Love does not rejoice in iniquity but rejoices in the truth. I Corinthians 13:6
Iniquity has many definitions in the Bible but to name a few it literally means: crookedness, perverseness, evil regarded as not straight or upright, to go astray, or an evil lifestyle! Today many live an iniquitous life unaware of God's displeasure as they continue to live in their sins and rebellion!
King David who was exposed by the prophet Nathan for committing adultery with Bathsheba was confessing his sin and stated that he was brought forth in iniquity and in sin, his mother conceived him. That is true because all have sinned and inherited the curse of sin and death from Adam!
We live in a society that revels in iniquity and rejoices in sin calling evil good and good evil but as the people of God, we are to rejoice in the truth of His Word that sets us free from sin and from the very iniquity that sends people to Hell! God forgave David for his iniquity although the consequences of his sin followed him to the grave!
Purge me with hyssop and I shall be clean; wash me and I will be whiter than snow, make me to hear joy and gladness, that the bones You have broken may rejoice. Hide Your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquities. Psalm 51:7-9
