Paul Tripp on Marriage (Part 2)

Principle 2: Sin causes us to shrink our lives to the size of our lives.

1. The DNA of sin is selfishness.

2. Sin, in its fundamental form, is anti-social - it causes us to dehumanise others, treating others as either vehicles or obstacles in our lives. Sin destroys relationships.

3. God will not sacrifice His throne to place us on it.

"For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again." - 2 Corinthians 5:14-15 (NIV)
