John 15:22

NKJ: If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.

NIV: I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin.

COMMENT: Because I heard the gospel, I am now responcible for my sin. Jesus said, here is the way, now it's up to me to take action for my sin. Tis way is beleiving in Jesus Christ, accepting Him as my saviour, His sacrifice, His payment for my sin as for my own. Now that I have heard His gospel, I have no excuse for my sin. I hope this came out right.

FYI: Read the entire passage for context. Read John 3:16 for "The Way".
