God cannot tolerate sin because of His holiness-He is completely without any wrong. Many people only think of sin as a type of crime-something done against society. Sin is more than a crime, it is a transgression against God. Even though you may be a very moral person, the Bible says that you are still a sinner. "As it is written, there is none righteous, no, not one..." (Romans 3:10). "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" (Romans 5:12).

Is it enough to try to keep the commandments? No. "For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all" (James 2:10).

What is the end result of sin? Spiritual death. "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 6:23).

"Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels" (Matthew 25:41)
