Whenever I Sin, which is pretty much every hour of every day....( how about you?) ...I do the same thing with it that God does —- I put it on the Cross......and leave it there, to be “ Remembered No More”..................The Legalist will tell that that Type Of Thinking just “ Has “ to lead to more Sin.....A Wise Believer That actually follows Gods remedy for sin—- who knows how to BOLDLY go to the Throne Of Grace to obtain that Grace in your time of need knows that the Truth is just the opposite.....Ones “ Boldness” is in direct proportion to one’s Faith in the Shed Blood
Jesus died for my Sins....that bring True, what Sin could I ever commit that could be used to damn me? If you answer “ None”, go to the head of the class....

If you answer “ None”, go to the head of the class.... One thing I constantly find myself reminding those of like persuasion with me, and find myself reminding myself, is that while all the methods and disciplines and reminders and even doctrines, and the goodness of God to us, and the work of the Spirit of God within us —all the things that impel us to obedience— are great and useful, ultimately the flesh does not submit to them anyhow. The 'Old Man' remains, even in the believer, at enmity with God. After all of God's graciousness and even in my desire for him, I am more than capable of rebelling and doing something, 'because I want to', or for even less reason than that! And those things have to do with the things I KNOW I am doing. And I disagree with the notion (not saying that you implied it) that the things I don't know about, or don't think about, or that the Spirit has not shown me yet, are not also rebellion... |

We can all take comfort knowing that Paul had to endure this same struggle .....when he confessed that he did “ the things that he hated” , he was NOT referring to things that he did in the past......he was speaking in the present tense....most Bible readers try to twist Romans 7 into something that it isn’t.....God worked wonders in Paul’s life......Gods Transforming Power produced a Heart full of Love in Paul , But just like us , he was born a sinner and died a sinner....a man that needed and received the Grace of God...
