Every Deadly Sin Explained in 9 Minutes (with emojis) · Off The Kirb Ministries

• 0:00
  OK, I want you guys to take a look at these three emojis and
• 0:03
  then wait to see if you can guess correctly which of the
• 0:07
  seven deadly sins they represent.
• 0:09
  Are you ready? Well, let's go first one.
• 0:12
  What sin comes to mind? A crown, a mirror, and a sassy
• 0:17
  manicure. That's right, pride.
• 0:20
  The big one. The sin that says I am the main
• 0:23
  character and everyone else is just background extras.
• 0:26
  It's often called the queen of sins because it's where all the
• 0:29
  others sprout from. It's the sin that got Lucifer
• 0:32
  kicked out of heaven. And it's the sin that very often
• 0:35
  stops people from coming to Jesus because they believe that
• 0:38
  they are already good people and they would never dream of crying
• 0:41
  out to God to have mercy on them for all of their wrongdoing.
• 0:44
  Now, if you found the first round difficult, this one gets
• 0:47
  much easier. Check this out.
• 0:49
  We've got money bags, a cash face and a bank.
• 0:56
  Yes, I'm talking about greed. The one that whispers just a
• 1:00
  little more and then I'll be happy.
• 1:02
  But spoiler alerts you won't. It's just like what the genie
• 1:05
  said when Aladdin was considering using one of his
• 1:07
  wishes to make himself incredibly rich.
• 1:09
  Do me a favour, do not drink from that cup.
• 1:12
  I promise you there is not enough money and power on earth
• 1:16
  for you to be satisfied. Hey, this next part's a little
• 1:19
  bit important so you might just want to catch this, but in a
• 1:22
  moment I'm going to share with you which of these embarrassing
• 1:25
  sins I personally struggle with the most, and I think the answer
• 1:30
  might just shock you. OK, we're in round 3 and we've
• 1:33
  got eyes, a broken heart and green.
• 1:37
  Have you got it? Envy.
• 1:41
  That's the sin that says why should they have what I don't?
• 1:45
  Jealousy turns you bitter real quick, and it makes it nearly
• 1:50
  impossible to see the current blessings that God has placed in
• 1:53
  your life. Because as President Theodore
• 1:55
  Roosevelt once said, comparison is the thief of joy.
• 1:59
  Round 4. Now we've got a smirk, face fire
• 2:02
  and a kiss. Yes, it's lust.
• 2:08
  It's the one that promises thrill but leaves you empty.
• 2:12
  It's the sin that never satisfies and the one that no
• 2:15
  one ever likes to talk about. But we must bring this one to
• 2:18
  light. Because out of all of these
• 2:20
  deadly sins, this is the one that grows in the dark, right?
• 2:24
  Trust me, if you've not guessed a single one correctly so far,
• 2:27
  you will get this one because it's pretty obvious.
• 2:30
  We've got pizza, burgers, fries. Come on.
• 2:38
  I'm talking about gluttony. We often think of overeating,
• 2:42
  but it's more than that. It's anything that we consume in
• 2:45
  excess, even Netflix or scrolling on videos all day
• 2:49
  long. But the Japanese have a
• 2:50
  principle which they call Harahachi Boo, which effectively
• 2:54
  means stop eating once you are 80% full.
• 2:58
  And I think you and I could learn a thing or two from the
• 3:00
  Japanese because the Bible does warn about those whose God is
• 3:04
  their belly and whose appetite rules their lives.
• 3:08
  We are now down to the last two sins on our list.
• 3:11
  So here's number six. We've got an angry face fire and
• 3:16
  a comic style rage symbol. That's easy, isn't it?
• 3:20
  Wrath or wrath? If you're American, you probably
• 3:24
  know that not all anger is wrong.
• 3:26
  For instance, being angry and injustice is actually a good
• 3:29
  thing. And Jesus himself showed
• 3:31
  righteous anger when he drove the money changers out of the
• 3:34
  Holy Temple. So what type of anger are we
• 3:36
  talking about? What type is actually wrong?
• 3:39
  Well, we're describing an anger which is out of control, like
• 3:43
  losing your temper over minor things.
• 3:45
  For instance, when a driver uses all kinds of colorful language
• 3:48
  when they have road rage, or a person who goes crazy when you
• 3:51
  say or do something that offends them.
• 3:54
  And finally, our last on the list of the seven deadly sins is
• 3:58
  we have bed, a sleepy face, and a sloth.
• 4:05
  Well, the last emoji basically gave the game away, didn't it?
• 4:09
  Sloth. This isn't just laziness though.
