1 | what does "falling away" mean? | Heb 6:6 | CDBJ | 106287 | ||
Well then using that as the thesis are you saying then that we are forgiven then because we forgive others; isn’t it because Jesus paid the price for them that we can be forgiven? If the aforementioned is true, with your case and point, then I could have been forgiven of my sins with out the need for Christ to come in the flesh and pay for them. I wouldn’t necessarily have had to trust in Christ’s work on the cross for my sin problem, I could just forgive others and the problem would be solved but we both know that isn’t the case. CDBJ |

2 | what does "falling away" mean? | Heb 6:6 | Morant61 | 106289 | ||
Greetings CDBJ! My 'thesis' is simply that words like 'confess', 'repent', 'believe', and 'receive' are basically synonmous and all refer to the same attitude of heart. So, I don't see any great difference between 'asking for forgiveness' and 'confessing my sins'. I believe that the attitude is the same in both. But, the point of my post wasn't to start a rabbit trail! :-) I was simply pointing out the poster that we need to rely on God's promises, not our feelings. Well, I have to get to bed now my friend!

I agree and it is a moot between the two of us because we both know the author! Have a great day, CDBJ | ||||||
