The phrase "He restoreth my soul" in the 23rd Psalm is better translated in the original Hebrew, He brings me back to repentance. God, through the Holy Spirit convicts His own of their sin. I agree with what you said. Because we are still flesh on this earth, we must continually deal with our sin before God. We must confess, turn, to turn means to have a change of heart. To confess and turn from the sin. There is a daily cleansing, hourly cleansing, cleansing after sin we have been convicted of that should occur in a Christians life. | ||||||

1 John 1:7-9 but if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. The word walk is a great word in the Greek PERIPATEO, it is one foot out in front at a time. If you try to stop with one foot up in the air while you are moving it will through you off balance. When we get off balance and sin then we need the rest of the I John 1:9 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Repentance has two objects one for the unbeliever and one for the believer. The risen living Word for the unbeliever and the living written Word for the believer. Revelation 3:20 is for the believer or child the God is trying to get his act back together. Rev. 3:19-20 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. 20Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. We try to do our best but we still have the old sin nature along with our new nature. Romans 7:24-25 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? 25I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. Won't it be nice when this is over and we are out of here! CDBJ |
