Iniquity Ezekiel 28:15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. 2 Thessalonians 2:7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work:only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. Titus 2:14 14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. Isaiah 53:6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. Iniquity is lawlessness. It is the first sin ever committed. However lawlessness is the result of iniquity. The verb iniquity is simply self-will. Jesus showed us what a life opposite of iniquity was when he cried not my will but thine be done Iniquity isnt just self-will, but rather it is placing ourselves in the seat of God. When we have control over our own lives. Lucifer decided he was going to do his own thing, and not what God had set him to do, and as a result he fell. On the great day of judgement we will be judged by one single thing. Did we serve, or did we work iniquity? God gave us a free will, but only through surrendering that will are we truly free. Pastor taught us except a corn of wheat fall to the ground and die it abideth alone. Iniquity says I will do this, and I will do that. We need to live a life that says If God will Based on the teaching of Jesus and other passages of Scripture, iniquity is doing our own will instead of God’s will, even if our own will appears to be “doing good.” This is a very good article on iniquity. iblp.org/questions/what-iniquity