• 4:12
  It's ignoring the good things that we should be doing, like
• 4:15
  when you procrastinate for three hours instead of doing your
• 4:18
  homework or your chores. We sometimes go easy on this sin
• 4:22
  and even find it funny. But if you think it's a joke,
• 4:24
  just read the book of Proverbs. Because God's Word calls this
• 4:27
  person a sluggard and shows us that the slothful person
• 4:31
  effectively achieves nothing with their life.
• 4:34
  So come on now, talk to me. How many did you get right?
• 4:37
  123 or even all 7. Well, here's the part you've all
• 4:40
  been waiting for. Which of these sins do you think
• 4:43
  that I struggle with the most? Well, before I embarrass myself
• 4:47
  on the entire Internet, would you first let me know which of
• 4:50
  these seven deadly sins you also struggle with?
• 4:53
  Type yours in the comments section because it might just
• 4:56
  help someone else to not feel so alone in this.
• 4:59
  OK, it's my turn. In all honesty, I struggle with
• 5:04
  all seven of these sins in different ways, but if I could
• 5:07
  only pick one, if I'm completely transparent with you, it would
• 5:12
  be lost. Now, if you only remember one
• 5:14
  thing from this video, remember this.
• 5:16
  For those of you who also struggle with lust, I want you
• 5:18
  to know something. It never truly disappears, even
• 5:21
  if you managed to completely stop watching.
• 5:24
  You know what? And that's really what happened
• 5:26
  to me. I thought once I escaped those
• 5:28
  lonely nights on the Internet and vowed to God that I would
• 5:31
  never do it again, my mind would be finally free.
• 5:33
  Well, all glory to God alone. He did set me free from watching
• 5:38
  that stuff. But even years later, I'm still
• 5:41
  ashamed of some of the thoughts I think.
• 5:43
  You know, simple tasks like driving, walking down the
• 5:46
  street, and even going to the beach.
• 5:47
  I have to cover it in prayer because I know just how weak I
• 5:51
  am in this area. But hey, I know exactly what
• 5:54
  you're thinking right now. Well Joe, what's the point of
• 5:56
  quitting the other stuff if you're telling me years on later
• 5:59
  you're still struggling with lust even though you've got why?
• 6:02
  Why should I bother quitting in the 1st place?
• 6:05
  Well, I can promise you this, things would be a lot easier if
• 6:09
  I did not waste my youth filling my mind with all of this junk
• 6:13
  for hours and hours daily. Guys, it is critical that you
• 6:17
  understand this. Your heart is like a garden and
• 6:21
  there are seeds that were planted in my garden at just 13
• 6:24
  years of age which eventually one day would grow into a
• 6:28
  monstrous tree. A tree that was so big I could
• 6:30
  never cuss it down. But the Lord Jesus Christ took
• 6:34
  his strong axe and he did chop it down for me.
• 6:37
  Friends, you do realize this, don't you, That whatever sins
• 6:41
  you struggle with, whatever the Goliath is in your life, God can
• 6:45
  give you the ability to defeat this sin.
• 6:47
  Will you still struggle with it? Yes.
• 6:49
  Just like David who did defeat Goliath after he took him down.
• 6:53
  He still had battles to face in his life.
• 6:55
  And you will always battle. We'll never ever be the finished
• 6:58
  product until the Lord Jesus Christ returns.
• 7:01
  None of us are ever perfect. Are we only Jesus's.
• 7:04
  But the one who rose from the grave, the one who promises us
• 7:06
  from his resurrection, we are now dead to sin.
• 7:09
  He can give us hope, the Lord Jesus Christ.
• 7:12
  He can restore your dignity today and he can give you a new
• 7:15
  beginning. Why?
• 7:16
  Because it's not just seven of the deadly sins that were paid
• 7:19
  for at Calvary, but thousands and thousands, millions and
• 7:22
  billions. Every sin that was ever
• 7:24
  committed was nailed to that cross with Jesus Christ, and he
• 7:28
  paid the price for those sins with his very blood.
• 7:31
  So even though we we do mess up, and we do, when God looks at us,
• 7:35
  he doesn't see our daily failures anymore.
• 7:37
  He sees us as pure as snow because Christ's blood has
• 7:41
  washed us clean and has made us righteous in God's eyes.
• 7:45
  I do hope you know that personally for yourself.
• 7:48
  I do hope that you've believed upon the precious name of the
• 7:51
  Lord Jesus Christ for salvation and forgiveness.
• 7:54
  Because if you haven't, what are you waiting for?
• 7:56
  Humble yourself and ask the Lord Jesus Christ to cleanse you of
• 8:00
  all sin and to come and live side of your heart.
• 8:03
  But please listen to me. I can't just leave all of my
• 8:06
  precious brothers and sisters in Christ who are saying to me
• 8:09
  right now, yes, I am struggling with lust.
• 8:11
  I can't leave you without offering you help today.
• 8:14
  And the best part of this help is it's totally free.
• 8:17
