What does the Gospel say about our bondage to sin?

The Gospel outlines the desperate condition of humanity, bound in sin and unable to free ourselves from this tyranny. Romans 5 describes how sin reigned in death, likened to Israel’s slavery in Egypt. Just as God sent Moses to liberate His chosen people, He sent Jesus Christ to deliver us from sin's grasp, demonstrating through His incarnation and sacrifice that He is the I AM who sees our afflictions and hears our cries. Our freedom comes only through His grace and power, affirming the necessity of placing our faith in Him as our Savior.
