b"When we hear the word \\u201csin,\\u201d we think we know what it means. But we don\\u2019t\\u2014not really.\\xa0\\nIf we don\\u2019t understand sin, then Christianity makes no sense. But even more so, if we don\\u2019t understand sin, then the knowledge of God\\u2019s love and grace won\\u2019t really transform or heal us. So how do we find out what the Bible means by sin? By looking at Jonah, who\\u2019s said to be very religious, and seeing how he falls into terrible sin, we can then get a good idea of what sin is.\\xa0\\nIn the story of Jonah, we see him doing four things. And each one of them tells us something about the real nature of sin. We see Jonah 1) running, 2) sleeping, 3) sinking, and 4) rising.\\nThis sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on October 26, 1997.
