And when you spread forth your hands, I will hide my eyes from you: yea, when you make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood. Wash you, make yourself clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; cease to do evil; Learn to do good; seek justice, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow. Come now, and let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land: But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it. Isaiah 1:15-20
Nothing unholy can come near to God and He does not tolerate what is evil. This does not mean sin can affect God. Sin does not affect God in anyway when we commit one, God is so holy and perfect that whatever He touches become clean.
Sin rather makes us unholy and hinder us from getting near to a holy God. We can only hide from God whennour deeds are evil because light and darkness has relationship.
Though God hates sin he has the power to cleanse us from all unrighteouness and to make us whole if only we can come to Him and confess our sins.
He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins if we confess them. It is not about making great sacrifices and making many prayerd to him but making a strong decision to so away with sin.
In our capacity as humans we cannot save ourselves or deliver oursleves from the power of sin and that is why there is a need to go to God whenever we commit sin. If only we can confess our sins to Him he will forgive us cleanse us.
It doesn't matter the magnitude of our sin, we can still be forgiven. God is still calling those that are helpless and have lost hope trying so hard to stop sinning to come to Him today. sinners are the main reason why He sent His son Jesus Christ to come to the workd to give his life as a ransom for our sins.
The God that invited the people of Jerusalem in the olden days to come for forgiveness and still calling everyone today. He says, "Come now, and let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool".
