1 | Psalm 37:24 | Rom 8:1 | Ngop | 77902 | ||
Jlpangilinan, Logically, yes, brother/sister, I agree with you. But please bear with me. Peter was with Christ throughout the 3.5 years of Christ's ministry and yet he denied Him three times. Even worse was Judas. The point I was driving at is as long as we are in this sinful flesh, we can not say that there is no chance of sinning or going back to our old sins as you said. In my opinion, the beauty of our salvation lies on the GRACE God gave and not on our capability to avoid sin, old or new. We should always separate the concept of Salvation from the concept of sinning. We try not to commit sin not because we are afraid of losing salvation. We avoid sin because we want to please God for giving us salvation. God bless, NGOP Salamat po. |

Greetings, You wrote the following and I would like to comment: __________ Jlpangilinan, Logically, yes, brother/sister, I agree with you. But please bear with me. Peter was with Christ throughout the 3.5 years of Christ's ministry and yet he denied Him three times. Even worse was Judas. The point I was driving at is as long as we are in this sinful flesh, we can not say that there is no chance of sinning or going back to our old sins as you said. In my opinion, the beauty of our salvation lies on the GRACE God gave and not on our capability to avoid sin, old or new.

We avoid sin because we want to please God for giving us salvation. God bless, NGOP Salamat po. _______________ My comments is that I agree with the way you put this. Salvation does not require man's perfection. If it did, no one could be saved. But salvation is based on Faith plus Practicing Righteousness: that brings salvation. Do you agree? If I disobey God then I fear; but when my mind is on the things of the Spirit and I walk in the light, then my mind dwells on and trust in the grace of God. I do not fear death because I know God keeps his promise. God bless, Disciplerami |
