Short excerpt from a YouTube sermon (uploaded by Derek Cole) arguing that modern people are "too busy" for God—prioritizing work and pleasure over God. The speaker urges giving God first place, describes Christ as Lord who died to forgive sins, and states the universal human problem is sin (all have sinned and fall short of God's glory).
Chapters
And then the scripture says that the people of Sodom were too busy for God. They were too busy making a living and having all their pleasures to give any time to God. And that's the way we are. We don't give God first place in our lives. God doesn't demand a legalistic system under which we live, but he does demand first place in our lives. He wants to be the Lord that sits on the throne of your life and controls your life and rules your life. And that's why he sent his son Jesus Christ to die on the cross and shed his blood so that our sins could be forgiven. Because you see, the problem in the world today is pronounced with one word, sin. And the Bible says we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God. We're all sinners. We were born in sin. We're sinners by choice, and we're sinners by practice. And that sin.
