No sin is small or inconsequential in the eyes of God. Today, R.C. Sproul reminds us of the cosmic significance of our disobedience to the Holy One, helping us think soberly about what even our slightest sin deserves.
We are the worst vandals in the universe. Any sin against God, no matter how slight it may seem in this world compared to more wicked things, nevertheless is worthy of death, because every sin, even a peccadillo committed against God, is an act of cosmic treason. It is an act by which we rise up against the Righteous One, and declare our independence, our autonomy over the one who rules by His law. It is a marring and disfiguring of the universe itself. We are the worst vandals in the universe. And if God judges me according to the standard of His righteousness, according to the standard of His law, then I realize I deserve nothing but execution.
