Sin Then and Now

In Sin Then and Now, Dr. Johnny Jenkins offers a profound and uncompromising exploration into one of the most enduring and controversial subjects in theology: the reality, origin, and unchanging nature of sin. With deep biblical insight and scholarly conviction, Jenkins takes readers on a spiritual and intellectual journey from the Garden of Eden to modern day society tracing the relentless influence of sin across centuries, cultures, and human hearts.Grounded in scripture and enriched with the teachings of notable theologians, the book delves into the doctrinal essence of sin not just as an action, but as a nature, a condition, and a spiritual affliction that transcends generations. Dr. Jenkins masterfully explains how sin blinds, divides, and distorts humanity's relationship with God, with one another, and with truth itself. He courageously addresses how sin is often glossed over in today's politically correct culture and even within the church, where the doctrine of sin is frequently neglected for fear of offense.Through compelling analysis, Sin Then and Now exposes the devastating societal and spiritual consequences of moral decay, including its manifestations in pride, self-centeredness, political corruption, and social injustice. Dr. Jenkins boldly argues that without a return to biblical truth and repentance, the modern world like the ancient nations before it faces inevitable divine reckoning.Yet, within this hard-hitting message lies profound hope. Jenkins doesn't just diagnose the disease; he points to the cure: the redemptive power of Jesus Christ, whose sacrifice is the only antidote to sin's eternal consequences. Readers are urged to confront their own moral condition and embrace the grace that can only be found in the blood of the Savior.Rich in theology, conviction, and clarity, Sin Then and Now is both a warning and a call to spiritual renewal. It's a wakeup call for a world distracted by convenience and compromise and a compelling reminder that sin, though timeless in its nature, is not beyond the reach of divine redemption.
