeping The Sabbath Day Will Be Stoned To Death
Exodus 31:15 Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
b. Worship Any Other God's Will Be Stoned To Death
Leviticus 20:2 Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
c. Cursing Parents, Adultery, Incest, Homosexuality, Sorcery Will Be Stoned To Death
Leviticus 20:9-13, 27 For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
10 And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
11 And the man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
12 And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood shall be upon them.
13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
27 A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood shall be upon them.
d. Taking God's Name In Vain Will Be Put To Death
Leviticus 24:16 And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the LORD, shall be put to death.
5. God Wants To Show Us To Don't Take It Lightly And He's Serious About It
Romans 7:12-13 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
13 Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.
6. No Matter How High The Standards God Put, People Still Break God's Law
Romans 2:23 Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?
7. Because The High Standards Of The Law Cannot Be Kept, God Then Make Faith By Christ As The Solution
Romans 3:19-22 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
SECTION 3: VARIATIONS OF PENALTY
1. Every Sin One Committed Will Be Made Sure He Is Fairly Paid For
Galatians 6:7-8 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
* You reap what you sow
2. When On Sin, The Sin Can Effect The Next Generation
Romans 5:12, 14 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
3. The Burning Level Of Hell Varies Depending On How Much One Sins
Matthew 23:14 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
4. Besides Paying For Sins In Hell, God Can Also Punish Us
Zechariah 8:14 For thus saith the LORD of hosts; As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the LORD of hosts, and I repented not:
* example: hurricane, flood
* Punishment means an angry God giving the sinner what he deserves
5. A Christian Gets Chastisement (Father Punishing His Son As Love)
Hebrews 12:6-7 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
* Lost people don’t get chasticement
* Chasticement is a loving God directing a christian back to the right path
6. Chasticement Is Different From God's Punishment To The Lost People
1 Corinthians 11:32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.
SECTION 4: TYPES OF PENALTY (BOTH SAVED AND LOST PEOPLE)
1. Will Only Enjoy The Best Of Life Temporarily
Hebrews 11:25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
2. You Reap What You Sow
Galatians 6:7-8 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
3. Has No Peace In Live
Isaiah 57:21 There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.
4. One Has To Take Care Of The Consequences Themselves
Luke 12:29-30 And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind.
30 For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things.
5. We Will Be Denied Of Prayer
1 John 3:22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
6. We Will Loose Joy
John 15:10-11 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
7. We Get Frustrated
Romans 7:18, 24 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
8. Our Conscience Pricks Us
Romans 13:5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.
9. We Can Be Demon Possessed In Our Body
1 Timothy 1:19-20 Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:
20 Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
10. We Can Get A Certain Disease Or God Can Kill Us
1 Corinthians 11:30-31 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
11. We Can Get A Tragic Death
Psalms 31:10 For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.
SECTION 5: TYPES OF PENALTIES (FOR CHRISTIANS)
1. Scourged Or Chasticed By God
Hebrews 12:6-7 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
* Scourged = whipped
2. Loose Blessings
James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
3. Loose Heavenly Inheritence
Galatians 5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
* loose heavenly inheritance does not mean loose salvation. it means loosing our rewards or reigning with Christ Jesus.
4. Face Unspeakable Terror In The Judgement Seat Of Christ
2 Corinthians 5:10-11 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.
SECTION 6: TYPES OF PENALTIES FOR SINNERS (LOST SINNERS)

3. Will Have No God To Guide Them
1 Corinthians 2:10, 14 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
4. Will Have No Assurance After Death
1 John 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
5. Will Be Judged In Terror And Cast Into The Lake Of Fire
Revelation 20:11-15 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
6. A Burning Hell For All Eternity
